Stretch Marks

Has anyone had success with any remedies that helped with stretch marks? I do understand it won't totally prevent them but I  would like some suggestions on remedies that help. Thank you!

I'm using bio oil and I'm 30 weeks with no new stretch marks. I have old ones but starting to notice them going pink. Fingers crossed!

I also do the same as tammy_marie. 30 weeks and so far so good :) my mother doesn't have any stretch marks and apparently they're a lot to do with genes. Guess I'm lucky

My mum told me that when she was pregnant with both me and my brother every night after her shower or bath she would pat her skin dry (not fully rub yourself dry) and then put baby oil on her breasts, belly, butt and thighs and she doesn't have a single Stretch mark on her body.. I've been doing the same and so far so good :)

I use cocoa butter to reduce the redness. A lot of women use bio oil and vitamin e. My mom used baby oil. She said it worked good for her.
