Stretch marks

[Sparklisam]

I got a few very very small and minor stretch marks with my first baby. Almost unnoticeable after I lost my baby’s weight. As expected I am showing quicker with this second baby.

Did anyone’s stretch marks get worse in the second pregnancy?

I’m doing the same as my last baby. Creaming etc when I can.

There might be less stretch marks with the second as the skin has already been stretched, but that depends also on how much you gain and if your skin will have to stretch more this time or not.

I think it's all a bit down to luck. I hardly put anything on my bump since I'm a very bad moisturizer and would forget it all the time, the smell of it made me gag so I quickly tossed it away. I had a tiny atretch mark, the size of an apple seed and that's it. A friend of mine moisterized daily and her belly was full of dark stretch marks, she did get quite big so I guess that does matter.x

I had minimal stretch marks in my first pregnancy, and so far in this pregnancy it's the same. I don't think creams make much of a difference, if you're going to get them you're going to get them no matter what. x
