I'm using palmers cocoa butter,I used it through my last pregnancy and it was great,and I've used it everyday since then. It's really good makes your skin really soft aswell and its cheap

I'm using palmer's cocoa butter, my SIL swore by it during her Pregnancy, and it smells heavenly (just like chocolate!)

I agree palmers coco butter is the best unfortunatly I didn't use it in my 1st pregnancy but I did after & it made my stretch marks much less visible & worked very fast! With my second pregnancy I used it & I didn't get any new stretch marks & I was huge! Lol I have quite a few friends who used it from the start of there pregnancies & have none at all! xx

Hate to say it but if you are going to get stretch marks you're going to get them no matter how many lotions n potions you use. BUT, bio oil is good for preventing them going bright red and really itchy

Thanks girls! I'm going to go and buy some. My skin is beginning to itch and I've also been told not to scratch it, because it causes stretch marks. But, I'm not sure about that.
