Okay how many girls here have used cocoa
butter or something else during the
pregnancy to help w/ stretch marks that
actually works?? B/c im using cocoa
butter and its good lotion and that but if
its not going to really help w/ them then
I wanna switch to something that will....I
mean I know I will have some but hopefully
not alot and not as noticable.....Any
suggestions are great!Thanks much love and
god bless!!

Hello jen,
i used cocoa butter during both of my
pregnancies and I don't have one stretch
mark, well except on my breasts and that
was because they blew up before I knew I
was pregnant with leilani. It works very
well and I recommend using it constantly.
I find myself putting a new application on
almost every 20 minutes or so just out of
habit. Cocoa butter is inexpensive,
smells great and works well! I have also
heard that lubriderm and diaper oitment
helps? I can't vouge for either one, but
I can say that desitin creamy prevents
diaper rash! good luck

My friends mom said baby oil works best.
And my sister alma used cocoa butter and
she got so many stretch marks! She was a
tiger! Lol but andrea my other sister
used nothing and had nothing. But this
one girl here told me "mothers friend"
cream works better. Its like a vitami c
or something cream for stretch marks and
it worked for her. There are so many!
But good luck!
good luck
