Anyone get them worse the second time around? With my first, I only got some on the lower belly after delivery. I'm 18 weeks pregnant with #2 and already have a bunch forming throughout my stomach. I'm shocked and depressed.

Me!!!! I only got two the first time and they showed up after delivery. I got lots more during the third trimester with #2. He was way bigger
-
Yup! With my first I had a few under my belly after delivery but they faded pretty fast. The second time around I had/have a lot of angry stretch marks all over my belly starting around the 3rd trimester. I'm 9 months pp so they have faded somewhat but I can still see them
-
Yes. I've gotten faint light ones both times. But definitely more the second time even though I gained less weight and wasn't as big.
-
Way worse!
and I got them on my thighs the second time!

Ugh! You'd think we'd be in the clear after surviving our first pregnancy! I foolishly thought my skin would be more "flexible" the second time. Large bottle of Bio-Oil just ordered from Amazon just in case that helped last time!

@cmomma17: me too! The 1st time it was just my belly. The second time I got them on my upper thighs.
-
I have way more now. I didn't get stretch marks until my due date with #1, I was so upset. This time around I got them early, just adding to the collection I guess.

This thread is depressing!
-
I'm only 33 weeks but I have worse stretch marks than last time. I didn't get stretch marks until after my due date last time.
-
Oh no. This thread is scaring me. I didn't get any the first time, but I'm about 20 weeks and my stomach has been crazy itchy and I think I see one starting already :(. Most of my friends say they got stretch marks second time around too.

I didn't get any with LO1 (gained 50 lbs). With LO2 (gained ~55 lbs) I got some on my calves/behind my knee area and a couple on my hips :(. None on my belly but my legs were super swollen and I didn't moisturize them as religiously as my belly since I didn't think my legs would get stretch marks. It sucks but oh well~~
and I got them on my thighs the second time!
