re: "Pregnant with what.. a goldfish?"

I'm 35 weeks and have so many that I get stretch marks ON my stretch marks lol. But I didn't have any until 30 weeks when he dropped for the their time and stayed there. If your money, had the, your likely to get the,m because that's a genetic thing. I'm also the size of someone 5 weeks ahead of me and its all belly. So be glad your not huge. Don't worry your baby is healthy and your body is just different is all. :-)

[snip!] ... ones until 40 weeks, but after a few weeks of losing baby weight and my belly going down i realized there were a lot more lol "</blockquote>


I think they are more apparent on pp belly than preg belly cause they are stretched then when they compress down it makes them darker

DEF, the heavier i am the less you see them, the skinnier i am, the more i see EVERYWHERE.
I have an Eating disorder (FULL RECOVERY) but at my sickest, i had them on my entire body and was just bones. It was terrible.

*kicks you in the shin*

im the same way... 33 weeks just had my maternity pics done yesterday and she was like "im having a hard time getting your bump your so small" and I was like wow... I have 7 weeks left no stretch marks... i barely look pregnant but the baby is bigger than he should be weirrrd.

I went from perfectly smooth and sexy to BAM a week later I was covered. They hit me at 32 weeks. I had my hopes up that they wouldn't come too lol.

I never got any stretch marks with my first. With my second I only noticed one very very small one after the birth however with my third I gained a bunch. You just never know. I'm expecting a whole lot this time around. Getting stretch marks or not getting stretch marks is no indication of how the baby is doing and just because you look small doesn't me anything either. I measured behind by almost three weeks with my second from like the 28 week on and she was my biggest baby.

I'm hoping I wont! But who knows still got 10 more weeks to go. Im only 4'11 so I have a small torso. I'm just wondering if I'll REALLY pop soon?. Thanks for the help ladies xox

Even at 40 week & 4 days I am pretty tiny. I didn't start getting stretch marks until 38 weeks. Be careful what you wish for

I didn't get any stretch marks with my daughter until I was 38 weeks pregnant. >=[

Aaaaah so I guess it's just not my time yet. Or maybe it just wont happen .
I just want a healthy BB!

with my 2nd baby I never even really showed. I had a tiny belly but it didn't even look "pregnant". I even went on maternity leave at 36 weeks and most the people I worked with didn't even know I was expecting lol.

Are you kidding me!? I'm jealous! My stomach looks like my toddler scribbled all over it! I had a lot with my first pregnancy too, most of them went away. i'm hoping for the same this time.

but no i wouldn't be concerned. your dr should be doing the tape measurements at every appt anyways to measure your uterus. trust me my little one does have a growth problem, and they made me start regular ultrasounds at 20 weeks.

Oh my! well thasts good they went away pretty fast. they turn clear right?
