The new ones on my stomach came at about 30+ weeks, and extended down into my pubic line. 3 years later they are faded silver. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2077243 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 15:43:03 +0000 MamaBehr 2077243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh man. I got out of puberty with nothing! Not a thing! Gained weight in college, got nothing! Got pregnant with my first, hand loose skin (I don't want to say stretch marks persay). Got pregnant with my second, had some stretch marks where I had loose skin before. Got pregnant with my third, and MAN! My stomach, a year later, is a hot mess! Its like a weird circle where my skin stretched the most and it is stretch marks and loose skin city. The rest of my toros/hips/boobs are fine, but anything in that circle is a hot mess. It just took two nine pounders and one almost 8 pounder.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2077192 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 15:11:57 +0000 MrsBrewer 2077192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have old stretch marks on my hips that have been faded for awhile, and I'm gaining a TON of new ones on my belly in pregnancy. I lotion everyday, but I think I just have horrible genes, and I will get stretch marks no matter what. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2077187 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 15:08:30 +0000 blackbird 2077187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious how this works, too; i have some from week 32/33 of pregnancy and they so far aren't doing anything! But i have some on my chest, thighs, and hips from my teen years. Honestly they're mostly invisible, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2077072 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 14:36:20 +0000 Radish 2077072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My old ones got itchy, but didn't get that dark purplish tint. The new ones are higher up than my old ones and are very dark. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2077055 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 14:32:57 +0000 twodoghouse 2077055@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had stretch marks on my innner thighs from my post-college days. They got deeper and darker colored during pregnancy. The (new, pregnancy) stretchmarks on my stomach are completely gone at 9 months post-partum, but I still have the thighs ones. I think I might always have them? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2076868 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 13:39:25 +0000 sarac 2076868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the same thing, and I got more when I was pregnant the first time. That's with only gaining 12 pounds, so I think I'm just prone to them. The old ones didn't look any worse, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/old-stretch-marks#post-2076853 Thu, 19 Feb 2015 13:33:23 +0000 macintosh 2076853@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious if anyone has had old stretch marks that re-stretched during pregnancy.</p> <p>I have old stretch marks on my stomach from gaining weight in my 20s and lately my stomach had been itchy right where those old marks are. I'm 29 weeks and I haven't gotten any new marks yet. </p>
