Anu. Reena replied. Hi Anu,

It's my 25th week now and I use Stretch Nil lotion religiously. I believe all cocoa butter products are good too. Though my doc told me to use any good moisturizing cream or lotion over the tummy.

Take care,
Reena Anu replied. Thanks for you input. I got Vitamin E oil and Palmer's Cocoa butter lotion. Checked with my mom, she did get strecth marks. I will try to use these lotion. Thanks again.
Suma replied. Hi!
I read on the net that no matter what you do or what you apply, the research done by doctors already proved that stretch marks are hereditary. If your mom have heavy stretch marks, then you are more prone to them no matter what you do. So, ask your mother. Applying these creams or oils will do very little to prevent them. Some people get them and some people don't. It's all hereditary. But meanwhile for our satisfaction, we can apply whatever is good for us.
Take Care,
Suma Ritu replied. How are you ? i am also getting stretch marks and am using Palmer's Cocoa butter lotion on them , i bought it from K mart .
Best wishes,
Ritu deepika replied. my doc has recommended stretch nil or no marks, its available in India Radhika replied. Hi anu
There are stretch mark creams/oils rated by parents on babycenter store..my friend who jsut had a baby said they are being more vivid after her delivery..and warned me to use a good product now itself...they have a pregnancy belly oil, a cream and mustela for stretch marks..I chose the pregnancy belly oil (think its bella mama product) stops itching and stretch marks and the comments seemed convincing..all around 20-30$ but will last the next 3-4 months..(hopefully) but think its worth spending..Heard cocoa butter is good for skin too..will get at walmart/cvs/walgreeens/pharmacy store.. choose something that will soothe ur skin and adjust skin to the stretch..vitamin E products..will help. Bargavi replied. Hi Anu
I massage daily for 5 min or so while I bathe with VitE Oil or Baby Oil. Also after bathe I use Nivea or I have the NoMark Cream(from India) which I apply. Some marks will be there but we can try to reduce I think.
