Help with stretch marks?

What's the best stretch mark cream out there?  I've been using Palmer's cocoa butter, but I've already got my first stretch mark on the bottom of one of my breasts (they went from nothing to porn star right away!) and am terrified of getting any more.  Recommendations?

    there's really nothing that is going to prevent them from happening.  your best chance is to just keep using lotion, staying hydrated, and not gain like 10 lbs in a day.  Otherwise, it's genetics.  you are either predisposed to them or you aren't.  no amount of cream or lotion is going to change that.

    A friend who had twins told me that she used straight Vit E oil for her entire pregnancy on her boobs and belly. She got 1 stretch mark and her mom was covered in them after her first pregnancy. I am trying it and so far, so good (but I haven't grown much.

    I hear it also helps to stay hydrated and to take Omega 3,6 and 9 oils internally.

    I've heard good things about pure Vitamin E!

    I use Bella Bee's Tummy Honey Butter. I started to get a few deep stretchmarks on my chest around 6 weeks (my bust got bigger really quick), but since I started using the Honey Butter I haven't noticed any more, and the ones I do have seem like they're not so deep anymore. I expect to get more lovely stretchmarks as things get bigger, but the Honey Butter seems to be helping.

    I've been using the Baby Oil in the green bottle...

    I have different oils I bought from BRU and the regular cocoa butter but they wear out sooooo fast, and I'm itchy all night so my SIL recommended the baby oil which she used all through her pregnancy and so far it works great!

    I haven't gotten any stretchmarks.
