I'm expecting her to be smaller or the same as my son based on my gain but will report back if she does happen to be big :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285593 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 11:33:09 +0000 autumnlove 2285593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, they were smaller! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285573 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 11:16:21 +0000 Corduroy 2285573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got more stretch marks with #2. Lo2 was half a pound bigger but I think it was more due to LO2 being in a different position than LO1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285558 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 11:05:28 +0000 Mamasig 2285558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got more the second time around and my baby was 3.5 pounds smaller and I gained 10 pounds less. And the second time I got them on my upper thighs when I never did before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285522 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 10:31:35 +0000 regberadaisy 2285522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't get stretch marks the second time and she was a bigger baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285519 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 10:28:43 +0000 sarac 2285519@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first (6 pounds 12 ounces), I gained 12 pounds, carried very 'in', and got one big red stretch mark. I already had some from gaining a bunch of weight after high school, and those got a bit longer, but not red. With my second (7 pounds 2 ounces), I gained 27 pounds, carried way more out, and got a few small new marks above my belly button. The ones I already had also got longer. But my weight gained seemed to not have anything to do with it - I got some each time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285502 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 10:00:16 +0000 yellowbird 2285502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got more and my baby was almost 2 lbs bigger </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285489 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 09:52:03 +0000 blackbird 2285489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some at the top of my belly extended maybe half an inch. I mean, barely. But they are new. And yes, T was a good 2 inches longer and 1/2 lb heavier. I gained less the second time, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285445 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 09:13:03 +0000 Adira 2285445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gained the same weight for both babies and they were similar in birth weight too, but I started off at a higher pre-pregnancy weight for number 2, so I think that may be why I gained more stretch marks during my second pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285444 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 09:10:35 +0000 yin 2285444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a few additional stretch marks with my second. I'm petite and only gained 15 lbs or so. Both of my kids weighed about the same (only 3 oz difference). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-got-new-stretch-marks-with-your-second-or-3rd-or-4th#post-2285440 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 09:07:59 +0000 Somebunny 2285440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Was your baby bigger?</p> <p>I got a ton of stretch marks the first time from my belly button down. I thought I would be safe from getting more this time because I weigh 30lbs less than I did the first time. I gained so much weight with my first pregnancy. It turns out I'm getting a lot of new ones above my belly button. I'm wondering if this baby is going to be a lot bigger... </p>
