A resource for women to share empowering information for a positive experience before, during and after pregnancy. I certainly did not want to have any.
Exploring possibilities for health and well being. Mother's Special Blend is a unique natural product that I designed when I was planning to have a baby to help prevent stretch marks. It contains safe, nourishing, ingredients that condition and moisturize your skin. Mother’s Special Blend was created in our store in Boulder, Colorado, over 30 years ago.

Highly recommended! NOT A SINGLE STRETCH MARK :)
"Whenever any of my friends find out they (or their wife/girlfriend) are expecting a baby, this is the FIRST thing I recommend. My sister first used this in her pregnancy. She found it in some health-food store I think, and liked it because it is JUST oils, no chemicals or preservatives. After I saw how AMAZING she looked after having a baby, I knew I would use the same thing when I got pregnant (which was about a year later). I didn't get not even one stretch mark, and my skin was sooo soft. I was back in a bikini in 2 weeks (although I also credit breastfeeding, a very hungry baby, and my youth — I was 21 — for the quick weight loss, but this FOR SURE deserves credit for my skin!). Our mother got stretch marks with her pregnancies, so I think she was a little jealous that my sister and I didn't, and wished they had this oil when she was pregnant!
I went through about 1-1/2 bottles during my pregnancy. At first, I put it on once a day after my shower, and then twice a day or more once I got bigger. I'd recommend putting it on and waiting a few minutes before getting dressed so the oil can sink in. You can also use it after the baby is born, which I did only for a short time.
For some reason, when I was about seven months along, I decided to try some Palmers Belly Butter. The next day, my stomach starting itching and broke out in this rash. I immediately switched back to the Mother's Special Blend.
I've recommended this to EVERY pregnant person I know. All of my friends (I can think of about 6, early to mid-twenties women) have used it with great results, and no stretch marks or stretched out skin! One friend I recommended it to said she used it for only a little while and then stopped, and she has stretch marks and the typical stretched out belly-skin.
If you are thinking of buying this, I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend it! If I could only buy ONE thing for myself during a pregnancy, this would be IT! You will not be disappointed!"

BEST BODY OIL! EVEN IF YOU AREN'T PREGNANT!
(5.0 stars on Amazon.com)
"I used this oil when I was pregnant with my daughter 26 years ago. I am menopausal now and SO DRY. I remembered how it was thin – yet thick at the same time. It soaks in to your skin fast and it doesn't have a strong scent. It's all natural – only oils. So, I bought it for my dried out body skin.
"It's a miracle! I put it all over my legs especially. I can't live without it. If I had a care package for a woman going through menopause, I would put this in it for sure!"

"GORGEOUS SMELL AND SILKY OIL"
"Such a beautiful, all natural oil that looks almost pearlescent. It applies gorgeously to my pregnant belly and has the faintest, natural smell of cacao. Delicious all round – hoping it helps my skin stay supple!"

"This belly oil is AMAZING!!!! This is my 3rd pregnancy. I got mild stretch marks w my 1st. 2nd was awful - super itchy awful stretch marks! I tried belly butters & lotions & Shea butters & all natural products - my belly never looked the same. Now this is my 3rd pregnancy, I’m currently 37 weeks, I’ve been using this since 20-24 weeks, one bottle has lasted me this whole time, and not only do I not have itchy, awful stretch marks, but my previous stretch marks are literally disappearing!!! No more purple lines, they’re shrinking & turning white to match my skin.
"I can’t believe how good my belly looks & how great my skin feels! I Can take pregnancy pictures & am not embarrassed by stretch marks! I HIGHLY recommend this product! I only wish I had found it sooner for my other 2 pregnancies.
"Also, the oil is so light that it doesn’t stain your clothes like other lotions & belly butters! The “scent” is so faint, the first time I put it on, I was like what scent?!? I don’t smell anything.... even now I barely notice a scent to it."

"I used this product my whole pregnancy and it kept my belly and body felling just the right amount of smooth and moisturized. A little bit goes a long way. Not greasy or sticky. You don't have to be pregnant to use this oil. Highly recommend!!"

"I bought this off a recommendation from a friend who used this while pregnant and didn’t get any stretch marks. I’m 7 months in and apply this in the morning and before bed, so far so good! Absorbs quickly after a shower, a little longer to absorb otherwise but that’s pretty typical. Clean simple ingredients."

"This stuff is absolutely amazing! I used it throughout my entire pregnancy on my entire body. Not a single stretch mark on my belly! My skin was also super dry, so I used it basically head to toe, and still use it 2 years later. I use it as my daily facial moisturizer, and also on my legs instead of lotion. My son had exczema as an infant, and the doctor said this was safe to use, and did the trick! We still use it on him daily. Nothing but fantastic things to say about this product. Highly recommend! — Angela, April 28, 2019

"I just wanted to send a thank you email for your product. I searched high and low as soon as I found out I was pregnant for a belly oil and came across your product. I had began to get stretch marks which was expected as I am very prone to them genetically.
"Right now I am about 7 months and haven’t had anymore show up since using your product. I’ve started mixing it with a gentle lotion which helps it sink in easier all over my body just because it’s so silky and moisturizing. Again I have not had ANY new stretch marks appear, not one and plan to continue using postpartum. Thank you so much for your product, simple yet effective!"

"I absolutely love this stuff. I use it during and after my two (now going on three) pregnancies. I also use it for my face. After the shower I put this on and then lotion and my skin stays silky smooth. And it smells like chocolate to me😍." — Sarah Z., December 26, 2019

"I used this oil diligently while I was pregnant (applied it at night generously) and never got a single stretch mark. I was determined not to get them knowing that all of the women in my family had. It works fantastic." — August 24, 2022
