I have used TUMMY BUTTER by The Spoiled Mama for both my pregnancies and HIGHLY recommend it! My family is known to get stretch marks during pregnancy and I searched everywhere for natural and/or organic creams and oils. I came accross this company online and have been sold ever since. Both of my pregnancies I had 8 lb boys and didnt get ANY STRETCH MARKS!!! I love that the company is very customer service friendly and was happy to answer the array of questions I had regarding their ingredients and what would be the best products to prevent stretch marks. They say stretch marks are hereditary but I believe that you can be proactive and drink lots of water, take omega-3's, and use a natural (petroleum free) lotion/oil that will be absorbed by by your skin to help prevent them.

I first bought the Aloe & Jojoba Therapy (from Made from Earth) and finished it within a matter of weeks. I wished I had bought more because I liked it so much.

I look forward to putting this product on every night because the oil stays on your skin for a long time and it feels good to massage the skin with small circular motions. It is thicker and more durable compared to the other lotions I have tried. It seems to help retain the elasticity in stretched belly skin and baby moves a lot every time I apply it..plus its chemical free and safe for pregnant healthy mothers...i buy mine online @ madefromearth.com

i found cheaper prices there than in sephora...

I'm generally not a lotion person - it just seems like too much work.

In my second pregnancy I've had some really itchy skin on my belly and breasts and my mother bought me the Made from Earth Aloe & Jojoba Creme Therapy (as posted by MT above) for me to try. It has eliminated my itchy skin (though it returns the next day if I don't use the lotion).

My stretch marks seem to be lighter, but I suppose that's probably due to the fact that they're more moisturized than usual.

The scent is pleasant and the texture is wonderful. It's not greasy or overwhelming in any way, but it is nice and thick. I'm someone who struggles with the decision to buy a $4 bottle of Curel, but I'll absolutely pay $25 for a tube of the Made from Earth Aloe Therapy.

You may be able to prevent stretch marks by using the products but once you get it, you cannot get rid of it. unfortunately, surgical prodecure is the only way..

Cat, the cocoa butter mentioned in the article above is what most people use. Your doctor might also have other recommendations for you on new products you can try.

After I found out I was pregnant with my first son, I emailed the Soft-E-Care company to ask some questions about the Soft-E-Lotion and the customer service rep gave me a coupon code for 15% off my order to help out as I am on a budget. He said the code would never expire. Thought I would share it here as I got mine after reading the posts here and like the way it feels.

The 15% off code was: softe http://www.softecare.com
