When did you get stretch marks?

dpluvsrg · June 2010

I'm at the end of my 32nd week being pg. I thought I would have them by now, since I got them during my growth spurt in junior high. So far, no marks. Am I out of the woods, or will they be showing up now? I've heard this is when I'll gain a lot of weight faster, so I don't want to get excited about no marks if they might still make an appearance! Thanks!

At 32 weeks, I had gotten them already, but I have friends who didn't get them until the very end. You never know!

They say they're genetic but my mom and sister never got any. I was blessed with a ton

I got my 1st stretch mark underneath one of my boobs at 38 weeks.

I somehow have a few tiny white ones around my belly button that were never pink or present before delivery. You can hardly see them, though. I never got any other stretch marks on my stomach, butt, or hips.

My boobs, however, are a totally different story. Due to BFing, I can no longer count the amount of stretchies I have on them I was not prepared for that at all!

This is just wrong! Thanks for the info ladies. I figured I was not out of the woods, but I was hopeful!

At 32 weeks, I went into preterm labor and still didn't have any stretch marks. However, after I gave birth-there they were and still are!! I now have ugly purple lines on my belly from deflating!!

i thought i was out of the woods too. didn't get them until abuot 35/36 weeks. total bummer. some people are blessed and some are not. i don't care how much cocoa butter you rub on your belly, didn't help me!

I noticed one on my stomach, just above my belly button around 30 weeks but it was very small, and of course as I have gotten bigger it has too LOL. I also had one on my thigh from when I was younger too and that one has gotten much worse, I made a huge mistake and neglected my thighs when it came to the vitamin e and all that, so they are terrible!!! I bought some bio-oil and started using that hoping it will help, but I really hope after i have DD they will eventually lighten up or something cuz they are red and deep... its kinda depressing lol

I just started to notice some last week (36 weeks)... right where my waist stretches to accommodate my ever expanding belly...

At 33 weeks

36 weeks, I got them BAD. Probably 100 on my tummy and now it's one big wrinkly jiggly mess now that I'm back to my prepregnancy weight. I have no sympathy for those complaining about a few here and there.

still none yet for me at 36 weeks, but I'm not calling it a win just yet lol.
