Stretch marks after childbirth? [stretch marks] [breasts]
Is it possible to get stretch marks on your stomach after you deliver. I got them on my breasts and on my side but nothing on my stomach (thank God) and I am 36 weeks and 4 days. My uncle told me last night “just wait until after you deliver.” So if one of you girls who have had babies after getting stretch marks when you get in any?
Reply:i two that i have came after delivery.. my mom explained like when you deflate a balloon that has been stretched out all the way.. it's not smooth anymore.
Reply:36 weeks, you still have time to get them! Last time, I didn't have a single stretch mark on my body until the week before I gave birth! How depressing is that!!!!!??? Ladyofthelake is right about losing the weight too fast, that happens too.
I know i still have time to get them, I am just hoping that I don't. I actually am surprised that i got them everywhere else so far except for my stomach.

Reply:I got mine all before delievery, but I've heard many women getting them after giving birth. Some of them had them but they were big and didn't notice them until their stomachs went down. Others got them from losing the pregnancy weight too fast since losing weight or gaining it too fast can result in them. But from the stories I heard those who did get them afterwards didn't have them bad and most of the time they weren't that noticable.
