I woke up one day with them... I’m 28 and I not that big but yep I really don’t like them 😪
Offically post partum 2 months and my boobs are not longer what they used to be.. but they ARE longer. Welcome saggy twins with the matching purple stripes! So fun. These nursing bras ain’t helping either...
8 months
I didn’t get any through out my whole pregnancy but they showed up after I delivered and started shedding baby weight 🤷♀️
My first time around I only got two little strips but it wasn’t until the end, my daughter was small and I never got crazy big, second time around got a lot more around 3rd trimester
Around probably 32 weeks ? I thought I was gonna get lucky. Cause my mom and grandma got them baaad so I have the genetics for it. But then I got them all in the end and there is 0 hope in getting rid of them.

I have one on my side I for around the 8th ish month point, but I user skin so soft like it was going out of style and have good skin.
I got one at about 20 weeks, and then they quadrupled by 34 weeks!
I didn't get any stretch marks but I used coconut oil and it's amazing !!
I didn’t get mine until the last trimester. I’d say about 35 weeks. It took some time but I’ve learned to love mine.
Never.
8 weeks and I’m 13 and they’re growing
12 weeks with twins
None on my belly just a bunch on my boobs 😭
I haven't gotten a single stretch mark, I was prepared but I am being induced in less than 2 weeks and I am thankfully still in the clear

12 weeks and a day (dec the 19th) and I still don’t have stretch marks,... first pregnancy
30 weeks
10 weeks
I only got them after delivery. My third child turns 2 in a month and it’s only within this past month that I have truly been able to accept & admire my “tiger stripes”. Our bodies are amazing and creating, holding and birthing life- it’s our minds that take the most work postpartum.
I got mine a couple days before I had my son.
First some 7-8 months. Second already had them.
The last month of pregnancy for me! Saw one line at the bottom of my belly and then they went crazy. The second pregnancy was just as bad but I was also WAY bigger with my second baby.
Just on my boobs at around 20 weeks and just grew more purple
I only got mine all over my breasts and thighs. None on my belly!
I did not get mine until after I gave birth to my son.
I guess I’m not a tiger 😩😩😩 I didn’t get any
I want to say around 4m I don't really remember exactly
I got all my mine before 20 weeks (I wasn’t even showing) with my first baby. My body wasn’t circulating water to my lower half very well so it caused a LOT of stretch marks. :( With my second pregnancy I didn’t get any and I was way bigger.

I didn't get any at all and my son will be 4 in January. However, my sister's got theirs weeks after giving birth.
Around 6 months in.
Not until like 36-38 weeks! I almost escaped them!

I didn’t get mine until the last 3 weeks.
Around 6-7 months. First they looked like maybe 3 lines, but within a month they stretched to over 50.
I didn’t get any until the last 2 weeks 🙃
Literally they showed up a week before my due date.
Between 5-7....
Not until I the week I was due!! My daughter was born at 41weeks and a day & that last week did me in! 😭
I didn’t get any!! As soon as I peed on the stick and it said yes I started applying moisturizers but I found a lot of them didn’t penetrate the layers and I was still itchy. So I made my own. I’m an herbalist so blended up some infused oils I made and mixed it with natural butters and made a great baby belly butter. I give it to all my friends and I sell it.
At 34 weeks they started to emerge 😫
I got mine with my first around 37 weeks! I even moisturized and drank lots of water 😢

Yeah, i came to that conclusion! Literally nothing i could’ve done
Same. It’s genetic, so if you get them there really wasn’t anything you could do to prevent
My first one, I started getting them at 6 months pregnant. My second, some more showed up around 7 months.
I gained a few with my first child in the last two weeks of my pregnancy, nothing serious. It was my third child that connected the few stretch marks I had on my lower belly.
About 7 1/2 months. I was really small and lathered bio oil every day. Didn't help. I also had an 8lb 3oz baby and was literally all belly! 🤣
Like 27 weeks Then I got some after below belly button because my LO never dropped so when my gut did once she was out I got a bunch of bad ones. Was so surprised
Almost the end.. like 7.5 months
I didn't get any new ones from my pregnancy, I already had some. On a side note, anyone up for a gym buddy?

I didn't get any on my belly with either of my pregnancies - I lathered up cocoa butter lotion every single day on my body. I did get a few on my boobs with my first! Haha
I'm 31 weeks and I'm not seeing any but I've put on bio oil twice a day since 12 weeks.

I did that my first pregnancy but was told by my doctor that it didn’t matter and that stretch marks are genetic. I didn’t believe her until my second pregnancy...😩
I've heard that too...my mom don't really have any been my sister and I either... like 1 or 2 literally.
My last month!
I thought for sure I would get them since my mother did and I am on the thinner side. I am very fit and ate normal portions throughout my first 2 pregnancies. Also, used Palmer's skin therapy oil twice a day. 1st baby came at 38 weeks (6lbs 7oz) and 2nd baby came at 41 weeks and 2 days (8lbs). Could not believe I didn't get any strech marks on my stomach. I did have "smaller" bellies than some women due to working out. Did get a few faint ones on my boobs. On pregnancy #3 now and trying to maintain same routine. Will see what happens.
I had a 9 lb 7 oz baby, and they popped up above and below my belly button in the last couple weeks of pregnancy! He also came about a week late 😬
Yeah I thought the same lol I just gave up 😂
