I am 35 weeks and no signs of stretch marks on my tummy yet...Any chance I'll have it after birth? Anyone been in my situation and did/did not have stretch marks?

Sorry sweetie, they come AFTER your baby. Your body shrinks and the stretch marks are from being expanded so long.
Try this...
Blow up a balloon nice and big...and tie it off till tomorrow, then carefully prick a hole in it and see what it looks like when the air is out.

My stretch marks appeared around 30 weeks but it's all down to genetics and your weight gain. Your weight gain generally settles down after 36 weeks though the baby is growing at a fast rate. I don't think you will get any stretch marks from here on in but if you do they will be minor. And hey, what marks you didn't have in pregnancy you won't have after the birth! You go girl....i was cursed with them!!! LOL

sure, there continues to be of challenge you're able to get stretch marks. stretch mark creams won't be able to completely do away with stretch marks, in basic terms shrink how substantive they are. a stretchmark is a kind of scar below the exterior and whilst your dermis is stretched in a undeniable way the exterior would go through harm. whilst figuring out to purchase stretch mark creams, make certain you pay interest to the ingredients first!!! make certain you have become ingredients that stimulate collagen production in the exterior!

Stretch marks usually show up after pregnancy or when growth has stopped. I've never been pregnant but a lot of women have said using skin lotion daily helps the skin shrink back down.

It is really hard to say -- this is a very personal thing. But if you don't gain a lot more weight, you might get away with no stretch marks!

I suppose it's possible - you may still get quite a bit bigger - but it would seem to me that you would at least have some indication of stretch marks by your 35th week. If you don't, count your blessings, and keep on doing whatever it is you're doing!

With my first baby I was so excited, thirty-seven or eight weeks and no Stretch marks! Then the thirty-ninth week came to pass. Ah there they are. I hope you are luckier than I!

Usually, we emulate our mothers during pregnancy. Did your mom get stretch marks? My mother didn't in her 3 pregnancies and I didn't in my first 2 pregnancies and I haven't gotten any in my current pregnancy.

There is always a chance that you'll get stretchmarks. But if you don't thank god and email me your secret. it really just depends on your skin.
