I am almost 20 weeks and dont have any yet. i was just wondering if other people have them and if they do when did you start. I have justed started using Palmas coco butter as I got a free sample. I haven't used anything up unti now tho.
 
I haven't got any yet and I'm 27+4.. And all bump too.
Been using bio oil once a day since about 14 weeks


 
I don't think mine count as i had them before i got pregnant... :D
 
everyones different, some get them and some dont, with my first i got them and get them bad, but my sister and sil havent got any. as to when again its the same everyone is different, it all depends on your skin, some is good and very stretchy and some isnt. hope this help you x
 
Apparently it's genetics that decide if you get them ... I only
Started getting them last week I've been using bio oil and
Palmers since the beginning


Please excuse any typos from my fat fingers!
Tapatalk madness!
 
I only got them recently- got a couple on my boobs and a couple on my hips but nothing major. I moisturise but tbh I don't think it makes a huge amount if difference -if your gonna get them you'll get them! :-)

Same here lol

Although by about 15 weeks I had developed some new ones on the underside of my boobs... Lovely place to get them!
My boob growth went all mental early on and now they're looking small and out of proportion compared to the bump... Need some evening out I think!
I've been using palmers cocoa butter formula since about 18 weeks on boobs and bump and no more since but more than likely a coinkydink.

I just noticed last night I have started getting them around the love handles area. I hope they don't get too much worse. x
 
I only got mine from about 30weeks... Iv been moisturising loads, doesn't seem to make a difference.
 
I think your supposed to drink loads and keep hydrated as this helps skin's stretchyness!!! xxx
 
I had stretch marks pre-pregnancy, so expected to get more.. Got new ones from around 20 weeks x
 
I've heard its down to your skins natural elasticity so unfortunately if you're going to get them you will :( Oh well x
 
I got them in the last month, managed to avoid them apart from on my bum and i had used bio oil everyday from the start of my pregnancy x
 
Last pregnancy I didn't get any until after the birth, then I got a few low down which have faded now :) I used mother care love your body stretch mark oil, need to get myself some this time around too :)
 
I asked my mum n she didn't get any with me or my brother so hopefully I will follow in her footsteps I have with morning sickness.and didn't have any at all yet. And I'm 5 months today Wahoo :-)
 
Im 28+3, and havent got any yet, I use cocoa butter and various other creams about twice a day, and if I use my doppler I put a bit on for lubrication! I thought I wouldve had some by now, but not holding my breath as they could come yet...and I have read some people also get them after they have given birth, dunno why that is though. Have heard that creams, lotions, oils don't stop them but can help with itching and dry skin.
