Im 29 weeks on Friday and haven't gotten any anywhere yet and praying I don't! My mom didn't get any so we'll see if it's really true that I might not. If you do get them, I've read that rubbing Vicks vapor rub all over them helps tremendously!!

My mom never got them and when I was 27 weeks I woke up and had them all over under my bump...I freaked out!!! Now I'm almost 30 weeks and they are very noticeable. I've kept my whole body moisturized with lotion and vitamin e oils but if your going to get them, nothing really helps. I'm hoping they fade away...At 24 years old I am not ready for all that!

28 Weeks and haven't yet. I have been using Palmer's coca butter with vitamin e since I found out I was pregnant and then I started using a burts bees belly oil whenever I get out of the shower. I have noticed within the past couple of days that I am SO itchy on my belly, but I just resist the urge lol. I figured if I get them I get them. If not, then score! Either way my body is never going to be the same and that's perfectly fine

Okay good! Lol I'm 28 weeks and have none yet and my mom didn't really get any so I'm hoping I don't either... I've been using bio oil twice a day & I love it!

None that I can see so far... Almost 28 weeks. FTM. My mom doesn't have any from me though so...

I didn't get them with DD until about 35 weeks. Those are becoming more noticeable now with this pregnancy, but no new ones have emerged. My mom didn't have any with me, but my dad's mom got them with her kids so I'm assuming that's where the genetics come into play.

I started to get them on my butt and thighs, I have had them since high school on my butt. Then I started to get them on my boobs and love handles. Now they're coming on the underside of my belly. There is no way to really stop them. I've been using palmers coco butter lotion and now I'm using the belly butter, probably all a waste of time but I guess it's worth a try.

I was gonna ask about this yesterday! I have previous stretch marks from when I was heavier in highschool that have always been really light , just yesterday I noticed towards the top of some of them I have like reddish/ purplish dots is this the start of new stretch marks ?

I noticed yesterday a few new stretch marks. I am 28 weeks. I have had stretch marks from when I was younger and when I had my daughter. I am also already bigger now then when I was 39 weeks with daughter.

You guys try Aloe Vera. I'm rubbing it all over my boobs and belly and I feel like it's really helping. The few that were coming in on my lower belly are even starting to fade already.

With my first I didn't get any until 40+ weeks. It was a bummer bc I went almost two weeks over and in that short amount of time there was much destruction. So this time I'm not even worried about it--but I will say that they get lighter over time. I never tried any ointments, but if you get at them early and often with aloe or even mederma I bet they would improve quicker.
