I know they say it's genetic, but luckily I didn't get any. I used a belly cream by burts bees. It doesn't hurt to try and if it doesn't work at least you'll smell good and be nice and soft.
I'm going to try anything with cocoa butter. My sister's friend gained a whopping 75 pounds while she was pregnant and didn't get any stretch marks. She said it's because she started using the lotion before she showed. Now I'm not sure if that's true or not. =/
I am using Burts Bee Mama Butter and I love it! I know I still may get the stretch marks but I like using the lotion anyway. It is very thick so you do not need to use alot. I really like it.
Re: No Stretch Marks!! Anyone suggested some preventative lotion?
You can try all the lotions out there but if you are destined for them, they are going to happen. It's all genetic.
No cream will prevent them b/c they're genetic but they do relieve itching when your belly starts growing.
