Question, Stretch Marks

I don't have any yet and certainly don't want any if I can avoid them. This will be my 1st baby. I will be 14 weeks on Sunday. Anyways, what has worked the best for you ladies as far as creams/oils/lotions to prevent them. I have some cocoa butter but I don't really know what is the best to use? Thank you!

I didn't get stretch marks till my 3rd trimester with my first. But my mother used vitamin e oil with me and my siblings. And she doesn't have a single stretch mark. I tried use it but forgot a lot.
