I'm using Palmer's cocoa butter and I used it last time too and I didn't get any stretchmarks then so finger's crossed I don't this time but like you've all said, if you're going to get them you're going to get them. I'm just praying I'm lucky again and don't!!!! My mum didn't get any either and she put on over 4 stone while pregnant with me and was HUGE so she was very lucky!

I like coco butter stuff... The key is to make sure your well moisturized and try to put on weight as gradually as you can, which isnt easy. But ya, you can still get them no matter what lol.

Im going to try cocoa butter cuz ive been recommended it by a friend but i have read somewhere that it can be due to the elasticity of your skin and everyones different so i think like the other girls say if your gonna get them youll get them but i still think its worth giving products a try anyway xx
