When did you get your stretch marks?

Question

FTM here and I’m just curious as to when everyone noticed their stretch marks because everyone keeps saying “oh honey wait till you see your marks”.

Answer

Had them before any of my babies. 😕

Answer

I got a few after birth.

Answer

i had one faint line that appeared over night right at 25 weeks...then about a week later it literally turned into this overnight. They came completely out of nowhere in a matter of one day.

I've used bio oil twice daily from the moment I got a positive test. I also drink a ton of water all day everyday. I also haven't been itchy or anything AT ALL. I think some of us are just doomed no matter what

Answer

I never got any with my first and non so far at 26 weeks with my second.

Answer

I know with my first I got them around 30 something. I tried to prevent everything from getting them and still got them. If you do get them, know that they fade/go away.

Answer

My son was born at 37+5...I got stretch marks at 36weeks :(

Answer

I know that genetics can play a big part. My skin gets them easily so I use some kind of lotion or coconut oil every day and it’s helped. Also if you itch it’s a good sign of dry skin and to add some lotion. Try not to scratch them my cousin thinks it made hers worse.

Answer

I had some on my side but thankfully none on my stomach. It does it at times I try not to itch and I always but lotion and oil and it helps with the itchiness. I’m 26 weeks

Answer

I made it to 34 weeks with my first before my first ones popped up and then they spread like wildfire. My second kid only made a few a little worse and now I am on number three and 26 weeks and I stopped noticing lol. I don't think they look horrible but I wish I could have avoided them.

Answer

Not sure, but I'm at 27 weeks with my first and don't have any (visible) ones yet. I had to use a handheld mirror to check the bottom of my belly 😂 I'm very pale and the stretchmarks I already have from past growth spurts are white and not so different from my skin tone. Really hoping any I do get are similar. I did recently get the slight dark line down my belly, at around 26 weeks. But that is supposed to go away.
