Pregnancy and Stretch Marks...

[Guest guest]

After reading NAFD, and a few other books with pictures

of natives, I noticed something interesting, almost a complete

lack of the multitude of stretchmarks that seem to plague

modern mothers. Some loseness of skin yes, but not the other.

I am a mother too, and have some stretchmarks, though not

many at all on my stomach.

I always hear the " gene " copout. But, I know its more than that.

Stretchmarks cannot be a sign of healthy skin. I mean, a womans

body will change a bit after pregnancy, but having skin that

cannot handle a growing uterus doesn't seem normal to me.

Any input on this?
