Stretchmarks everywhere but bump

Been eating like a pig whole pregnancy got from 9 stone to almost 11, still have a relatively small bump with no stretchmarks there YET. However I've got stretch marks on my back and ribs and starting to get them on the sides, I think this is from actual weight gain although I don't look much bigger. If i start to eat less calories than I have, (getting through family packs of crisps, icelollys and massive amounts of juice) and cut these out, do I have a chance at avoiding gaining anymore weight and avoiding more stretch marks?

I don't have a particularly good answer as I've personally not had to deal with stretch marks in the pregancy yet (but have some from puberty) but every woman is different and it might make a difference or it might not. Is there by particular reason you've been eating what you have? I know women often get cravings but I've had the opposite (food aversions) so I'm wondering if that could be a factor. But like I said, it might make a difference. It's always worth cutting it out to see if it does.
