Thanks for sharing all your 'war' stories, girls, makes me feel better! I get a bit annoyed when this topic comes up and someone posts saying "I used such-and-such product" and didn't get any stretchmarks...they should instead be saying "I am just so lucky that I am not one of the 80% of women that get stretchmarks".

Well, I am 14 and bit weeks in, and I'm bracing myself for inevitable stretchmarks. It is really interesting to hear how early they can come, I always thought they'd sneak up on you after 30w but now I can be prepared for them to be earlier.
