How early did u start seeing stretch marks??

edited June 2011 in Pregnant
I have two sisters who have had kids...one has two with not but one itty bitty stretch mark on her hip (its white and I couldn't even hardly see it) and I have another sister who has one and has them from belly button to knee?? I'm soo worried I might get them. When did u first see your stretch marks show up? Im 25 weeks and haven't seen any yet...do they show up later?

  • I'm 20 weeks and have had them for about six weeks: (
  • I got them at 36.5 weeks. I guess that is when your belly really stretches.:-(
  • I've heard a lot of people get them like in the last month...I was kinda hoping I had missed them, but I guess u never know. My friend just told me she had thought there wasn't any until her belly shrunk and then she started to see those thin white ones. :(
  • I got my first ones on my tummy @ 10 weeks!!! Stayed hydrated and gobs if lotion, didn't prevent or help fade at all for me. The ones on my boobs were there so fast at like 5-6 weeks. Lol. No complaints though just was weirded out it happened sooo early!
  • i dont have any yet [-O< im 23+2 weeks
  • hey check out my thread about this. go to my profile and click on my discussions, i got a lot of comments. it will help you :)
  • I have them on my boobs...they have grown so much (not complaining) but I hope they fade. :/ I put lotion on all the time and it didn't seem to help apparently.

  • Well, ill be praying none of us get them...and the ones that do will fade :( I think every pregnant woman dread seeing her first stretch mark!
  • I only got a few on the underside of my breats with my first baby- and she was 9lb4oz! I'm 32w2d with this one and don't have any new ones yet... but I fear the worst because my belly is already stretched to the limit & my belly button popped this week, which never happened last time... I still have almost 8 weeks to go, so we'll see if I luck out again! (Knock on wood!)
    My oldest sister has two boys & got tons of them, but she also went hog wild & packed on the pounds both pregnancies, so I think that's the difference. I've tried very hard to keep the weight gain slow & steady. That's my advice! :) Good luck!
  • I got a few at 22 weeks
  • i didnt get any till 38 weeks now stomach is like a wave of stretch marks think its wen ur bell really stretches
  • just now detting light ones 29 weeks I am plus size but never had any stretch marks now they r very light at the top of my bump
  • Im just now getting some, im 36wks even though I moisturize daily...doesnt stop them!
  • I'm 27 weeks and I have a few on my hips, some on my lower belly and upper thighs. They're not awful...yet anyway lol
  • My boyfriend read in one of his bodybuilding books that vitamin a and e and magnese helps the elasticity of your skin...anyone know if its ok to take a magnese supplement when you're pregnant?
