  • stretchmarks aren't hereditary and even skinny girls can get them. They have to do with the amount of elasticity in your skin. someone posted something about them the other day and there was a link in there about stretchmarks. it said 90% of pregnant women will get them.
  • My mom didn't get them, I was really skinny so used all the lotions money could buy yea lots and lots of stretch marks later. Ill never wear a bikini again
  • Aww knowing ill get strechmarks bumps me out. Any advice on how to make them dissapear
  • i use vitamin E oil, i dont think you can make them disappear completely but it definitely will help reduce the redness and make them way less noticeable.
  • @momamar - does it really reduce the redness? Has it worked for you? I'm getting it on my breasts and its actually red while the one on my belly are light colored (32weeks now).
  • My mom had ten kids and no stretch marks... I have a 2.5 yr old son and didn't get any with him and now im 20wks pregnant with a lil grl and praying I get lucky again.
