mng22, can you suggest where to go for the radio frequency treatment and give an account of your experience? Thanks!
Using cocoa butter is good from the beginning. Its also all about keeping your skin moisturised. From what I've researched you should drink alot of water, it helps keep moisture in your skin and in turn keeps skin elasticity.
I've used cocoa butter in abundance from my 1st trimester till the last. It didnt work for me. I still ended up with lots of strechmarks and they all came in the last trimester which was only when my tummy really became big suddenly. Its not really a case of genetics on my side as most has either none or very little.
Dont waste your money on expensive creams. Palmer's cocoa butter or oil is enough. If they cant help you nothing else can.
Note that some creams like strivectin cannot be used by pregnant ladies, its for post-natal.
