Cocoa Butter
Speaking of stretch marks...
Which is the best for stretch marks? I'm using one now but I forget the name, it's not a name brand. I want to start using a good one before my tummy begins to expand.
Any suggestions?

Re: Cocoa Butter
I have heard that Cocoa Butter doesn't help, that it's genetic. But I've been using it anyway. I use Palmers Cocoa Butter for Stretch Marks. So far I don't have any stretch marks, but my mom can't remember if she got them or not.
If anything, the cocoa butter is good to just keep your belly moisturized so it doesn't itch or feel tight.

Re: Cocoa Butter
I agree...from what I hear it's all about genetics. BUT I still use Palmers in the tub every single day...lol Hey you never know...it might help a little.

Re: Cocoa Butter
From what I understand the CB will help with the itchy skin but stretch marks are genetic.

Same for me.
But my mom didn't get any stretch marks, so it could be genetic. I have not one stretch mark and I'm 3 weeks from my due date.
