If you got them, when did you start to notice them?

Good question. I was wondering this too.

I'm midway through my 27th week and haven't gotten any yet. But I know I'm nowhere near out of the woods.

Did you have any prior to your pregnancy??

I guess I'm susceptable to them, I got them on my upper thigh as a teenager b/c I had a massive growth spurt one summer.

Re: lets talk stretchmarks...

I did not have any strech marks (not 1) until the last 2 weeks and they were tiny little nothings towards the back of my hips. After I had the baby, I got them between my thighs, (which I creamed regularly) on my belly and the tiny nothings on my back became much more apparent... Sorry

No I had never gotten stretch marks before and my mother never got them so I was sure I was not going to get them. The good news was that after about a year they faded so that they were barely visible.

that doesn't mean you'll get them on your belly.

i have stretch marks on my butt and hips from growing, but didn't get any on my belly from my first pregnancy.
hoping for none again this time around! Chat Icon

Only on my boobs so far. They came at 9 weeks!! After the first trimester they didn't seem to get any worse. But I needed a new bra VERY early on!

Re: lets talk stretchmarks...

I started getting them around 30 weeks w/ my first...
By the end, they were AWFULChat Icon

With this pregnancy all of my previous marks are all "white"- I suspected they'd get all red and irritated early on this time around- but so far, so good...

Re: lets talk stretchmarks...

I had twins, but I started getting them around 15 weeks! They srated really low around my pubic bone and slowly spread up. The way my babies were situated(like a T) was just too much for my skin to handle. I weigh 25 lbs less than before pregnancy but my stomach is a mess

Re: lets talk stretchmarks...

I had them prior to pregnancy from when I was a teenager I had gained a lot of weight and then lost a lot of weight. Therefore I started getting more while preggo around 16 weeks or so.

Re: lets talk stretchmarks...

Ladies that got stretch marks - did you use any creams from the beginning of your pregnancy?
