I'm new to this so I don't really know how this app works but I guess this is where I ask a…

Welcome and congrats the best stretch mark creme was Cocoa butter

My ob said any lotion will work as long as you use it daily. and when your belly itches DONT SCRATCH IT! I've got my tiger stripes from my first pregnancy. if you get them wear them proudly!

I haven't actually tried it but I've heard plain olive oil helps prevent and treat stretch marks.

that's the first thing I bought. thank you :) @reaganmommy2015 & I've used the cocoa butter & I recently started Burts Bees Mama Bee Belly Butter. just want to prevent them as much as possible. I haven't been scratching, I just rub it out. haven't grown much at all. I'm only 17 weeks, first pregnancy. but I'm sure I'll venture into different products. thank you :) @happilymarriedmommaoffour

Palmers cocoa butter works too. That's what I been using

that's the brand I use. haven't had any complaints. just wanna make sure I get different inputs. thank you @kylamommy2016

You're welcome!

coconut oil.. don't microwave it though I heard it takes the nutrients out of it.. put the container in hot water till it melts.. I love it!

I've never heard of that one. sounds like a good one. thank you ! @bree_55

Really? I love it.. Try coconut milk baths too.. my skin is so soft.. :)

how often do you the coconut oil ? & when you apply it, do you put a lot ?

@bree_55,

@catrinaguerrero, I do it every night or twice a day morning & night.. other stuff like cocoa butter makes my skin itch & I broke out with red itchy bumps everywhere.. & during the morning I put a decent amount like the size of a 50 cent piece all over my belly & lower back & love handles.. & at night I get in a hot shower then rub a bunch in my skin while I'm damp.. but I don't just rub it on my belly it goes everywhere.. :)

I'm not pregnant but i use coconut oil as well on my skin. I don't melt mine tho as once u put a small amount on ur skin it starts to melt on its own due to your body temperature. it makes me skin so soft and feels so nice.
