Getting stretch marks all on my lower stomach. :( they are so light but nonetheless hurt so bad! I use cocoa butter, palmers stuff several times a day and baby oil... Any other suggestions? 😣 this sucks.

Use baby lotion, Johnson's and you gotta apply it at least 3 times a day, the palmers should work and baby oil too, and no scratching, scratching helps rip your skin and leads to stretch mark stripes!

Yeah I apply it 3-5 times a day and I never scratch.. Like I said they are very light, almost can't see them but it seems everyday there's more and my skin feels raw! When I run my hands across my skin it hurts and it's all indented! UGHHH

honestly there is nothing you can do, if your going to get them you will, it's a genetic thing, you can put stuff on to help for sure, some people are just lucky, other's are not.

Agree with @allyandbaby !!!

I disagree with you. Though I know there's nothing I can do to stop them, I think using lotions and other products soothes and reduces them... I'm mostly looking to help them not be so tender. And I have puberty stretch marks that went from purple to white with using different things.. So...

I heard bio oil is a no-no during pregnancy because of the retinyl palmitate.. If you look it up its not supposed to be used during pregnancy. So idk, I'll ask my doctor at my next appointment!

Helps with the itching that comes along with stretching too!

The cocoa butter. My tummy has been SOOO itchy. I haven't found anything better though :/

baby oil is a petroleum product and a lot of research shows that it isn't really good for you http://www.livestrong.com/article/185370-why-is-mineral-oil-bad-for-your-skin/#page=1 coconut oil has worked wonders for me. My stretch marks were so painful and itchy it sooths them and my severe all over acne ( I have scars now) went away too.

I'm not saying lotion does not help, it does help, but it won't stop them, I've seen many friends and sister's, my best friend put oil, lotion, all kinds of stuff, and she still got them, I'm not trying to sound rude, I did not really use much of anything, and I don't have any, everyone is different is all I'm saying.
