What is pups

With my first I literally didn't have any until I turned 38 weeks and I developed pups which through me in a scratching fit ?

I think a part of it depends when you "blow up". Over the last 2 weeks, I went from 0-100 with a baby bump and got them during that period already (20 weeks). I think for me, it's just because it happened so quickly, my skin didn't have time to know what was happening lol.

I noticed them on my butt first because I had no butt before! And those I got around 25 weeks I want to say. Belly ones started coming about the month before delivery and continued to get worse, like pp said it was probably from scratching! I got ones on my boobs when my milk came in! They all faded pretty nice and I'm hoping I don't have room for more stretch marks this time around but we shall see!

Just don't be scared the color of them! At first they're really dark but I promise they do fade after awhile. It's partly from hormones

My cousin didn't get any till the week before she delivered she had none beautiful skin and then bam horrible stretch marks my suggestion would be start lotioning up now to start moisturizing your skin and helping the elasticity coconut oil works really good too and drinking lots of water

The last month or so of pregnancy. My stomach was soooo itchy and I couldn't help scratching and I'm sure that did not help because I got a bunch of stretch marks as a result :(

I was so bummed when I first got them, but I honestly couldn't care less now. I'm not Miranda Kerr needing my body to look perfect to make $$. My stretch marks have all faded and I could wear a bikini if my stomach was flatter.

Lol @ rampart, me too I was just thinking maybe I'll get lucky and this won't be so bad...now I'm worried again but it's all worth it I can't wait for the stretch marks because I'll be meeting my son so soon.

Yep, the very last month. I got them with my first & didn't get any additional with my second. Hoping to not get anymore this time around.

Last 3-4 weeks.

Good to know. Here I was feeling smug because I don't have any but apparently this is waaaay too early lol

With my first I noticed them at 16 weeks. I haven't gotten any new ones yet with this pregnancy. I'm 21 weeks.

I got them both pregnancies around 38 weeks. Only gained 15 lbs and normal weight range to begin with.

With my first I didn't have any until around 36 weeks and then BAM! My belly blew up and got huge and I got a bunch of stretch marks.
