After a lovely bath i have just discovered what appears to be tiny red stretch marks on the bottom bit of my rather small boobs...but as far as im aware they havent actually grown since becoming pregnant!!! Is this some kind of joke? My tummy has gotten super big recently and thankfully i havent got any there YET but is it common to get them without actually having your skin even stretch? Haha. I just showed DP and his words of wisdom are that maybe they have grown 'inside'. hmmmm!!

Hmmm... Well, maybe they have grown but you can't tell in relation to your tummy?

Changing subject slightly, I used Bio Oil from about 5 months to end of pregnancy and I have only one, tiny stretch mark. My mum has loads so I assumed I would too. And I was 41. So, I think it works (if you're worried about stretch marks, of course).

I havent noticed my bras being tight or anything so thats why i assumed they havent grown, im only a B so i thought i would have noticed any form of change haha but maybe not as i guess it is ridiculous to think i would get stretch marks without having grown.
And its funny you say about bio oil, ive been using it but only on my tummy so i guess maybe it really does work! think i will start smothering myself all over with it!!

I am 39+4 and awoke to my first stretch mark - to say I'm annoyed is an understatement!
I thought I'd got away with it again this pregnancy but it appears not , can't believe the little blighter has had a growth spurt so close to the end!
