Nope (27 weeks tomorrow) Never got one while pregnant with LO1 so I will be surprised if I get one this time!

I'm 31 weeks and don't have one. I didn't get one last time either. I'm pretty fair skinned though and I think it is more common with darker skin.

I have one and I'm 7 weeks post partum. I can't remember when I got it...

I'm fair skinned, my doc asked if I tan easily and I said no, that I'm pretty much always pale and he said that it is usually darker skin / people who tan well... weird that I have it. I hope it goes away!

Nope, never got one through both pregnancies. I'm fair and naturally blonde, so it's not surprising.

I definitely got one around 25+ weeks with DD, and it lasted for a while post partum. I can still faintly see where it was and I'm positive it will come back again with this pregnancy. I have olive skin so I guess its common.

@Boogs: same here! 7 months pp starting to wonder if it will ever go away.... I don't remember when it arrived.

I had a very light one last time, but I can't remember when it appeared. I'm 26 weeks now and it hasn't shown up yet.

I did with E. 39 weeks with T and NADA

I'm 25 weeks tomorrow and don't have one yet. I'm really pale skinned, and I can see a long vein in the area that one would appear, but it's more the blue-green vein color, not tan or brown.

I never did with either pregnancy

I didn't with #1 and so far, still don't have one at 34 weeks with #2.

Yep and 4.5 months pp it is just now getting lighter
@Happygal: Yes mine did too, I think because your skin is stretched out it looks lighter

I got one with my first and while it hadnt completely faded once I got pregnant with LO2 it never got darker and continued to fade during my entire second pregnancy

I have a very very faint one. 25w now, can't remember when it showed up but its been here for a couple months prob. Hasn't gotten darker. And it only goes up to my belly button.

I just noticed a faint line this morning! I never saw it while I was actually pregnant, but maybe now that the skin isn't so stretched it's clearer.

I never got one with my first pregnancy, and I'm 34 weeks with my second, and I still don't have one.

I got one with my first but not with my second.

I had one with my first, I think around 32 weeks. I'm 38 weeks tomorrow and nothing. The stretch marks have more than made up for its absence....sigh....

I'm 31 weeks and I have one but it's not dark. But it's definitely there. I am very light complected too.

I did. And I just realized it's faded finally. Yay!!
