I use the cocoa butter lotion. I believe its because your stretching and its important to keep yourself hydrated cause your being sucked dry of all your nutrients. I find myself bathing in lotion daily. Lol

Don't scratch us lotion.. I gave myself skin tears (far worse than stretch marks) by scratching when I was pregnant with my daughter. Its normal but invest in lotion or grapeseed oil.
