Well that's just plain cruel......

Despite using vitamin E oil daily, I have ended up with stretch marks on my lower belly, sides and under my boobs. Fine, whatever, I'm growing a human.

Last night though, I noticed that I'm getting stretch marks on the tops of my feet from all the swelling. WTF! Who knew that could even happen?! Grumble grumble grumble........ Please tell me I'm not alone in this latest indignity.

oh no! I have horrible swelling in my legs and feet so hoping i don't get stretch marks but i wouldn't be surprised!

I always hated the ones on my thighs! I didnt even know they were there until after the baby was born and I could see them again!

Oh no! I've had bad swelling in my feet too... I hope that's not in the cards for me! I've been really worried about the tattoo on my ankle stretching, but so far, so good!

I don't see any yet, but my feet/ankles/toes are huge so it's very possible coming. Especially my right foot- looks like it belongs on a different body than my left foot!

Wow, I didn't think stretch mark there were possible either. Hope the swelling goes down. Won't be much longer and baby will be her and it will be worth it! :0)

Ugh that sounds terrible! Put those feet up mama! I will tell you that stretch marks fade with time and those will no longer be visible before you know it.

With my first I got stretch marks from the tops of my inner thighs down to a bit past my knees. The amount and speed that they cropped up concerned my OB enough to send me to a dertmatologist to rule out any underlying condition. It just ended up being another normal pregnancy symptom and by the time she was 1 or 2 they had faded so much that they don't make me self conscious anymore, 5 years later you have to look REALLY closely to see the faint lines.

I think we need to do a postpartum stretch mark check in, you know... When we can ACTUALLY see all our body parts again ;-)

Yikes. Never really thought that was possible, but stretch marks never surprise me anymore. Little sh!ts get everywhere! Put your feet up and try to remember they will fade.

No stretch marks, thank God, but trust me they've got plenty of other worries. These days, my feet are big and puffy and completely incapable of fitting comfortably into closed shoes, which sucks hard when you work in a restaurant kitchen. So glad I've only got 2 days of work left.

I assumed I was safe from dreaded stretch marks. I figured this is the third time I've gotten big. I've got all the stretch marks I'm going to get & then I got bigger then I've ever been. I've got new marks popping up all over the place. I think you may have started a brand new fear in me when I start to feel my legs swell...lol
