Q: Stretch marks- When did yours show up?

I'm 33 weeks and do not have any stretch marks yet. I'm just wondering if my luck will last? Has anyone else made it this far and then gotten them?

With my son I only got them on my hips and some on my thighs. I use "save my skin" by Pure Romance and as long as I was using it everyday my marks lightened up. I think i didn't notice my thighs till after I had him but that was prolly because I didn't have that big bump blocking my view lol

You won't see the little ones till the baby is out, unless you squish your skin together. I too thought I had made it free and clear but nope after the baby comes out you can see them and even later after that you will notice them in places you didn't think you had any right after the birth. I do not have big purple ones. The worse one I have is where my belly button was pierced. So get in the mirror and squish your belly skin together and you might see what I am talking about. I did it everyday to keep track.

Hi

at 33 weeks i had stretch marks on my boobs and on my hips but none on my belly . at 38 weeks i have 4 very small like half a centimeter stretch marks on the underside of my belly but im pretty happy with that. all the stretch marks on my boobs are brown and the hip ones are light red. Hopefully you will get away with not having any at all.. Goodluck!
