Do stretch marks appear during or after pregnancy?
Im 5 months and so far my belly looks clear but i keep wondering when these marks usually show up. Want to start applying oil before its too late. Did urs come during the bump growing or only after delivery?
They mostly come as the belly expands, beta, last trimester is common. Dont stress about them, almost every mom has some. They fade over time, wear them proudly.
Mostly they come in the later months as the belly stretches, but some appear after delivery too when things change. I oiled my belly daily, helped with the itching at least. Genetics play a big role honestly.
I just delivered 2 months back. For me the marks showed up around month 8 and a few more right at the end. They look lighter already. Coconut oil massage felt nice even if it didnt fully prevent them.
Mine started showing in the last trimester, around 7th month when the bump grew fast. I felt a bit sad about them honestly but now I look at them like a memory. They faded a lot after delivery.
Honestly I didnt buy any fancy creams, just used regular oil and it was fine. They mostly appeared in the 8th-9th month for me. Expensive products dont guarantee anything, it's mostly your skin type.
