Mommies with stretch marks
Curious to know when do you usually get stretch marks, around how many months were you ladies when and if you got them im 25 weeks and have none but wondering if i will get them in the future. Thank you
Let's see if I can voice my opinion on this question and not get accused of being a bad parent haha!
You are lucky! I am 29 weeks and I have them already, its all in your genes! Of you start to notice them try dry body brushing a few times a day, that's what I do and it helps a lot.

I am 28 weeks ftm and I have gained 30 lbs and still no stretchmarks :) I drink A LOT of water and eat healthier and try to stay as active as my body will let me though lol so it just depends....
I didnt have any until around 37 weeks, im now 39 weeks and have them on my lower mid belly cant see them too much though cause my whole stomach is tattooed. Everyone thought I was gonna be lucky and have none at all. Keep your skin moisturized, it'll help keep them small :) also, if your stomach gets itchy dont scratch it no matter what, just go put lotion on asap. Good luck.
Im kind of a big girl in the thigh and stomach area so i had stretch marks before i was pregnant so idk if they're darker or anything lol i cant really see past my stomach anymore. Im 21 weeks
I didn't have a single stretch mark my whole pregnancy. Then I gave birth and they decided to show up! It's been 9 months though and they are pretty light now.
If your mom has stretch marks you probably will too. There's a strong genetic component concerning your skin's ability to stretch. I didn't get any and gained over 40 pounds during my first pregnancy.
I started getting some at around 20 weeks. I only gained 16 pounds my whole pregnancy. It's a hit or miss kind of thing.
