TO NAT: Keloidic scarring and KP

Hi Nat. I have a 6mo old daughter who was delivered by c-section. I have no stretch marks at all, which really surprises me considering I gained 70 pounds (mostly in water weight from having toxemia) during my pregnancy. I have lost all the weight now, but of course am suffering from bad KP on the backs of my upper arms and fronts of my thighs. I never had KP before in my life!! I only got it around the time my daughter was about 2mos old. I recently went back on the birth control pill, ortho novum 777, and I am hoping that will work since I was on that pill for about 10 yrs before I became pregnant. I am hoping the bc pill is what prevented me from getting KP in my teen years/early 20s. I am now 29 yrs old. This condition totally sucks! I am determined to find a solution for this as I am not going to cover up another summer if I can help it!
