Bio oil (i use the walgreens drugstore brand) and st Ives mineral therapy intense 24 hour lotion. Swear by it.  I have always heard stretch marks run in families, which they do in mine, but I've always been real active, lots of water and no marks here & I'm 38 wls w/ baby #2. I bring these everywhere though so if i start to feel itchy i apply. Be sure to continue use after or get a firming lotion to tighten back up.

I tired the Palmers stretch mark cream. Used it 3 times a day and still got them. Although the marks are a light white I'm using Curel life stages pregnancy and motherhood. Its seriously the only thing I've tried that relieves the itch of the stretching. Also I honestly think you get them out not by how your carrying the baby. My son is all front action. Also people with fair skin are prone to get them.

My mom gave me this all organic belly balm. It's like a thin lotion made to keep your skin elastic. So far so good, but I haven't gotton much of a belly yet. Only 15 weeks

Using creams etc can help prevent them, I got none during my previous pregnancies and so far (32wks) none with this.....however, what I didnt do first time round was to continue with it after delivery as I lost the baby belly, and I ended up with loads! So remember to keep up with moisturising AFTER the birth to help minimise your risk of any new ones appearing then :)
