It all depends on how you take care of the stretch mark. Honestly, I have some stretch marks. But when they were new i treated them with mederma and onion juice. Took vitamins daily, rubbed olive oil on them twice a day, took vitamin E, used aloe vera and a derma roller. I wrapped them with saran wrap at night to keep the moisture content high and drank 8-10 full glasses of water a day. After a year they turned back to skin color and I couldn't tell the difference exept for the depth of the marks. I used a tca 45% chemical peel to shallow the marks depth and am currently in the process of treating the peel burns with dermactin ts stretch mark complex plus the above ingredients. If you have white stretch marks what happened is you created a scar tissue that cant be removed unless you use a phenol peel. A phenol peel is the strongest chemical peel money can buy and it's very dangerous. Anyways, If I were you and my marks have turned white I would use a light tca chemical peel like 20% and test it on an area where you can't notice the mark too well. Then go as far as a 60-70% peel to go midway into the dermis and burn the scar tissue away, do once every 6 weeks. Then use mederma, and onion juice on your scar 2-3 times a day and the above routine i explained. Wrap the area at night with saran wrap, figure it out. Do this for like 2-6 months and i bet your skin turns back to a normal color and is extremely even. Also us a derma roller to thicken the epidermis and break up the scar tissue after you have healed the area once a month. Then go tanning when your sure the area is a healed as it's going to get. Believe it or not after 2-3 years of tanning the scar tissue you do have will tan to exactly the same color as your skin. The melanin in your skin will permanently darken in your stretch marks, like your *** is always whiter then your arms. Even when you dont go into the sun for years. Dont tan, or tan its upto you. Im going to wait to see how a small area response to the tanning. Also a fraxel lazer will help stretch marks even after years of having them, along with trilastin sr. Avoid the sun, dont tan while treating and drink lots of water and wrap.

The marks are part of you and they do blend in eventually and of course you will be bigger you have just had a baby .. having a baby changes you in every way and you are bound to be down as your body has been through the mill i am proud of mine and everytime i see them i know i got them for a good reason .. take it easy on thinking about men for a while and concentrate on your new life with your baby an pamper yourself men can come and go and babies stay forever xx

My wife has none but if she did have i'd still love her. Don't worry about being bigger, it's normal just start some gentle exercises when you can to help burn it off and you'll be back to normal in no time. Don't worry about what men think as the most important thing about a woman is her personality as the personality lasts forever and the looks disappear with age.
Oh forgot to add that the strechmarks will fade in time and you'll hardly be able to notice them, take care and enjoy your baby while he/she is still little as they grow so quickly.

I've got tons of stretch marks but I'm married to my kids dad so he has seen me before and after I can imagine why your worried cause i would be mortified if another man saw my body but that said if you get to know someone first then hopefully they will like you enough not to be deterred,if they don't it's their loss not your who wants someone who only wants you for your body.don't just concentrate on your stretch marks think about your good points got long legs or good boobs they are assets!try not to stress about the baby weight either i got really depressed after both mine cause i went up a dress size each time but exactly a year after the last one the weight just started to drop off naturally and I'm back to pre-pregnancy size but that's probably cause of all the running around after the kids i do.the only difference having stretch marks made to me is i can't show my mid-drift any more but what the hell my kids were worth it

If a man is worried about what size you are and how many stretch marks you have, then he isn't the man for you.
Show any potential suitors your stretch marks at an early opportunity and the ones that will be put off will soon disappear.
Remember that whoever you choose, you are choosing for your baby, too.
Good luck and I hope you succeed.

I have a few stretch marks, they don't bother me.
They may bother young lads but a real man is more realistic about nature.
There are many people that haven't had children with stretch marks due to sudden weight gain/loss, so don 't worry.

Not generally, most men are understanding, they have to be considering the state of some male bodies around otherwise it's the kettle calling the pot black.

no not at all trust me and your baby is only little still, you need to give yourself chance to get back to your pre pregnancy weight......it took me 3 yrs after my son but i got there in the end.Stretch marks do fade in time although you can help them by getting some bio-oil or something like that to rub in .Try not to worry to much hun
