What's a good "natural" body moisturiser that's safe to use when you're pregnant?

Sorry to say that wheatgerm oil is NOT good for stretchmarks - even if you could buy some that had not already gone rancid. Most if what is available has already gone rancid which is why it smells so bad. Sweet almond oil is very good as the others have said but the absolute best is shea butter or shea butter oil. It contains phytosterols which help skin cells replicate very fast which is why you don't form stretch marks when using it.


Superstarpen is right however about the programme Sarah Beeney did and she loved the products that we sent her that are easily made at home. I cannot resist the obvious plu either that I am running a course on 19th and 20th February to make your own skincare products in Nunhead. Shameless plug over but even if you don't come on the course, start using shea butter right away and I wish you well.

      Next PSC National March for Palestine 11th October 2025 12:00 pm - 4:30 pm Central London

      By Sue · Posted

      Whether the march still goes ahead will depend on what happens in the next couple of days, I imagine. Things have looked hopeful before, but fingers crossed this time is different. Have you actually read the posts above? Do you understand the difference between antisemitism and being against the Israeli government killing thousands of civilian adults and children? Do you understand why people were intending to demonstrate against our own government's involvement in killing thousands of civilian adults and children by supplying arms to Israel? It seems not. Why on earth would a march "still go ahead "to demonstrate antisemitism"?

      Now there is a peace agreement, the only reason this would still go ahead is to demonstrate antisemitism.

      Sadly everyone's in East Dulwich is. The move has been nothing but a complete disaster for us. And now  I gather that the office isn't even open most of the time, if you could get to it. It must be so disheartening to be a postie there knowing your bosses are forcing you to give a poor service by prioritising more lucrative parcel delivery. That was so much a privatisation too far.

      Has anyone had issues with subsidence caused by tree outside property?

      By Bob Gibson · Posted

      I am currently dealing with numerous cases of clay shrinkage subsidence in Dulwich, and have had some success in getting TPOs lifted. I also agree with the comments about being cautious about getting insurers involved and I’m in the Insurance Post Magazine this week discussing this subject. I have written a blog on my website about it too. It’s a huge problem which is currently escalating enormously. UK Subsidence (clay shrinkage and trees) Fb group has experts on it (incl myself) giving free advice and is a useful resource.My Insurer has withdrawn subsidence cover.pdf
