A lot of girls have stretch marks, and the dads missing out, not you. Remember that ❤️ I've been using a coco butter cream I got from a beauty store. I put it on whenever I start to get itchy or my stomach feels dry and it's been helping a lot so far, good luck Hun! ☺️❤️

Thanks you guys for responding to my text. Smallfry23 at least your married your husband really loves you. Can't say the same about me.. I don't really have anyone the only thing I have been getting from baby father is a little financial support.. He never wanted the baby in the first place..

The bio oil will help fade them but you have to use as directed it doesnt exactly prevent them nthn really can besides not growing and weall know that impossible while pregnant.. :) youll be ok after and like myself i flipped out and cried like someone died the day i got marks from my first child.. I though my husband wouldnt look at me the same and he doesnt give two craps about my marks now.. We are 21 weeks with baby three ;) i even got that horrible belly fold at the bottom and he doesnt care im still me thats what matters and im super zombie mommy 3 year old 9 month old and new baby otw feb 17.

Nothing really helps honestly . You can use stuff all day long and still get them . You can try what your using and cocoa butter , but it's genetics too. It's apart of pregnancy

I use bio oil aswell I am 37 weeks and started to get stretch marks now even though I have been using it for months. As far as I know if you are going to get them you will but putting on creams and oils shud hopefully help with the itchiness. I have been told by all my friends they will fade so hopefully they will!

I've been using African Shea Butter. It's really thick and it works well. I haven't gotten a single stretch mark at all. I've tried other products like coa coa butter lotion but i noticed that my skin absorbed it to quickly so my skin would start to feel dry and I'll have to apply more. I think that goal is to keep you belly and back area as moisturized as possible and with the Shea Butter just apply twice a day whenever you get out the shower and your done and it doesn't take that much. The down side is that it kind of has a funny smell to it

They'll fade after pregnancy. I got some during my pregnancy but now you can barely tell. Just keep up with a lotion or oil and know that it'll take time but they'll fade.

have you tried coa coa butter lotion? or Honest Organic Belly Balm? my sister in law used the Honest Orgnanic belly balm and it worked really really good for her!
