anything with Vitamin E will help. It will smooth them a little, but wont help they not devlop or go away unfortunatly.

Plain old cocoa butter will work just as well.

i use the palmers one for strech marks.

Most everything I have read says they go away eventually after birth - of course I don't know about it yet!

Ha! I still have mine and I gave birth 8 years ago. They aren't as bad, but they are definitely still there.

Hey a girl can dream, right??

Personally - I have gained so much weight in the past years that I believe I am all stretched out already!!

That's because nothing does and if anyone ever makes something to stop stretch marks from coming they are going to be a BILLIONAIRE!!! All the creams and lotions just offer false hope and a lot of smooth skinChat Icon

I agree-the creams will just help with the itchiness. I just to put olive oil on it or deep moisturizers.

I got stretch marks around my belly button too, that's the only place i got them , thank god.

Have faith! Mine disappeared within 2-3 weeks of giving birth. You can't even see them now and i am 14 weeks pg again and this pg was conceived 5 months after giving birth

What a let down....I rub coco butter all over my stomach, legs and butt after I get out of the shower...everyday!! I am not pregnant yet - but I thought a head start would work wonders....guess I am wrong!
