Stretchies!!
Where part if your body did you get the worst baby lines!!
I only got 2 on my stomach but I gave birth at 37 weeks. I'm sure I would've gotten more if baby decided to stay in longer.
nightmare ay!.. anybody no any good creams oils (that work lol) to use afterwards to reduce the redness??
None on my tummy yet.. im 33 weeks so there's still a chance.
My boobs are a mess.. Got some on my lower back.. hips.. and my butt.
Everywhere but my stomach.

Everywhere but my stomach.
The worst (and pretty much only) area I got any were on my breasts. I didn't get any on my stomach, I got a few on my lower back and I have 3-4 on my inner thighs.
lol!! aww i haven't got any on my butt yet!! fingers crossed i dont but you never know!.. i got them like only a few on my butt and boobs in secondary school tho! lol just from growing lol
@ agrell aww I kinda hope he is smaller like lol!!! yeah i have a few friends who didnt get any and there tummys just popped back to normal afterwards lol im so jel ... aww thats true you should start using it now and throughout your next pregnancy and hopefully they wont be as bad ! i wish i had have used bio oil from day one just to see if it had have made a difference !!!
it does take time and it will tighten up again and marks will fade but in my experience, it never goes back to the way it was, even with workouts, etc. :( but our babies are worth it.
yea the stretch marks in my pubic area leading to my tummy are my worst, they are massive ripped skin, id say my tummy/pubic area is 98% stretched skin and 2% normal skin, my sister friend had a baby at 16 shes now around 30 and apparently her stretch marks and saggy skin were just as bad as mine, she showed me her tummy now and my god it looks 100times better, hardly saggy and couldn't really see stretch marks, this gives me hope that over time they will get better!! also i find that dry brushing can help a little with tightening your skin back up, but mostly just takes time i think
Sounds like he will be a nice size :)) but ultrasounds arent always right especailly with weight...my son was suppose to be 8lbs+ at birth and was only 6lbs15oz...some girls young dont get any stretch marks but i wasnt lucky...i had my son at 19 and well yea that was a bust...i didnt start getting stretch marks on my belly till about 32 wks but i had them on my side and thighs way before that...i heard that mederma for stretch marks works great...or bio oil but havent tried any yet since we are tryin for #2 didnt see the point in getting rid of them just to have them pop up again...lol
and agrell sounds like you have had a tuff time with them !! =( tbh i think i might end up the same way lol just found a few on my thighs last night lol
i am almost 35 weeks , and so far i have not get any , but i was look like pragnant before even i got pregno , my belly was too big . people would asked me how long am i pragnant , that was bad lol . i think i am not going to be able to lose this belly after having my baby , :)
yeah im really panicing incase i end up with saggy skin i wonder what the chances will be.. my tummy is completley ruined with stretch marks !!! and im not even 32 weeks until weds! started getting them around 20 weeks and theyve just got really bad lol im 20 so i wonder if your younger girls stretch worse is true lol!!.. i also have them on my pubic area ming lol!.. i used creams to from 7 weeks load of rubbish they are!! lol my baby measured 3lbs 3 at my 29 week check up lol!! yous think he will be big??
Belly, boobs, thighs, calves, butt, hips i think the only place i didnt get them was my arms :(
yea bad genetics and big bubys mean a whole lot of stretch marks, ino if id had a baby that was 8 pound or under i probably wouldn't have stretched at all it was just that last month were i got massive and was left to go two weeks overdue that my stomach turned into a violent red itchy mess, strangers thought i was having twins but my midwive said no no its just alot of fluid!!! your babys not huge! really annoys me now lol and to me it also seems the younger you are the MORE you stretch i don't know why but that's just the way it seems from the people i know. the stretch marks do fade though the thing that annoys me more is the saggy skin
My tummy is a red and white polka dot heaven! Sad part is that I haven't actually gained any weight it just all seems to have moved to my tummy area. I have been putting creams on it since about 2 months and they are not helping me out at all. I think it's genetics more then anything.
