I was all proud of not having any stretch marks...but it just turned out that we don't own a full-length mirror. I looked in the mirror today at H&M while trying on bikinis and oh no! I have them around the bottom of my hip and butt!

Mine came very late in the game, after 30 weeks. But once they started they came on strong and fast, by 40 weeks they were on my belly, tush, thighs, boobs, etc. 10 months post partum and they're finally starting to fade.

Mine started at 38 weeks--and they're right across the middle-no hiding these suckers for a while!

I thought I was in the clear....then I saw my under belly stretch marks!

Mine started around 30 weeks... I thought I was in the clear, too, but they were under my belly! Now they're spread to my belly button (like petals on an ugly red flower).

OH no I don't have any yet, but I keep looking every time I get out of the shower.

My stretch marks showed up at 37 weeks pretty bad. And now that baby is out, I see they are worse than I thought. My milk came in this morning...along with purple stretch marks across my entire boob.
I have just had to accept it, its part of the process. They are battle scars and DO NOT RUIN OUR BODIES!

I didn't see mine until I got home from the hospital. I thought I didn't have any at all, but they must've been hiding underneath where I couldn't see!

@Mrsdaredevil: Oh boy. I guess in a couple weeks I really get to see how bad mine are.
