Hard to know if I would've gotten them with a singleton though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161204 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:39:03 +0000 Alivoo01 2161204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't with my first, but have been curious about this also. Since you start showing earlier with subsequent pregnancies, wasn't sure if this would change the odds! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161203 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:37:47 +0000 ktdid23 2161203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None in either pregnancy. My kids are 4 years apart. I can't say it's genetics though, because my mom (4 kids, all 2 yrs apart) does have stretch marks. I'm wondering if perhaps I don't because of the length of time between my pregnancies? I gained 60 lbs with my first and 45 lbs with my second. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161202 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:36:52 +0000 Ree723 2161202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No stretch marks here for either pregnancy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161197 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:35:58 +0000 bushelandapeck 2161197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None for either pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161195 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 15:33:39 +0000 NovBaby1112 2161195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Curious so following! Didn't get any the first time and hoping for the same this time... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161034 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:42:13 +0000 Pumuckl 2161034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None in either pregnancy for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2161012 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:28:38 +0000 rattles 2161012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only got one or two at 39 weeks with my first. With my second, I got lots and I had them by the end of the second trimester. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2160976 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 13:05:26 +0000 mrsjyw 2160976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't get them in my first pregnancy, and I'm okay right now at nearly 28 weeks. But I know the biggest belly growth is still yet to come, so we'll see! FX! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/stretch-marks-in-2nd-pregnancy#post-2160963 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 12:57:41 +0000 Meowkers 2160963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just curious, if you didn't get stretch marks in your first pregnancy, does that mean you won't get them in your second pregnancy? I know that stretch marks depend on genetics so I'm guessing/hoping your skin handles subsequent pregnancies the same. </p>
