Stretch marks - how many weeks were u when u noticed your first

[nomorebooze]

Hi peeps again how far were u all before u noticed your first stretch marks? im 30 weeks and havent noticed one yet, did you feel tearing before seeing your 1st stretch mark????

None with first baby, second much bigger, noticed a few small ones at 39 weeks, didn't hurt at all and can't see them anymore, but am only 30 weeks so far this time.

39 weeks. I could have wept.

Didn't feel any tearing.

37 weeks. Was talking about how I didn't have any and then looked under my bump...

39weeks and 4 days - I gave birth 5 days later. It was mortifying!

About 2 days before DS was born. Gutting.

Oh bollocks, I have been feeling smug about the fact that I don't have any for this second pregnancy either (39 weeks tomorrow). Not feeling quite so smug now reading all this.

I had heard somewhere that some slebs have elective cesareans a few weeks early to avoid stretch marks because they tend to come quite late on. I thought I had got away with it though!!!

None on either of mine ds1 was 2 1/2 weeks overdue too!

Another late one - got some under my bump when I was overdue at 40+ weeks. So unfair! Didn't feel tearing but skin on bump was very itchy in the last couple of weeks.

snap - 39 weeks, was 2.5 weeks overdue and watched them grow every day.
Not that big though - about 4 or 5 of 3-4cm on my wobbly spare tyre, which will never be seen in a bikini again!

I noticed mine quite late as well I also realized I had not been looking under my belly button due to size of the bump, but there were a lot of them down there I just hadn't looked in the right place. Now they're above and below (39 weeks tomorrow). . .
