Stretch marks- On Ribs??!

[Bentleysmommy18]

So the past 2 days I've been out of town visiting my husband while he's working! I started having a really wierd burnish tingle on my side everytime I laid on it!

Well lastnight I had enough and I went and looked in the mirror an I'm getting stretch marks on my ribs of all places!!?

I'm carrying my son really really low and I guess it's pulling the skin down from my ribs!! It HURTS!
I have a lot of stretch marks on my hips and lower stomach and none of them felt like this!! I'm 20w 1d!!

Anyone else ever feel this!? I feel like it's the oddest place to get stretch marks!!

I have been using the Mama Mio tummy rub oil, and im obsessed with it! Its supposed to help expand the elasticity of your skin. Im so sorry your in pain :( good luck mama! -- 20w 3d

Try changing your lotion. It may help Sweetie.
Dial is normally an anti-bacterial soap. And has very little moisturizers to add to your skin.

This small change might make a huge difference. Try a different soap and lotion. Hopefully it will help.

I put dial extra dry skin lotion on every night after I bathe with dial mosturizing body wash but it stretched like that when I was away from my lotion for 2 nights so that could have something to do with it!

Wow, that's really early to have that type of stretching. Make sure you're using bathing soap that moisturize your skin vs the kind that strips moisture from your skin.

I use Olay Shea butter bar soap. I moisturize with St.Ives Collagen lotion and add Palmers Shea Butter on top of it.

I know stretch marks are gonna happen, but try to stay mositurized and well hydrated.
