I'm Currently Feeling: | Blahhh stretch marks have invaded!! I woke up this morning with like 8 stretch marks!!!!!!!!Arrgggg!! 
I had two very very light ones a few days ago, now they're everywhere!! I am prone to them, my mom had tons...but I've been trying to ward them off with a daily routine of coco butter and Bio Oil and even baby oil. Nothing worked
I've never had a stretch mark in my LIFE!!! Will sun make them better or worse? haha. |

| oh man!! bloody things!!
I would keep using the bio oil as that can help reduce them but apparently some people say that if you are going to get them you are going to get them..I have found a couple on my sides but nothing on the front at the moment but just look at them like they are our war wounds hun!!  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I've got a few around my belly button and i HATE them!!! They look so ugly and i dont feel attractive at all! My OH wanted me to lift my top the other night so that he could see my belly. He was trying to lift my top but i snapped at him and slapped his hand away.  Bless him, he looked like a scalded puppy!!  |

I'm good! I haven't been getting many stretching cramps, or if I have, I'm too used to them to notice at this point!!
I don't have any on my sides or hips or anything, they look like they're creeping up under/around my belly button. I haven't gained an ounce of weight on the rest of my body. If anything, it has come off my legs/hips/butt everywhere else and just went to my bump. Redistrubted I guess. That may very well change at my appointment next week though!!! I'm expecting a big jump cause I didn't gain any between my last two appointments, not even a lb. |
