it's a cream that removes pregnancy stretch marks and I believe it starts with an "S" and it's said to be pretty expensive. If you know the name of it, where can I get it?

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!! Every doctor and midwife i have ever seen, every pregnancy website ect has said that no cream in the world will stop stretch marks, you will either get them or you wont, you either have elasticity in your skin or you don't. i rubbed Palmer's coco butter into my skin 3 times a day, and i have heaps of them. the people that tell you they rubbed it on their skin and didn't get any will think it works but its just that there skin can tolerate the stretching! one thing all the doctors told me is that zinc will help fade them. a lot of people will probably give me thumbs down for this answer, but seriously, just ask your doctor or midwife next time you see them!

With my first son I used Palmers Coco Butter and Palmers Body Oil throughout my entire pregnancy. I didnt wait until I started to show. As soon as I found out I was prego I used that stuff EVERY day, and got very few light stretch marks on my stomach. A couple of my friends that have got pretty bad dark stretch marks have bought Strivectin after they had the baby and that really worked wonders on them. Now with my second, I am using the same things plus Palmers tummy butter and so far so good. :) Good luck

i believe you are thinking of StriVectin-SD. It was originally used for Existing Stretch marks but they found that it's great for anti-aging. I use it. I love it! (Jennifer Lopez Uses it too!) You can get it at Sephora. I think Nordstroms or Macy's too.

Palmer's Cocoa Butter and baby oil helped alot and a oatmeal body soap helps relieve to itch of dry skin.
I've also been told that extra virgin olive oil and castor oil works as well...But I guess it all depends on personal perference to what you put on your body.

Srivecten I know I misspelled. I think you can get it at the drug store. Go in and see or ask the pharamist, they usually know where everything is in that section.

Cocoa butter works very well,and should be used through pregnancy. It is very inexpensive.
