    i have one dark red stretchie on the hole where my belly button ring was that looks like a cross, but other than that i haven't got one mark, which surprises me cause my belly feels very stretched. i didn't think you could get them afterwards....nooooo, i hope not. i suppose your right though it's a reminder of carrying your bub if you do get any.

    I look like I've been mauled by a tiger. It's outrageous!! Mine showed up fairly early, but I found out it was because I was taking steroids for hyperemesis. I have stopped the steroids now and haven't gotten a single fresh mark since. I used all the lotions and potions and they didn't do anything, I think it's just the luck of the draw unfortunately!

    Not everyone gets them. I didnt get any stretch marks at all.
