I am ten weeks pregnant and already starting to show :) I'm even wearing maternity pants now! How soon did all of you start using stretch mark creams and did they work for you? . Which brands worked the best? Thanks!

Well, my baby was born in Feb. 2006 and I was reading an article in the doc's office and it stated, "If you do not get stretchmarks, then thank your mother." It is mostly hereditary. I would use regular lotion every now and then when I thought about it and I do not have one single stretch mark anywhere, and my mother did not get them and she had 3 kids. But I am sure creams/lotions do help minimize and make them not be so bad if stretch marks do run in the family.

As soon as I got the positive test!!!! I use Pure Simplicity Cocoa Body Butter from Bath and Body Works. I have no stretch marks on my stomach (however don't neglect your calves, boobs, thighs and butt) - cause i did get stretch marks there on my first preg.

you should already have started. I didn't get stretchmarks after my pregnance but I always kept my skin hydrated by using lots of cream, drinking lots of water......AND NO SCRATCHING!!

Start now, but depending on your genes, you will probably get them anyway. I did. :(
Sorry, just the way it works. Depressing I know.......

Save your money; I don't think they work.
Your hubby will love you stretch marks and all.
