yeah i'm 5'2" and was 122lbs now im 152lbs lol. i got all my stretchmarks on the thighs butt and hips first. then my son dropped and now i haves em on mah tummeh too. but they are very very light. but the more he grows and the lower he gets the more marks show up on my belly. i double duty my tummy with bio oil (has all this nice vitamin e and stuff in it) and palmers stretch cream and every time i itch (thats a sign the stretch marks are coming) i just lather my tummy up with either one. I'm pretty rpoud of my marks but at the same time wuld like for them to stay as light as possible lol!

bio oil is so expensive but its supposed to be better than cocoa butter i heard. she hasnt dropped yet im only 31 weeks when will i know she will drop?? ive been blessed with no stretch marks yet but after reading your comment i might get them after she drops better start layering that cocoa butter now lol

you should feel like her head is falling out of your vagina lol. lots of pressure and pain, but you'll be able to breath easier. thats how it felt to me. in the morning i was fine, around 3 pm suddenly i could breath better and when i stood to go pe i felt like if i moved he would fall out. it hurts to walk or go the the bathroom or stand but every few days i get relief until he drops more.

i use bio oil everyday and drink TONS of water. no stretch marks, yet! i think it's also because i've been maintaining my weight pretty well

in my third trimester its really hard to eat healthy now i do drinks tons of water but Chinese food and pizza are like so good now lol the doctor says shes healthy and my weight is fine i think the number one thing that has kept my weight so good is exercising im not laying in bed all day im constantly moving..... good key to not getting RLS is to go for a walk during the evening and eat light healthy snack before you go to bed. and for those who go to the bathroom every hour at night cut off your water intake around 9..10ish i only go once through the whole night  

All the research I've found points to stretch marks being genetic, that putting lotion on isn't going to make a difference. Other than soothe your psychi that you at least tried, and tame your itching/dryness, from the stretching.

I still religiously put on Palmers coacoa butter stretch mark cream after I shower... And no stretch marks yet... But my mom never got any either. I just like the smell, and it comfort me knowing I'm doing something positive for my skin.

I think you are right in your research because I have gained a lot of weight during my pregnancy and I haven't had any stretch marks yet. I think the lotion does stop the itching but that's about it. & sometimes I do scratch my belly when it is itchy and I still don't have any stretch marks. *knock on wood* lol

Quoting Kira Sutkay:" and how many weeks are you???"

im 30 weeks

Same here! I love palmers! No stretch marks yet, and I apply it 2-3 times a day. I do beleive it's genetic though, but I still use it just in case. So far...so good  

Oh how I've grown!

7 Weeks

27 Weeks (Taken a few days ago)

Does my belly look weird to anyone? I feel like it's shaped weird now. Rounded out on top then goes flat after the hill lol
