I only have a couple on my boobs underneath which is weird because they have not got noticeably bigger yet.
I have old white stretch marks on the sides of my upper hips from weight loss/weight gain years ago I have been putting lotion on those as well so they they hopefully dont spread and turn pink
I have some old ones I have on my lower belly, hips and boobs from the last pregnancy (didn't get any but a few on my lower belly and barely any on my boobs from my first pregnancy) and haven't really accumulated much more. Long may it last!!
I have a few tiny ones on my butt, but I think they were already there before LO. From what I understand, stretch marks are hereditary. So if your mom and sisters did not have them then you probably wont get them either and vice verse as well. I'm not worried about the stretch marks (my mom and my sisters didn't get them) but I am worried about the elasticity of my stomach. I sure hope it smoothes back out instead of looking all wrinkled and loose. If so...tummy tuck here I come!
On my boobies and these beautiful rainbow ones on my sides over my hips. I figured those were coming since my hips have always been a full size smaller than my waist.

My mom had four babies and never got them but my sister got them last year when she had her first. Not sure what this means for me! It seems most people get at least a few, I'm was just wondering about when to expect them to start cropping up if they decide to form.
i have too many to count on my belly. BUT when i was 18, i had my apendix out and i have a 4.5 inch nasty scar level with my belly button. it healed from the inside out (super bad complications, ruptured colon, peritonitis, four months in the hospital) and so the the right side of my belly is not even anyway. i think that i is why i have so many on my belly, from the scar spot being pulled tight.
but, i have them under my arms, my boobs and my legs. i have them, they are light and no amount of lotion would have stopped them!

I have tons on my tummy, and most of them started low and now have spidered up across my belly. I did the creams and stuff but I knew I'd get em. My mom has em pretty bad from her pregnancys so I always knew I'd get em too. Small price to pay for a sweet little healthy baby and I am totally fine with it =D
I don't have any on my stomach yet. My mom never got any with my brother or myself but my poor boobs. They grew like two cup sizes in 6 weeks and they definitely have some.

I don't have any yet, but I have a bunch of faded ones on my hips and boobs from when I went through puberty. I'm figuring that means I'm susceptible to them and I'm expecting them to pop out at any moment. I slather on the cocoa butter in hopes that'll help!
I know it is 100% superficial and please do not light me on fire ((I try to be honest on our board)), but stretch marks are my worst nightmare! I don't even like saying the words. I did not get any during my last pregnancy until after I had DS and only on my hips. I gained abt 55 lbs. the first time around so they were inevidably from the gain/loss. I am praying to the PG gods that they do not creep up this time around. I know I've got he big stretch coming up in the next 90 days so fingers crossed.
P.S. My mom did have them, however I dodged the bullet the last time around.

This exactly. My boobs went up two cup sizes, but they are used to being stretchy I guess (they were a 34DD to start and kinda saggy).
I only got them on my boobs and top of butt last time... and they didnt come up until right before I delivered.. I went from a 34D to coming out of a 34F so the boobs were inevitable.... and It seems I am on the same track this time around. no new stretch marks this time so far.... I am hoping to make it with out any on the tummy this time too!

My stretch marks from 1st pregnancy are starting to bigger and bigger. With my 1st pregnancy I did not get stretch marks until late in the 3rd tri.
