i am 8 months pregnant with my first child i do not have stretch marks on my stomach and i am hoping i will not get them on my stomach i am wondering, if i have not gotten stretch marks by now do i still have a chance of getting them or do most women get them earlier in their pregnancies if they are going to get them?

Yes,you still do have a chance of getting them.If you have a very fair complexion,you may not notice them,even if they are there(in many, stretch marks bcum dark only after delivery).Run your hand over your tummy,if you don't FEEL any marks,you can be assured that you haven't got them till now.So far,so good.
However,they may appear out of nowhere as soon as you deliver (mine was such a case).But,be assured,they fade away soon,though they may not vanish completely.
Apply olive oil regularly on your tummy to minimise the chances of getting these marks.Anti-stretch mark creams simply don't work.

My friend - also Indian - did not get any stretch marks on her stomach until the very last month of her pregnancy. When she had the baby, it got worse. I am sorry. It's the way in which your skin grows to accommodate a baby. I don't think there is anyone in this world without stretch marks. Then, I could be wrong.
The thing is they fade however, it does help if you are of a fairer skin as they tend not to show too much eventually.

in case you men did not use risk-free practices, there's a reliable danger you have got gotten pregnant, yet there is not any danger which you have got indicators already. Sperm take some days now and lower back to get to the egg, then the fertilized egg can take some days to implant. So, frequently some week later the fertilized egg will implant into the uterus. indicators could come 2-3 weeks after that, it somewhat is frequently when you have already ignored your era. Your abdomen button hurting has not something to do with being pregnant--I certainly have my abdomen button pierced and that is in basic terms now commencing to harm because of the fact that is stretching. Wait some weeks till you think of you're meant to be getting your era, which might in all probability be around the seventeenth of this month, and do a being pregnant try utilising your first morning urine. It includes a extra robust hormone concentration because of the fact your urine has been sitting all night long. reliable success!

Have somebody look under your belly. I didn't think I had any stretch marks because I couldn't see the underside but surprise, surprise when the baby came and my stomach deflated there they were! But use lots and lots of cocoa butter and hope for the best...there are some women who are just very lucky and never get them!
Congratulations and best wishes for a successful and easy birth!

I didn't have any stretch marks on my stomach until after my son was born, but he's now 7 months old and they're almost gone.

Well, a lot of women may not get them until the very end of the pregnancy, but that doesn't mean that you will. I didn't get any my first pregnancy and am hoping not to get any this time around! Good luck!

If you get any, they will probably be small and go away a few months afterwards. I had literally hundreds of stretch marks with my first one; on my stomach, breasts, hips, legs, and even my calves.

9 times out of ten, you'll see the stretch marks after you've delivered and your belly goes down.

You may not get them but sometimes you won't see them until after the baby is delivered and you'll notice it on the "extra skin."
I would suggest start or continue using the creams and after your baby is here put yourself on a mild exercise regimen ASAP.

Please stop worrying about marks, it is so mean. This is the time you should be very happy life. You are going to experience the best time of your life.
Your mood and your thinking would reflect on the character of the child. Instead of worrying on silly matters (like looks), you should start enjoying life in every possible way.
Listen to good music, talk only good things. Have fun all the time. Keep smiling all the time.
Your child should will have all the good characterstics depending on all the good qualities you posses.
Please take my comments positively. Trust me it is for your good....
