I don't think anything works, I think you either get them or you don't. But I'm something could work to minimize the appearance of them.

I put in on 2 or more times a day (usually more) but at 34 or so week I got an ungodly amount of stretch marks, but they are pretty light so I thikn the coco butter helped a bit,

It worked for me all of my pregnancy until the week before i was due. The last two weeks I have been itchy and noticed some SM on my belly and Im 6 days overdue today. I use it every morning and night and anytime your belly feels dry. I heard it doesnt help some though. Good luck.

I use Mama Butter by Burt's and Bees. Yes, I'd advise you to start applying it early on. With my son, I waited to late to use it, and got a lot of stretchies. This time around I haven't got any new ones. Put it on esp. when you feel itchy and after a shower.

Coco butter just deeply moisturizes the skin, so when it begins to strect they will not appear as much. Its more of a precautionary thing, rather than a 'it will deffinitely work!' type of deal.

I religiously splash the shit all over me. When I wake up, after my mid day shower and before bed. I didnt do my legs because i didnt even think about SM going to be down there, lol, so I got them down there. But everywhere else I used it it prevented them from appearing. I had some on my boobs already and terrible ones at that because i didnt know about the lotion, and once i did use it they started to fade after a week of usage.

Your boobs will grow just as much as your tummy, and the lotion doe swork for me. But some women it doesnt work at all. If you dont see improvment from the cocobutter then try other lotions as well.

getting stretch marks depends on the elasticity of your skin..some people get them some people dont regardless ofwhat lotions you use=)

BIO-OIL IS THE SHIT...
just if you ladies were wondering whether to try it or not. ive been using it for a while now... im 7 months pregnant and i dont have any stretch marks..but my stomach isnt really that big either... yet.... so i dont kno if it works to a degree of preventing them (i doubt very much does) but the bio oil does WONDERS for the skin =]

FYI ... even though you cant do jack squat about it now...
one of the major factors my dr. said in reguards to getting SM or not is of course if its in the family... but ALSO how good of a diet you had PRIOR to getting pregnant.
