I only got a few and they are way down low
on my abdomen. I think they came along
about week 32. I know lotions don't help
everyone, but I used some every time I got
out of the shower/bath. It helped with
the itching.

Funny, Vanessa. I was actually going to
post the same question. I didn't get
stretch marks with my first baby but I am
currently the same size right now as I was
around 32 to 34 weeks with him. My mom got
horrible stretch marks with her second and
third pregnancy. I am a little worried. I
guess I am a little OCD about the subject
as well:)!!

Stretch marks are completely dependent on
your skin's ability to stretch. Some women
might get them immediately, and others
will get them later.
I have tons of stretch marks - I also
gained a lot of weight, so it stands to
reason, the bigger you get, the more
likely the stretch marks are.

Hmm i got my first at about 21 weeksish
and that was over my belly bar so was
kinda uunderstandable for it to come
early. I've only just noticed some on my
lower back in the past weeks or so, so i
guess i'll have to say at 27-28 weeks

I don't have any stretch marks (knocks on
wood). I bought .Palmer's .Tummy .Butter
.for .stretch .marks and have been using
it religiously every day. It has vitamin
e, collagen and elastin in it. So we'll
see how well it works. But so far, so
good!

i have the same horizontal ones on my
back. My skin's very prone to stretch
marks though so i'm prepared i've got
loads of faded ones from pubity that don't
bother me so i'm sure i'll cope when i get
some more! I'm a weirdo and think
pregnancy stretch marks look beautiful
though

I have three, and i didn't get them until
after i delivered, or let me say that i
didn't notice them until after i
delivered. They are right on top of my
belly button....and i think that if i
didn't have the belly button ring i
wouldnt' have gotten them....but hell,
i'll stick with three.
