You just get strech marks cause you gain weight and lose weight , especially if you scratch . I heard coco butter makes them fade away a bit probably why there turning white !

Yes your skin is stretching that's why you get so itchy , I get so itchy buy I just hold it and won't scratch lol I I'm 37 weeks basically 9 month's and if I made it this far without strech marks I do everything not yo get them but everybody's body is different

Yes its true. I have tried lotions, oils and nothing has helped with the itchiness. I don't have any stretch marks so I guess that's a plus from the lotions lol. I'm 29 + 1 with twin girls.
