Stretch Marks

Hi Guys,

I'm 34w5d today and i think I'm starting to get stretch marks. I'm not really concerned - I figured it was bound to happen, just wondered when.

If you got stretch marks - when did they start to appear?

 

I honestly don't remember when I got them, but I still have them and get to look forward to them stretching out again. wonder if you can get stretch marks on your stretchmarks. I am pretty sure I had them by 30 weeks for sure though.

 

Ummmm Conception? :FIFblush: LOL I can't tell what are stretch marks from this pregnancy and what are stretch marks from previous pregnancy

 

Had my girls at 35 weeks 2 days got them around 33 weeks not that many just towards bottom of stomach but after delivery my stomach looked like a maze! I was pretty dissapointed but I got two beautiful girls to show for it!

 

I dont have any from my previous 3 singlton pregnancies and Im terrified... I just dont want my hubby to look at me and then wish he wasnt seeing them

 

I got marked up like a lion scratched me around 30 weeks. I was religiously using the belly-butter and it did not help. Thankfully the belly has gone down and they look less angry, but it still looks like mini canyons on my stomach.

 

I know it sucks and i dont even have kids. I have them on stomach cause i put on weight from when i couldnt move around due to my Cerebral Palsy treatment. It sucks, i get upset about it cause i shouldnt have them at 19 im trying to lose weight to help it but its hard when i cant get around much physically due to the problems im having at the moment. So i feel for you all in that department.

 

so far this pregnancy I don't have any new ones. I got TONS with my son, none with my daughter (my belly never got as big) and so far have managed unscathed this time. I am sure that they will start coming soon though

 

I really didn't get many. It wasn't until after I had the girls that I noticed a few small marks on my lower back around the hip area. Not too bad, but you can see them. I also have some on my boobs...but I got those from when I had my son.

 

I'm surprised that I don't have any so far. I feel like I'm stretched to the max and growing by the day though, and it sounds like many of you got them around 30 weeks. I guess I'll look for them to arrive next week.

 

I didn't get any stretch marks. It wasn't until after I had the twins that I got a few little marks on my hips. They were red at the time, but now you can't see them. I was convinced that I would get a bad case of them considering I got stretch marks just from growing up at a teen, but I was wrong.

 

Mine started at around 33 weeks right under my belly button. Really it was not much.
