    Anitha,
    He was born at 8.29 AM (IST). How abt urs?
    You can simply ask for Vitamin E cream in the pharmacy, they will give you.
    I hope you resides in NJ. I was also in NJ, but now in chennai. You can check in Duane Reade.

    Padmini,

    That's nice.. Being in same state we did not meet each other.. Due to job reasons you went to India?? Our Rithik was born on 1.17am :)

    Okay let me check this Vit-E cream... I think I have seen such creams in target also..

    ohh thats nice.
    I was working there and came back to India for my wedding and settled here. Yes you can check target or any other shops like Khols. You can also find it in Bed bath and beyond, i am sure you will get it there.

    Anitha,

    Did you try applying shea butter? Its very effective on dry skin, stretch marks, wrinkles etc and above all very natural. Try it out. Any local walgreens, drugstore or walmart/target carries it.

    Anitha, its shea butter not cocoa butter. It comes as both lotion and cream as far as my memory goes.

    Anu, yes it does. It helps not only stretch marks but also to regain moisture in your skin and remove wrinkles (not age related wrinkles)
