Goodbye, Cute A$$ ;(

I dont know if this makes me vain or
pathetic or what but...
I am 35 weeks pregnant (yay!) and this
past week I have been noticing something
that makes me really sad :( my ass (which
my bf has always said was super cute) is
becoming covered by stretch marks! And I
dont mean those white practically
invisible ones (i already had several of
those from way back) I mean those dark red
ones! They are each about an inch long
and they are going in every direction and
they are .E.V.E.R.Y.W.H.E.R.E.
Basically, I can never wear a bathing suit
in public again! I dont get it...I am a
petite girl and I dont have a single one
on my tummy or anywhere else, just my
bottom :(

Bleh your lucky I would rather have my
stretch marks on my butt then my tummy...I
didn't get a single stretch mark till 35
weeks and then they spread like a nobodies
buisness.
they're so deep that you can feel them
through my shirt. Yucky! I know they'll
fade but i'll never have a nice tummy
again. I love my daughter and she was
.T.O.T.A.L.L.Y worth it, but it really
would have been nice to have her and not
have to ruin my body while I was at it.
Oh well. I'm learning to live with it.

Cocoa butter and vitamin e cream - even
better get a cocoa butter that has added
vitamin e.
You will be suprised at the difference it
makes to your stretch marks.
Stretch marks are caused when the skin
loses it elasticity or when the skin
expands faster than it can grow.
Also if you can get bio-oil where you are
it is absolutely amazing stuff.

Avon makes a lotion that will help with
stretch marks like that. I sell avon and
it realllly does work. It's called super
shape from avon solutions. It should
make a difference in only 2 weeks. It's
about 20 dollars a tube, but the
statistic's say that 76% of women notice a
difference in 2 weeks, and 93% see a
difference with continual use. It's a
lot cheaper than that stuff you find in
the stores, and this will work too. You
can probably get it on ebay.

honey, join the stretched out club!!
Haha!! I know exactly what you mean!!!
Being that I do skin for a living, I can
assure you that they'll fade just as your
other one did. It might take a while
being that these came sooo quickly, but
trust, they'll 'poof be gone!'
you should feel lucky, I was very very
petite and got them everywhere...I did
gain 60+ pounds though. My belly's gonna
be like a deflated balloon after birth!!
Grrr....Talk about a blow to the ego
huh?!?! And they spread like friggen wild
fire!!!!!

I used cocoa butter throughout both my
pregnancies, I got pretty lucky with my
first, but with bray I got a few. It
doesn't bother me though I mean hell I got
2 beautiful kids out of the deal =)

Well the whole cocoa butter thing...I
dunno bout it. Ive had it and used it
once a day and I really dont know if it
does anything. Ive heard that basically
its all up to your genetics and that no
cream can save you in that case. Then
again maybe applying it once a day isnt
enough. Who knows!
How come all those celebrity moms look
perfect w/no stretch marks after kids?

exercising doesn't hide stretch marks
though, celebs have a lot of monkey so in
my opinion they probably get some good
stretch mark cream!!!!!

It doesn't hide stretch marks but it keeps
the saggyness away! : ) I wasn't thinking
about stretch marks when I said that
though,my mind wanders sometimes. . .

hahahah....At the 1st ultrasound at about
22 or 24 weeks he said it was a boy. I
didn't believe him, so I paid for another
'gender determination.' at 27/28 weeks and
he said it was a girl. Soooo, it's about
50/50 right now.
He was sooo positive about both sexes.
But more positive about the girl. I have
another ultrasound on .Wednesday so i'll
find out .F.O.R .S.U.R.E then. I hope
it's a girl cuz we painter her room pink
and put sparkles on the ceiling!!!
Everyone I meet insists that i'm carrying
a boy, but I beg to differ!!
Lol...Literally.....Beg.

Sarah, I bet your gonna have a girl. It's
more common to mistake a girl for a boy
because of the umbilical cord, and I
believe sometimes their little "package"
hasn't dropped yet (that's what i've
heard, I could be wrong tho)
my cousin was told she was having a boy,
and she had a girl. And I haven't heard
of anyone expecting a girl and have it
come out as a boy. Not that it isn't
possible, but less likely! Good luck!
