my sister is pregnant and she has this one stretch mark on her belly that is really pink and burns and she is putting cocoa butter on it but its not helping...she keeps rubbing it with her hand because it makes it feel better...is there anything that yall would use for stretchmarks aside from cocoa butter?

There is really not much u can do for stretch marks during pregnancy except for the lotion and vitamin E with aloe. The stretch marks are just going to get worse over time and she will prolly get quite a few of them. I started off with 1 in my first pregnancy then 2,3,4,5 and by the time my 7th month hit my stomach had them all over,they were red and a little bit of discomfort. a couple years later they faded a lot...until I had my second. Just tell her to enjoy her new growing belly and keep on rubbin!! =)

Tel her to buy some Vitamin E tablets like you take by mouth and bust it open and rub it on the mark it will be sticky like honey but it will take it away completly it did for me do it at least once a week for 2 months Good Luck!

Oooo I went through the same thing and the only thing I could do was continously keep lotion on my stomach where my stretch marks were. I was applying lotion every hour. Cool washrags help also for the burning.

It is a genetic thing and nothing really does any good. May try chiropractics or acupressure. But either you get them or you don't, sorry.
