I hate stretch marks vent

I'm 30 weeks and started to get stretch marks two weeks ago on my lower stomach but they keep growing I use cocoa butter everyday and it's not helping. They make me so sad and self conscious and I feel like I'll never be able to wear a bathing suit again :( anyone else experiencing this or have any remedies that have worked to get rid of them?

I started getting mine at 30ish weeks... Personally I love my stretch marks. I love them because changing my body was the very first sacrifice I made for my sweet child. Its the first sign that he's strong, healthy and growing into the person he will be. I knew before I got pregnant that I'd never be the same, including physically and I'm perfectly okay with that:) I wish every woman felt this way about stretch marks.

Stretch marks run in my family as well and I was determined to find the best product. With a lot of research lol I found a product called mama mio. This is my second pregnancy and I don't have one mark. And let me just add that I gave birth at 42 weeks !!!! I was a planet! My boy was 8lbs 5 oz and not a mark. Its a little expensive $36 a bottle but man its so worth it. I just purchased 2 bottles for this pregnancy i'm ready! Hhehehe

So I posted this earlier but I use and sell it works. We have an amazing strech mark cream I swear by.It not only prevents strech marks but it's taking away ones I've had for 18 yrs lol. Email me at ***@**** and I'll give you all the info and can show you pictures. Vitamin e and ask that otc stuff is a joke. Trust me I've been pregnant 10 times and have tried it ALL
