if you've gotten stretch marks

nikinikinine · October 2010

stupid question, but could you feel the skin pulling and stretching before it broke or did you just wake up one day to find them?

Christakim · October 2010

I couldn't feel it. They just appeared. But seriously, they get better after a few months to the point where you barely notice that they are there sometimes.

Niki- do you have someone who follows you around like a puppy dog and one stars your posts? Who has the time to do that?

Duh Christa, it's cause I'm so popular. All the cool kids get one-starred LOL.

I just woke up with them. Ugh. I just hope I can avoid them on places like my arms and legs. One friend got them on her calves. Ugh, again.

On her calves? Seriously WG, I could have lived a long restful life without knowing that. Now I'm going to be searching my legs for stretchies too.

I noticed I could see spider veins in my face yesterday and I have all of these broken blood vessels in my hands, i was like WTF? The joys, really.

Just woke up one day and they were there. First I got them on my boobs. Then the tops of my thighs. THEN the underside of my gigantic belly!

Ok so apparently I am the freak of the group because I could tell when I had a new stretch mark. I would feel a little ouch/twinge and then get all itchy, and when I looked at my belly I would have a lovely new, red mark.

It's me! I admit it! I just can't bear the thought of how incredibly awesome Niki is... it's pure jealousy. Okay... it really isn't me, and the OSB is pathetic. I was hit by her yesterday. P.S. Niki is awesome.

I just woke up one day and noticed them. Weird thing is I only have them on my right boob and underside of my right belly. They started small but have been growing over the last month but no new ones in 4 weeks.

Just woke up and they were there. You can see what the ones from my last PG look like now a few posts down on my blog. The ones on the side are about a quarter inch thick and definitely noticeable. It's a little better now that my belly has stretched out the extra skin.

I just woke up one day and saw them. They were probably there before then, and I just didn't notice. I only got them below my belly button in my lower-ab area. I didn't see them until 36 weeks. I have a lot of them in a very small area. My skin has been VERY itchy in that area now pp.
