When did you start getting stretch marks?

How far along were you when you started getting stretch marks?  18weeks?  24 weeks?  12 weeks?  Just curious.  I'm 29w and am just starting to get a few.

I got them on my boobs at the start of 2nd tri when my boobs went BOOM! They haven't grown anymore yet though.

I don't have any yet. I'm hoping it stays that way!

The only stretch marks I wound up with were on my breasts after my milk came in.

Lucky, lucky girl, LB. I got like 4 over night at about 23 weeks. All under my belly button. I now have 6 under my belly button and I'm starting to get some small ones on the side.

We were on our Babymoon @15 weeks when I noticed the 1st of many to come stretch marks on my belly!!  The worst part about it - I hadnt even gained any weight at that point!

This!  At least, I don't have any on my belly.  There are some very light, almost unnoticeable marks on my boobs that I'm hoping (probably in vain) don't get any bigger/darker.

This! I'm using shea butter two or three times a day, but I know if I'm destined to get them (genetically) I will.

I got zero with my 1st pregnancy. With this pregnancy, got some winners around my belly button around week 20. Yay.

Hmm. How much do I want to wear a bikini ever again?

None so far on my belly.  I've been using vitamin E oil on my stomach and making sure to stay super hydrated, since hydration helps with skin elasticity.  I've noticed some on my breasts that just popped up over the last week or so but they are too bad either.  However, I'm a dance teacher and someone told me that I might not get many stretch marks because my skin on my stomach is already pretty elastic from all the bending, stretching and movement I do while dancing.  IDK.  I just know that I do what I can to prevent and I'll just except it if I get them.  I already had some on my thighs that were dance related.  So I'm ok with some new ones.

Not yet so far Hopefully it stays that way!

I don't have any yet, which really surprises me because I've always gotten them on my thighs every time my weight fluctuates even slightly.

Haven't bothered with any sorts of lotions. I don't wear bathing suits anyway.

I was around 30 weeks with my DD and I haven't gotten any new ones yet with this pg but there is still time.

MaybeBaby2

With DD I didn't get any till about 35wks, right around my belly button. This time, I'm not sure if the ones I have (around my belly button) are from her or if they are new ones.

I've got them on my belly and I first noticed them around 26 weeks.

Some of my old stretch marks from when I was overweight reappeared around week 25 and my belly started getting them during week 28. I am prone to stretch marks when I gain weight so I knew I would be getting them.

Butterflylove85

Got them on my boobs around 14weeks and on my stomach at 35 weeks last time. This time, so far, I haven't gotten any new ones. I lathered myself with aloe and lotion last time, this time if it happens it happens.
