    • I got mine around 32 weeks. UGH. I was so depressed, but it's a small price to pay for making a life!

    • I would be less concerned with actually getting them and more concerned about whether or not they will leave a long lasting impression. Some fade really well (mine did) while others leave horrible marks forever. And there is not much you can do about them.

    • drink lots of water, take 2 tablespoons flax oil every day and use coco butter cream.

    • Hi, I used to have pretty bad stretch marks and red scars around my belly region ever since I gave birth to my three kids.I had tried Vitamin E oil and cocoa butter which a number of people had recommended but unfortunately it didn't seem to work too well. My Doctor had even suggested that I go for a Tummy Tuck. I then recently read an article about a lady who supposedly got rid of her stretch marks using a particular cream. I tried it and it worked really well. It took a number of weeks but my stretch marks soon faded away. You can read the lady's article at the link below. http://www.stretchmarkszapped.com

    • it's genetic, so there's really not much you can do about it. and they usually aren't apparent until after you give birth and your belly shrinks
