I have stretch marks on my boobs...they went up a size within a month, but I don't have any in my stomach area. Does this mean that I'm not getting any?
No way. I've heard of cases where women get them after labor. I got mine on my hips around 30ish weeks and they just keep getting worse. Nothing on my belly yet, but I definitely don't consider myself in the clear.
I started getting them around 28-30 weeks and then they just keep getting worse and worse...I'm still getting them, now on my butt and between my thighs! UUGHH
When I think about how much longer I've got to go, it feels like its around the corner. I feel as if my boobs have stopped growing, and the belly is slowly but, surely coming along. Thanks ladies!
I've always had them on my thighs and hips from previous weight gain and loss, but they started appearing on my stomach in the past 2 weeks (28-30 weeks) and they definitely get worse each week.
Ummm...no. I had none at 28 weeks with my first. Then I woke up one morning (literally) and found my entire belly covered in raised, red, itchy stretch marks. I was around 34 weeks.
Good luck..i hope you don't for your sake, but i've seen tons of posts on here where women don't get stretch marks on their belly until in the late 30wks when they are at their biggest and close to delivery. I know they suck, but eh...what're ya gonna do?

Didn't have a single one until after my son was born.
No. I got strech marks on my belly 1 week before I had my son at 39 weeks. I thought I might not get them, but viola they appeared. They have gotten lighter though and look less and less visable week.

Nope. You might stay stretchmark free, you might be like me...I didn't have any until 2 weeks ago.

I JUST got mine - they are on the underside of my belly where my skin isn't even tight, that's kind of where my fat got pushed down....I make DH inspect every week and he just found these 2
It is not for sure either way. It really is genetic. I don't have any on my tummy from either of my boys. Whether your mom has stretch marks might be a good indication if you will get them.
Re: No stretch marks yet...am I safe?
Nope. And don't go jinxing yourself!
There have been plenty of ladies around here who said they had some show up just days before delivery.
Your baby still has a lot more growing to do.. I wouldn't hold my breath yet!

Not a chance.
I got the first hint of mine at around 32 weeks, and they are now horrible.
Aww..chucks! I thought I was good!

Okay, now you girls are scaring me...lol!
You're definitely not in the clear.
I don't have any on my belly, but I started getting them elsewhere around 32 weeks or more.

I got my first one about 3 weeks ago, so I would have been 36 weeks.
Sorry to disappoint you!
