There are a number of creams out there that promise to deal with stretch marks and they say cocoa butter is the best...
If you have a bigger budget, then try 'bio oil'..
As you are now 9 months pregnant, there may not be a lot you can do about them now but keep them moisturised. It's a good idea to keep the tummy area very moisturised from early pregnancy as stretch marks are inevitable for some people.
Do not worry much about it...all part of the joys of motherhood
When you see your baby, it will well be worth it!:)

Yes, cocoa butter and bio oil only reduce their visibility but do not remove them completely...
As the first poster said, the deed is already done... I was only trying to be more light hearted about it

I've got stretch marks on my thigh before because I got fat. I applied cocoa butter everyday. it did not really disappear but lighten up and does not really look obvious unless you look at it up close.

My doctor always told me that stretch marks are hereditary and that if your mom got them you would likely get them. There's no proven method to prevent them that I know of! I've had 4 kids in 5 years, so I think I've earned my stretch marks!
