when did you start getting stretch marks ?
I'm 6 months right now and nothing (thankfully).
Do they usually show up in the 3rd tri ?
TIA

Re: when did you start getting stretch marks ?
You may never get them, I didnt
I used cocoa butter on my tummy every day. Not sure if that helped.

Re: when did you start getting stretch marks ?
I got a couple of light ones on my boobs (the outer area by my arms) and a bunch on my inner thighs. They showed up because I was neglecting them and not using any cream on them. I have none on my belly.

1 week left and none yet! knock on wood...i think it's more genetic--my mom said she never got any with me or my brother either (but i do use the stretch mark cream daily just in case that helps)

Re: when did you start getting stretch marks ?
my Mom never got them, but I got them on my lower tummy (below my belly button - DEFINITELY covered by a bathing suit) within the past 3 weeks. I'm about 31.5 wks now.
I've used cocoa butter/palmers oil/aquaphor since the BFP.

Re: when did you start getting stretch marks ?
I am 26+ weeks and don't have any yet.
I am prone to them, though. I have them on my knees from when I had a crazy growth spurt when I was younger. They are now silver and no longer pink - DH refers to them as my tiger stripes 
I'm hoping and praying I dont' get them on my belly! I'm not that big at all (belly-wise) so I'm really hoping to avoid them!

Re: when did you start getting stretch marks ?
I think I got my first one a few weeks ago- I think at 32 weeks. I have been putting cream on it but nothing seems to help it. I thought I was in the clear until I saw it on the side of my stomach.

Re: when did you start getting stretch marks ?
i've heard you get them regardless of what you use if your mother had them. i had them on my stomach from a big weight gain i had years ago but up until around 33 weeks, they were white so they weren't noticeable. now that i actually started to gain weight, they're red and i got new ones underneath my belly where i dropped :(
