This has really been getting me down.
I hate them so much. People keep telling me they will fade, but how long, I mean it feels like it is going to be years...
SO how long did it take yours to fade and where were they?
Mine are on my lower belly, a few on my hips and also on my upper outer thighs :(
Its almost a year now and you can still see mine but very faintly. I think they did most of their fading in the first 3-4 months. I used bio-oil and that seemed to help.
Mine have faded quite a lot, they are just very light on my tummy now (that's 5 months on).
Hang in there x
ughhh, the dreaded stretchies!!:rolleyes:
mine are now starting to fade, 6 months on, i have some seriously bad ones on my sides tho, about 1-1 1/2 cms wide in some places.
my belly is now a network of tiny stretched marks and saggy like elephant skin....
but I just look at them as my battle scars, I came out alive, and look what I have to show for it!
xx
ps bio oil is great!
pps...I have them, under my arms, boobs, around belly button, on sides of belly, outer thighs, inner thighs, my ankles (ffs!!) my calves....im just one big stretch mark!! (I had very bad fluid retention in the last few weeks of pregnancy...)
it took 2 and a half years for mine to fade
its been a yr and mine havnt seemed to have faded much. but mine are really thick about 1.5cm wide and raised a fair bit so i think it will take a while.
i am hopeless as remembering to put bio oil on them.
mine r on my lower belly, hips and thighs
