Im in my 5th month and skin still looks okay for now. But im kind of waiting and wondering when these marks usually start showing up. Did urs come early or only in last few months?
Hey! Don't stress too much about them, they're super common! Usually, they start appearing in the late second or early third trimester when the belly really grows the fastest. Just keep moisturising, that's the best you can do!
Mine started showing up around 30-32 weeks, when my belly really popped out. Honestly, just moisturise consistently, morning and night, with whatever cream or oil you prefer. No magic bullet, but it helps with skin elasticity and itching.
Ugh, mine started appearing around week 30, and now at 36 weeks, my belly looks like a tiger decided to draw stripes on it, haha! It's just part of the package, I guess. Embrace the stripes, mama!
Oh, I'm 28 weeks now and just started seeing some faint lines near my belly button! I'm using bio-oil religiously everyday, hoping they don't get too dark or spread too much. Anyone else seeing them around this time?
Har cheez uparwale ki marzi se hoti hai, aur stretch marks are just a part of this beautiful journey, beta. Stay positive, keep your skin moisturised with good intentions, and accept your body's changes gracefully. Your baby is worth it.
