32 weeks and I'm starting to get stretch marks and look worse by the day. I been applying cocoa butter lotion don't think it's working? Any of you have stretchmarks at this point and what are you ladies using ??

Ive been taking pictures of my stretch marks progression every week and I'm pretty depressed at how bad they get every week. I did everything i could to prevent them, bought all kinds of products, cheap and pricey, and nothing prevented them

Cocoa butter is not suppose to get rid of stretchmarks. What it does is it helps keep your skin nice and elastic so your chances minimize.  I got them on my bum, boobs and between my legs. Mine are berly noticible. If they are red yoy can get rid of them still, once white there's nothing you can do. Vitamin e oil helps, bio oil as well. I am using cocoa butter the super creamy one. I am 27 weeks so far no new ones or any on my tummy. I know I'll eventually get them, but there's nothing I can really do but keep gaining weight slowly.

As a beauty therapist I can tell u that u cant really do much to stop them from coming. Picture them as an elastic band stretching and stretching till it breaks. You cant repair it. But u can use coconut oil to help them fade

I have extremely horrible stretch marks. I have them on my boobs, my entire butt, my thighs, & I recently got brown stretch marks in between my private & butt cheeks. I got sad because my husband noticed the brown stretch marks when I bent over & he thought I had pooped myself :'( I also use cocoa butter lotion & my stetch marks have seem to fade a little bit except the ones that look like I have poop. I seriously cried!
