Yeah the cocoa butter stuff doesn't work!  I used it everyday in my first pregnancy 3-4 times a day and after I gave birth as my stomach started to shrink I had huge purple stretch marks going all the way across my belly.lol

There is no way to prevent stretch marks they are genetic if your going to get them your going to get them but things like cocoa butter and vitamin E oil can help so they aren't so bad
