Unreasonable stretchmark rant!!!

[Saraj09876]

Why does it feel like all my friends who are already stunningly good looking are the ones getting away with no stretchmarks?!
Only 27 weeks already ripping apart :(
All everyone keeps asking me is if I am using different creams, Iv been using palmers every morning and bio oil every night but they are coming whether I like it or not!

Apparently it's genetic and there's not much you can do about them, unfortunately!

I can see some popping up on my stomach as we speak.

I didn't get any stretch marks until about the last week of pregnancy. Then I got the full "tiger stripes" across my stomach. I really think it's mostly down to your genes and there's nothing we can do to prevent it. They will fade eventually, cream or no cream. I already had stretch marks on my hips, thighs, breasts and back of my legs from growing during puberty. All of mine have faded to a silvery white colour now, including pregnancy ones. I don't like them, but they're not very noticeable.

It’s not fair you’re completely right! But like @Bezalelle said, I believe it’s genetic.
I’m already covered in them from puberty and gaining and losing weight over the years. So unsurprisingly I’m almost 30 weeks and I’m covered in them.

It’s frustrating yes especially when it seems others get away with nothing. But I just have to remind myself that it doesn’t matter, they’ll fade in time and they’re just stretch marks, it’s really not the end of the world!
