Right in front on my tummy, around my belly button, where the stretching is really bad it feels like I was punched repeatedly 4 days ago - sort of a dull aching bruised feeling. Anyone else have this or are my stretch marks special?
It looks like a Thomas Guide but feels like I was in a prize fight. I'm also battered feeling on my sides but that's due to my heparin shots. The ones in the middle are the hardest to deal with especially since I'm short and my belly touches every counter surface I come near.
Yes--- around my belly button is discolored and just touching it against the counter or scratching it, it does feel bruised. I figured it's because it's stretched so thin, yet my belly button never has popped out. Glad I'm not the only one who has discoloration around theirs that makes it even look kind of bruised.
I totally have the same issue...it just started a few days ago. I just noticed my first stretched mark and that's where I feel most bruised, so I'm linking the two together. Funny, bc that's not even the most stretched part of my belly (that part is all numb vs feeling bruised).
I hope you feel better soon (ha, like it's a sickness). Hopefully it gets better after baby. ;-)

Re: Anyone else feeling bruised?
Does it feel like you've been punched or look like you've been punched?
I am not sore there, but it does look a bit black and bluish probably from the veins there.
