stretch marks?

If you have them, when did they show up? I have had them on my boobs since puberty so I was thinking I would definietly be getting some on the belly...not that I'll complain if they decide to stay away.

    I had a lot of stretch marks on my hips throughout puberty but knock on wood no new ones yet.

    I got them in my 25 week or so. I dont have very elastic skin...so I bear the pregnancy service stripes.

    I've got a couple on boobs and hips. Nothing too scary.  I told my husband that they're to make me look faster like lightning bolts.  None of belly yet.

    Not until AFTER I delivered #1 (4 small ones that eventually faded). I have not gotten any thus far...even those ones have not shown back up. I'm counting on seeing some in 2 weeks though!

    I started getting them at 25 weeks.  I had quite a bit on my breast, thighs and hips, but these are new and red.  Yuck!

    I have a couple really low on my belly, but basically none you can see when looking straight at me. I made it my whole pregnancy with #1 without any stetch marks. BUT I lost weight SO quickly after giving birth that I got some pretty ugly ones. I had gained 27lbs and lost 30 within 2 weeks, I don;t recommend it!
