Started noticing some lines on my belly and hips this week, im around 26 weeks. They look a bit reddish and im not sure if this is just normal or im doing something wrong. Did u all get them too?
Super common, a lot of it comes down to skin type and genes, not just creams. I oiled regularly which kept the skin soft, but some marks still showed and that is okay. They lighten over time, dont stress about them.
Consider them your tiger stripes earned through battle, ha. Mine showed up like roadmaps and I just embraced it. They fade and honestly nobody else is studying your tummy as much as you are.
Yes totally normal, I got them on my belly and thighs and felt a bit upset at first. But honestly now I see them as proof of carrying my baby. They faded a lot over the months too.
