I got so many stretchmarks with my 1st pregnancy because I was so small and nothing helped. This time around (2nd pregnancy, 5 yrs later) I only got a few very small stretch marks. They seem to be fading as well as my old ones, which by the way were pretty deep. I've been using this cream I got off Amazon has great reviews.  There's 2 different ones you can use one with retinol and one w/o it's only $20. I love it and keeps my belly moist pretty much all day. I use it Ine the morning and before I go to bed after showers of course.  It's called:
Urban Skintrition Pregnancy Care Stretch Mark Cream + Enhanced Shea Butter w/Collagen Repairing Peptides (Paraben-Free) + NO Retinol for Pregnant Women - Coconut Mango Scented - 4 oz
