    Shipping details

    What is processing time?

    Processing time is the period between placing your order and the package being handed to the shipping carrier.

    Most orders are processed within 2–5 business days, Monday–Friday excluding holidays.

    During this time, your item may be picked, prepared, produced, finished, assembled, personalized, packed, or otherwise made ready for shipment.

    Shipping time does not include processing time. Carrier transit begins after processing is complete and the package has been accepted for shipment.

    Where does my order ship from?

    My American Goods® uses a hybrid fulfillment model.

    • Some products are stocked and shipped directly by My American Goods.
    • Other products ship directly from the independent American brand or maker.

    This allows us to offer a much broader selection of American-made products while supporting the independent businesses that make them.

    Why might my order arrive in multiple packages?

    Products in the same order may ship from different fulfillment locations.

    As a result, items may:

    • Ship on different days
    • Arrive in separate packages
    • Have different tracking numbers
    • Use different shipping carriers or services

    Receiving one package does not necessarily mean the rest of your order is missing.

    How are shipping rates calculated?

    Because products may ship from different makers and fulfillment locations, shipping rates can vary by product or brand.

    • Some products or brands qualify for free shipping above a specific threshold.
    • Other products may use flat-rate or carrier-calculated shipping.
    • Products shipping from separate locations may generate separate shipping charges.

    The applicable shipping cost is shown before your order is completed.

    When will I receive tracking?

    Tracking information is emailed once your item has been prepared and shipped.

    For handmade, made-to-order, pre-order, or specialty products, tracking may not be available until the applicable preparation or production period is complete.

    If the expected processing period for your item has passed and you have not received a shipping update, please contact us.

    Carrier delays & missing packages

    After a package has been accepted by USPS, UPS, FedEx, or another shipping carrier, transit may be affected by weather, holidays, peak-volume periods, transportation disruptions, or other carrier conditions outside our control.

    Shipping and delivery timelines are estimates unless expressly stated otherwise.

    If tracking shows Delivered but you cannot locate the package, check:

    • Household members
    • Neighbors
    • Porches, side doors, garages, and other delivery areas
    • Parcel lockers or building mailrooms

    Carrier scans can occasionally appear shortly before final delivery. If the package still cannot be located, we can assist with a carrier investigation.

    Shipping address accuracy

    Please review your shipping address carefully before completing your order.

    Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate delivery address.

    Packages returned because of an incorrect, incomplete, or undeliverable address may require additional shipping charges before they can be sent again.

    Crema hidratante de maternidad.

    Esta crema orgánica de Karite es muy buena para la hidratación si está embarazada porque no te permite que te salga estría para un uso diario la verdad que tan solo un poquito de aplicación es suficiente para cubrir la pancita por eso le doy 5 estrellas.

    Best salve ever

    It definitely works and I love the smell! I always put it on after my pm shower and make sure to wear some oversized cotton tee that I don’t mind getting a little oily.Some people don’t like the smell I honestly loved it.No stretch marks yet (36 weeks).

    If you’re pregnant, you need this!

    This stuff is amazing. I’m on my third pregnancy, never got stretch marks on my belly with the first, but I did get stretch marks with the second. I bought this and started using it early into my third pregnancy and I have zero stretch marks at 36 weeks! How amazing is that? I am no larger than I was during my first or second, I’ve carried all three babies very similar and didn’t gain more weight with any of them. I have used it religiously every single night. I’m on my second jar and about to order my third to finish out this pregnancy. My belly is always hydrated, never itches, and it taking the growth of this third baby like a champ! I attribute a smooth baby belly to this stuff 🥰

    Amazing!

    I absolutely love this product. I just knew it was going to be amazing before I bought it because they have other amazing products but I’ve only used it once and it amazing!! The quality is AMAZING! My belly and boobs still feel so hydrated and soft and I used it 2 days ago. A small amount goes a long way. I want to prevent any stretch marks so I’ve started early in my pregnancy to avoid that because I got many on my first pregnancy. I like to lather it kn so I wish the jar was just a lil bit bigger but overall awesome product

    New smaller packaging ?

    The same great product but now has a new container. The 4oz container that used to come in glass is now plastic and appears to be smaller!!! But it still says 4oz. Perhaps it’s in illusion but it definitely looks smaller to me! And the smaller one not filled all the way to the top like the glass one is. Less product for the same price, yay! Never a fan of plastic, but the product is great!

    Lovely organic belly oil

    Used this oil more for postpartum but it has been wonderful. I recommend if you’re pregnant, USE LOTION AND OILS for your belly!! Slather it all on. It really did help me have a better looking belly lol.

    Love it, so soothing

    The media could not be loaded.









    I really love and am happy with this balm its not sticky and absorbs well into the skin. It does its job well, in my second trimester was experiencing a lot of itching and growth to my body. Using this has calmed down my itchy skin a lot, and still no stretch marks thankfully. I also love the smell its a soothing relaxing scent, so overall very pleased with this product.

    Zero Stretch Marks, 100% Love

    Obsessed doesn’t even begin to cover it. I started using this belly salve in my second trimester and not only did I love the smell, but I ended my pregnancy with zero stretch marks. Now that I’m no longer pregnant, I refuse to let it go to waste...I’m using what’s left as a hand balm because it’s that good. Deeply nourishing, luxurious, and 100% clean ingredients which is the BEST.

    Soft consistency and absorbs too quickly

    This salve has a very soft consistency and I ended up using a lot of it through my pregnancy. I still have a month left till baby is due and I already used up the entire jar, and I still developed stretch marks. Used another brand for my previous 2 pregnancies (glow organics, was out of stock during this pregnancy), and that one 4oz jar lasted me both pregnancies and I developed no stretch marks. Not sure if this salve just didn't help, or my skin is just giving up with the third pregnancy, but I'm still a bit disappointed. Immediately after applying this salve, my belly feels nice and hydrated, but it absorbs so quickly that as soon as I pull my tank top over my belly, it already feels dry. Otherwise, the ingredients are great and it spreads nicely over the bump. Feels a bit greasy initially, but absorbs very quickly.

    Belly salve for “crunchy” moms-to-be

    Smaller than expected but overall works well and love the clean/natural ingredients especially compared to what’s on the market today. If you’re sensitive to the smell of chamomile for any reason, this may not be your cup of tea…no pun intended. I enjoy using this at night before bed, the scent makes me sleepy💤 IMO it helps to follow this up with a belly oil for best results.

    Use with an oil

    Used with belly oil during my pregnancy. It helped with elasticity and kept my stretch marks at bay. Used during my 3rd pregnancy and had very little new appear.

    Good oil but eventually made all my clothes smell

    I’ve been using this oil after I shower since around 16 weeks. Currently 34 weeks and do not have stretch marks yet-not sure if it’s the oil or not. My only complaint is that over time, the oil has really absorbed into my pajamas and leaves a very strong dust/moth ball smell that drives me nuts. I even smell it on my clothes that touched my pajamas in my hamper. I don’t notice the smell on myself once the oil has absorbed overnight, but it seems to really be stuck on my clothes.

    A must have

    I loved this item so much. I never paid as much attention to the ingredients in skincare and food as much as I have during pregnancy, and this entire brand has very clean and simple ingredients. I didn’t get any stretch marks and while that was partially genetic, I do feel like this product helped me a lot. It was super emollient, not sticky at all. I give it as a gift to all my pregnant friends/family members.

    Really great option

    I'm really enjoying this product so far. After the first use my overly tight skin felt instantly soothed and more moisturized. I topped it with the belly oil for extra relief and my skin feels less sensitive afterwards. The scent is subtle and pleasant.This is my second pregnancy and I had been using the 8 sheep belly balm/overnight cream but wasn't impressed. Old stretch marks were starting to burn again and my skin was feeling super tender regardless of how often I reapplied the 8 sheep products. The mothers love products are definitely on the more oily side, but honestly I don't mind it as long as it keeps my skin from feeling so dry.

    An Absolute Staple

    I LOVE this belly oil!!! I’m on my third pregnancy and have pretty deep stretch marks from my first pregnancy where I gained a lot of weight and didn’t use much lotion or oil. As far as I can tell, I haven’t got any new stretch marks with this pregnancy. I love the smell and feel of this oil, I haven’t noticed it staining any clothes. I will say, I do have to use about 10 pumps on my belly each time I use it (morning and night).

    I love this stuff!

    I absolutely love this stuff and truly swear by it!! I know every women's body is different, but I've used this product through the duration of my pregnancy (I'm currently 37 weeks) And I don't have any stretch marks 🙌 (granted I think a lot of that is due to diet and exercise as well) I do just have to say that I love all the mother love products. The ingredients are wonderful and it works so well! I also really really love the nipple balm too!

    Best product

    Love with, I first bought the balm and as I got later in my pregnancy i wanted to add an oil also. I love both products and recommend to any mother to be!

    Love this!

    I am really invested in purchasing clean ingredient products and the Yuka app (an ingredient screener for beauty and food products) rated this product very highly so I was really excited. I have also tried the Honest body oil and Mustela anti-stretch mark cream but the Motherlove Salve is my favorite. The key to maintaining skin elasticity is keeping your bump hydrated which the Motherlove Salve does just that while keeping your skin smelling amazing and soft all day long.
