0 stretch marks first time, 35 weeks NOW getting them?!?

[PugMama22]

Why now? I'm the same size as I was with the first pregnancy and now I'm getting stretch marks?! So pissed! Damn I thought I was a lucky one

I was the same, none with my 1st then they started popping up from 32 weeks with my 2nd! I was like what the heck lol took me a long time to get over it lol they didn't get bad though and took about a year to fade to the white/silvery colour. I've not noticed any new ones yet this time but some of my old ones have started to go a bit red.

 

[PugMama22]

I know! You'd think if you were going to get them they'd show up during the first pregnancy!

I thought I got away with it too, but then stretch marks started showing up around my belly button at 37 weeks! Devastated, but trying to keep in mind that my little man is worth it

 

[PugMama22]

Me too oh well, life goes on... Could be worse!

OMG I didn't know this was possible-okay that sounds crazy when I read it out loud, but really! I am stretch mark free from baby #1 and now I am 31 weeks...they could be on their way. Now I'm worried

This happened to me with DS at 36 weeks I used cream on my bump every single day as well so I think if you're going to get them, there's nothing you can do to stop them.

This time, I've still escaped so far but I just know that some will appear, especially if I go over

 

[Fleur29]

Oh no now you've freaked me out!! I assumed I would get away with it again!

I have stretch marks on boobs, belly and arms from years of weight gain and loss anyway. A few more if they show up on my belly aren't the end of the world. Hubby swears blind that he only notices them of I point them out and I can't see myself every wearing a crop top to go out in public.

Horror of horrors, I only got stretch marks AFTER I had had my first baby! I didn't have a single one the whole pregnancy and about a week after my emcs, they appeared all over what-was-my-bump but was by then my flabby tummy! They've faded now though and knickers and bikini bottoms cover the silvery lines as they didn't spread to my hips. I wonder if I'll be so lucky again!
