Cocoa Butter, a good thick cocoa butter cream is good too. Just basically keeping your stomach soft and moisturized helps. But... some people will get stretch marks no matter what they do. I did, I got them, still have them, *sigh*, yeah.
Stretch Marks
I am very worried about getting stretch marks. Only in my first trimester right now, but I know it's good to start using oils, creams, or lotions early to prepare the skin and prevent stretch marks. Currently, I am using Bio-Oil. I was wondering what other products have been used and what the results were? Has anyone on here used anything that worked wonders, or anything that didn't work at all? Give me your reviews, I'd like to know!
Also, is it beneficial to use more than one product, like oil and cream?
Sometimes I lay under the moon, and thank God I'm breathin'. And I pray, "Don't take me soon, 'cause I am here for reason..."

May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the crotch of the person who screws up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch.
Amen
Whoever said anything was possible obviously never tried slamming a revolving door.
that's what I hear and I am very worried about that! I think if I see a stretch mark I will probably cry.

Oh dear, better get some tissues. There isn't much you can do on this. Eat right, exercise, drink lots of water and use a good lotion or olive oil on your breasts, belly, thighs and hips.
Start massaging your perineum and massaging, rubbing, pulling, just toughening up your nipples too - you can enlist that man in your life to help out with all this. Have him massage in the lotion or oil and then get busy on the other areas.

I read that scratching your stomach helps the stretchmarks 'grow'. I read it in some magazine.. So I guess keep your belly moisturized. But know this...... no matter what, you will probably end up with stretch marks. Not just on you tummy too. I cried when I saw my first stretch mark. First one in my whole life. Bummer -.-
It also matters what your genes are like. Do you have naturally elasticy (is that a word? haha) skin? My mom has super elasticy skin I guess because shes had three kids and i dont see stretch marks.. I, however, got stretchmarks. But I also ate like a freakin pig..
Oh, and I hate to say it.. but that cocoa butter stuff doesnt really work. But put it on anyways to moisturize. I put it on my belly so many times a day.. and I got stretch marks.
Its just part of being a mommy.. getting those dreading stretchmarks! Sorry darlin!
