I'm Currently Feeling:  | Oh no I think the stretchies have finally got me!
I was looking at myself in the mirror a few days ago and looked at my hips and I could see faint red marks more at the back of me than the side of my hips, if you get what I mean? Anyway asked Tim and he thought they were marks from my jeans but I showed them to my mum today and she said "no they're faint stretchmarks, I had them in exactly the same place with you". If they don't get any worse then I think once they fade you won't see them but as I've still got potentially 4-6 weeks left I fear they're going to get worse!!!!! I knew I wouldn't escape them again, I was just too lucky last time!!!!!  x |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Oh no, it's gutting isn't it? I've been really lucky too, considering the size of my bumpy, and have only had some faint ones really. However over the past week or so they've become a bit pinker and more visible, but I'm hoping they won't get too much worse.......(reaches forthe Palmer's cream)
