Re: weight gain and strectch marks
I gained 48 pounds and didn't et any stretch marks on my belly, which was pretty darn big. I did get a few on my butt, which was gard to believe because I didn't think that my butt could get any bigger than it already was. They looked like cat claws and now they're barely visible. I also got a few on my boobs, but I also went from a 34 big B, small C to a 36 E when I was nursing.

Re: weight gain and strectch marks
I gained 60lbs with DD and only had one small, faint stretchmark by my belly button (it wasn't visible after I had DD.)

Re: weight gain and strectch marks
Genetics does have a lot more to do with it than how much you do or do not gain.
I've gained 31 pounds so far (at 33 weeks), and I have one that appeared a couple weeks ago. It's at the very bottom of my stomach area, so it really shouldn't be visible much. I'm just hoping that's the only one!

Re: weight gain and strectch marks
I've gained 27 lbs...am almost 36 weeks and no stretch marks. I've been using Cocoa Butter though, so I don't know if that helps.

Re: weight gain and strectch marks
i gained 55 with my first and put cocoa butter on everyday. did not have one stretch mark on my stomach but at 39 weeks started to get them on my thighs and hinney. they are starting to fade. i did gain alot in my legs and butt. also when my milk came in i got tiny stretch marks on the breast area since i went from a 34d to a 38d to a 42e. so the growth from pregancy to milk coming in was alot for my body. i think its genertics with the stretch marks.

Re: weight gain and strectch marks
I didn't get stretch marks my whole pregnancy and gained 45 pounds and then got them after the babies were born. They just appeared after the belly started deflating.
