Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Hello, My wife had the same problem. Doctor said it is usally the skin stretching a breaking. Using a good moisturizing cream really helped her out. Use a humidifier too, if your air is dry. balatani <no_reply> wrote: Hi friends, My wife in 29 weeks pregnancy, past four days she expriencing terrible itchy.

I was told whether or not you get stretch markings is hereditary, but I do not believe that. When I was pregnant I took bathes less frequently to prevent drying of my skin. Also when I did shower, I put the oils like olive or other kinds of oils on my skin while it was still wet. I have no stretch marks on my stomach; but many in the pubic area and legs where I did not think to add oils. By the way I am new to this group. I am already familiar with TCM, but I am interested in Tibetan medicine and Ayurveda. Cory chinesetherapeutics.org Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fine powders of Sandal and Khas(Usheer) mixed equally in cow butter(Navaneet) and make a paste.Gently apply a moderate thick over the abdomen.Twice daily.In addition a gentle massage with Bala taila also enhance the satisfactory results. balatani <no_reply> wrote: Hi friends, My wife in 29 weeks pregnancy, past four days she expriencing terrible itchy.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Dear Bala, Try the following: mix ghee with equal parts water and blend until well incorporated. Apply to the skin. Also, have her take amla (amalaki) internally: http://www.affmanager.com/bazaarofindia/aff_manager/newaff/redirect.cfm/i/20 05100310/LinkID/1 Best Wishes, Jacob Griscom, CAS Teaching Faculty: California College of Ayurveda Peaceful Living Holistic Healthcare Center 200 Providence Mine Rd.
