Parenting and Wrinkles?

I was 37 when I had my daughter 4 months ago (now I'm 38). And suddenly it seems like I have more (and deeper) wrinkles than ever!





Did any of you in your mid-late 30s get wrinkles soon after having your baby?





Could it be caused by hormones or is it just a coincidence?Parenting and Wrinkles?
Seems like you have lost your pregnancy hormones and your skin is feeling the burn, buy a really good moisturizer and keep using it nightly (oil of olay has a great one)Parenting and Wrinkles?
Hmm, interesting.


My wrinkles became suddenly more pronounced as my daughter entered her pre-teens.


Woowoo.
There are so many wrinkle causing factors to consider, you can't attribute it all to having a baby.





Heredity: what did your parents, aunts, uncles look like at age 37?





Smoking: if you smoke or have smoked in the past, you WILL have additional wrinkles.





Sun: if you were a sun worshiper at any age, you will have additional wrinkles appear at your present age.





Weight gain: You do gain a weight during pregnancy, but if it wasn't excessive it won't be enough to cause loose skin and wrinkles. But if you have been overweight in your life, it will age your skin.





All this aside; use the uplifting muscles in your face and smile because you have a beautiful baby. And your significant other probably never thought you were more beautiful. Take care of your skin, avoid the sun, smoking, etc. and you will look wonderful!
Once the wrinkles get so bad, that you can't take it anymore, get a chemical peel. Well worth the investment.
get ready for old age. you are starting the age proses. all i can say is lotion lotion lotion.
