Stretch marks

Who else has them? I didn't notice any until just a few weeks ago and those were only on my hips. Yesterday I found some more on my stomach. I am really bummed out that I now have some more. I guess that baby is growing a lot right now and my stomach is stretching out. Anyone else noticing more marks the later on in their pregnancies?

Re: Stretch marks

  • LOTS of nasty stretch marks on my belly.  Can't wait for them to fade a little after LO is born.

  • Boobs have had them for a while now... went from a C to DD.  UGH.  None on the belly, but just found some on my butt :(

  • Yes I recently noticed a couple on my hips and found a few more on my upper thighs this morning. I was bummed since i had none up until 34 weeks ... Oh well :/
  • I just noticed some small ones on the underside of my belly this week and about cried.

  • My butt and hips have been covered with them for what seems like the entire pregnancy. My chest has a few, but so far my tummy has been spared. I will be estatic if I can make it without any on my stomach.

  • Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it doesn't necessarily end with pregnancy either.  I didn't have any prior to giving birth on the 12th, but woke up about 4 days ago to some on my belly.  So not fair!  Crying

  • I got some on my lower belly about two weeks ago. They seem to be slowly riding up my stomach, but fortunately nowhere ese yet, and I hope it stays that way!
  • With DS i had them on my under belly once he dropped. This time DD likes to push out on my belly button so I have a ring around my belly button and its so painful. Nothing I do helps it and its crazy itchy. The icing.. today as I was lotioning up I noticed that there are these little tiny bumps on some of the stretch marks. I'm going to ask about them tomorrow, but they better not be little scabs from the skin ripping open from being stretched too much.

  • Oh yes. I didn't have a single one until about 32 weeks. And it started with just about 2-3 on each hip which I felt like was pretty manageable and I wasn't upset. Now at almost 37 weeks, they've gotten darker, there are more, and they've expanded...I now have the same ones on my hips, some on my THIGHS (really???) and then some on my lower belly underneath my belly button. I've started using lotion like crazy and I don't feel like it's helping at all. But oh well.

  • I had some on my chest early on, but have pretty much worn sports bras the whole pregnancy because they are more comfy.  And my bra size has barely gone up so that's a plus.  I do have some tiny ones around my belly button so hopefully that's it because at least a bikini can cover up my chest.

    This for me.  It's gross.  I don't want anyone else to see them.  I still have some residual ones from puberty on my boobs and can't tell if they changed from pre-pregnancy or not.

  • I really thought I was doing great, then a few weeks back it was like the stretch mark flood gate opened and they haven't stopped coming.  I guess it was only a matter of time, I have a pretty small frame & am cookin 2 babies at once.  Latley I feel like they are showing up more frequently for sure.
