Mama's Belly Butter

I love the catalogs I receive from Mountain Rose Herbs. Inside are helpful tips and wonderful recipes. Here is one that you're sure to love, and so will your skin. For those of you who are pregnant, this will help prevent stretch marks. It will condition the skin after you give birth as well.
