Stretch Marks??

Question

I have a silly question about stretch marks... 
Is it possible to only get 2-3 stretch marks during pregnancy? I didn’t have any in my first pregnancy, but after my first son was born I developed 2 super small little puck marks at the bottom of my tummy as my belly went down. 
Now during this pregnancy I’m 26 weeks and have 2 small stretch marks that have popped up where the puck marks were left from my last pregnancy. Is it possible that I could get away with only these 2 marks the rest of my pregnancy? Or should I start preparing myself for more to show? 
Any Mammas who have only had a few marks show up? Or if you get some, do lots more always appear?

Answer

My mum had none at all until the day I was born.. then they wee everywhere. I’d say brace yourself for more in all honesty. You cannot prevent them, it’s genetic whether you get them or now. My tummy and sides are COVERED in them 🤦🏻‍♀️

Answer

I’m on #3 and never really had any stretch marks.  The ones I did get were on the backs of my thighs rather than my belly and completely disappeared after giving birth.
28 weeks now and hopeful for more of the same this time round (nothing yet), although I am 35 now so possibly less elastic than when I had my other 2 in my 20’s.  Only time will tell 🙂

Answer

With my 5 year old, I didn’t have any until after i delivered my son and they had to massage out the placenta. Im almost 28 weeks with his sister and all the marks that developed after his delivery are now getting really dark but haven’t multiplied. 
I just figure stretch marks is part of the process at one time or another.

Answer

My first pregnancy I thought I was super lucky. I made it to 35 weeks without stretch Marks. And then 1-2 small ones appeared. And then a few days later 2-3 more and so on. Until I had several large marks covering the underside of my belly.
