stretch marks question

Do stretch marks show up while your pregnant, or can they appear after you give birth?

I'm trying to figure out if I'm safe as long as they don't show up while I'm pregnant. So far they haven't and even though I'm 25 weeks, I measure like a 35 week pregnant woman (twins).

Re: stretch marks question

With my DD i didn't get stretch marks till right before she was born. Once she dropped I got the stretch marks on the bottom of my belly.

Re: stretch marks question

they are really hard to see if you are really big.. sometimes you can see shiny parts to your skin in certain lights. after you deliver these will be stretch marks.. with my first i didn't get any until i was due..
Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones!!

Re: stretch marks question

I didn't get any until 37 weeks, and they just kept on coming. I find that oil is the best, none of the cocoa butter, creams worked for me.
