I'm carrying my LO pretty low, and I have a lot of stretch marks. Everyone I know that is carrying higher don't have any yet (we're only a few weeks apart).....can anyone confirm or deny this?
Also my LO likes to hang out on my right side ALL the time...so there is triple the amount of stretching over there. so that kind of sucks too...
Re: Stretchmarks and carrying low
I am carrying in the middle/low. I just found my first two this week. Now I am putting more lotion on...I have been putting lotion on morning and night...but now I am reapplying all day. Mine are low under the belly button.
I am just hoping not to many....or them preading and getting worse.
I'm carrying high and as of yesterday, I have them. I feel lots of movement low though.
I also hear it's all genetics. My mom had them, but I was hoping that I was going to avoid it since she gained 60 lbs with us and I haven't gained that much. No such luck.
I'm carrying pretty low IMO (although I don't really have a whole lot to compare it 2) and haven't got any stretch marks on my stomach.
But I do have 3 longer yucky looking marks on each side...
I call them my Tiger Stripes!
I'm carrying low...have zero stretch marks..my LO is always on left...who knows!
