I've avoided them too...

Keep using the cocoabutter though clairebear, it might help minimize the scarring after LO arrives

They got me too. I noticed my first around 19 weeks on my boobs and now they've got lots!! I use cocoa butter and bio oil every day. Don't have any on my belly yet but I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who's got them fairly early on.

No cream in the world will help, if you are going to get them you are going to get them, sorry, but a small price to pay for a baby! x

I was gonna say, I read somewhere if youre gonna get them, then theres not a lot you can do about it, but you can stop them from being so bad and help fade them.

My OH seemed really bothered by them to start with too but now he realised how bothered I am he doesn't say much. He just said it's the price you pay for bigger boobs.

I dont have any really, I have a small one starting I think on my right side by my hip bone but its like a quarter of an inch long and thats all I have. Im surprised that you are getting them so early! I didnt think they really came on until later.
