Shiny skin

My tummy is suddenly extra smooth & shiny looking.  I'm only 5 weeks & 5 days , I thought I was going crazy so I asked my fiance & he agreed. Anyone else notice this or knows something about it?  Or are we just tripping?

It's shinny because your stomach is growing and stretching. Don't scratch it! Lol and invest in some stretch mark cream or oil. They won't prevent stretch marks but it will keep you from being itchy (step after it being shinny) and it makes the stretch marks not so noticeable.  :)
