I think those are stretch marks actually. They come in horizontal or vertical forms. The horizontal ones from gravity pulling down on your belly. That’s what those red marks look like to me tbh.

@Discovereads I have lots of the little red marks around them they're just less obvious on photos and they've only appeared in last few hours, I have stretch marks on my sides and thighs from before pregnancy and they didn't look like this

Yes looks like stretch marks to me too. They tend to fade in colour later like stretch marks elsewhere on the body.

Ps I know someone who’s stretch marks only appeared during labour, gutting

Ok, well if you are concerned you can always call your GP tomorrow and send the photos to them?

Are they itchy?

gille987 · 25/06/2022 22:38

@ShirleyPhallus not itchy no, I didn't notice they were there until I was changing x
