What is everyone using for stretch marks?

[alyssagillstrom]

I'm using Bio Oil every morning and night, then if i'm itchy in between I'm using Palmer's cocoa butter. It helps the itch a lot, and makes me feel moisterized. No new stratch marks so far....JW what everyone else does.

I use moisturizer lotion and cocoa butter daily and have no stretch marks yet except on my lower back where I never thought i'd get stretch marks. But im sure its enevitable for mw because i'm carrying 2x the babies. But i'll do what I can to reduce them if I can!

I have also heard of the belly band and may try it after having the little ones. I was never really one big into excercising.

I use jergens ultra healing, mostly to relieve the itching, and then again that is what i use all over so i was using it before i got pregnant... about hte belly band... i am from colombia and they have it there for a lot cheaper than here, my sister used it and you should see her now... its great!! shes skinnier than she was before and since she never got strech marks she looks like she never had a baby...

I have Earth Mama Angel Baby Natural Stretch Oil that I bought from Amazon. Four friends used this product and all delivered with no stretch marks. Maybe it was luck but I'm hoping their luck will rub off on me and leave me mark free, too. Also smells really nice  :-)

I dont bother with anything, I got lucky with my last 2 pregnancies and didnt get any stretch marks and I gained weight like a cow lol, hoping I get lucky with this one too.  My mom never had stretch marks so I guess its good genes hopefully?? Is anyone going to use that belly band that is supposed to get your tummy back into shape postpartum?  Saw it on tv, a lot of the stars are using it, you wear it everyday for approx. 1-2 months after baby, they also have them at babies r us.  I think I am going to try it.

I agree with sunworshipper.  With my first pregnancy I used bio oil every day and night.  When I hit the 7 month mark the stretch marks just came and didn't stop, I literally have a road map on my stomach lol.  The creams and that don't work, if you are going to get stretch marks you are going to get them unfortunately.

I'm trying my best to gain weight slowly. My  nurse I meet with once a week for WIC says I was like 2 lbs overweight for as many weeks as I am...but my mom had stretch marks a lot..so we will see :) Thank you.
