Didnt get stretch marks till I was 31 weeks along. I'm 33 weeks now and they are getting darker. I used Palmer's lotion like it was nothing. Then my boyfriend noticed my stretch marks and I cried like a baby. I knew they would come but I was hoping they wouldn't. Each time I look at them I get so frustrated. I know it's so worth it when we get to hold our little boy. But I'll never look like myself again..

There are plenty of things you can do to fade them after, I'm going to try some whenever I feel better

guess the lotion only works for a little bit... I guess there's beauty in it though cause it's a reminder that you carried a human inside of you. which is precious. just wish us woman didnt have to get stretch marks.

I pack on lotion every night and let my skin absorb it.its helped I guess beacause I only have the faded line down the middle

@jazmin805, at least you have the faded line. I don't have it but I break out a little on my belly. don't know if it's the lotion or hormones. or both.

I discovered stretch marks on my tummy at 34 weeks. I just started using Maderma. I heard that it works wonders.

Don't try to stress over them bc for some reason right after birth I got more stretch marks above my abdomen and down my pelvic area. So it's always best to take care of them during the post partum period.

Coconut oil! It works so amazing I use it everywhere and it faded the stretch marks I had on my boobs so it might do the same for you and there are so many uses for it even for the baby when it's born. (I put some in my dogs food and it makes his skin so healthy) But I have heard if you smear Vicks vapor rub on your belly wrap it in plastic wrap and leave on while you sleep for a couple nights it's supposed to get rid of them but I haven't tried that. Good luck!

I used bio oil religiously and was shocked to still get stretch marks. My ob told me it's straight up hereditary.. No lotion or oil will prevent mine. My only hope of having a stretch mark free tummy is getting a tummy tuck after munchkin gets here😒

I hear you on being sad about my body not looking the same after our boys are born. I used to have the best abs ever and now I look at myself and want to cry sometimes. But deep down I know that no matter what happens I will have our baby boy to love for the rest of my life.. I would rather have that than abs any day ☺️💙🍼👶🏻
