My mother had 4 children and has not one stretch mark on her body. My sister on the other hand got pregnant and she has a stomach full of them. I figured I would get them so I started using the cocoa butter very early on to try to keep my stomach moistened bc I have a tattoo on my stomach I knew it was highly likely I'd get them where a tattoo is scarred tissue anyway. And that's where they started. My tattoo turned almost completely pink and stretch marks linked off of those and made new. But that's okay. At first I was sad that I wouldn't have an attractive stomach anymore, but when my daughter asks why I have those marks on my stomach I will be proud to tell her.<3

Stretch marks are more genetic than anything. There's no way it caused them. It's full of vitamin e and would moisturize if anything. If your family has a history of stretch marks you have a good chance of getting them. It's actually been proven that even the lotions and stuff just help them not be so severe. It can't actually just keep them away. Good luck!!!!!
