My baby boy is two weeks old today! Throughout my pregnancy I got hardly any stretch marks, a few here and there EXCEPT for my boobs! I have some there and I've read and heard that they normally lighten incredibly or fade completely and now I AM SO READY for that! How long does this take on average??

I was in the same boat i have 2 very small stretch marks on my belly, very random...and they are about a half an inch big. And a few on my boobs. But they are just starting to fade now and my daughter is 4.5 months.

mine are barely fading but starting to and my lo is 3 months old. i guess it can take awhile. have you guys lost the dark brown line that goes through the belly yet? mine is still there and still dark!

as much as i LOVED being pregnant i wish i was like you sugar!! mine are still there :( my lo is just over 2 months old. i broke down and got a tanning bed membership to see if it would help. i KNOW people say it will just make them worse but its not true for me! they seem to be fading - or i'm getting darker!! ;)

Hey I wish I was liek you with only a few :) My are terrible! I'm covered in them. Does anyone knows if Stri Vectin works? I have heard so much about it but the reviews I have read are not so promising.

Well girls my dd is 13 months next Mon.and I still have some of my stretch marks.I got them EVERYWHERE except,for my belly,which is strange.I still have the ones on my butt,although they have lightened.The ones on my boobs are finally gone.I even got them on my calves,and I am not a big person,although I did gain 39 pounds.I have lost all the weight,plus a little more,so naturally I wanted the stretch marks to leave too lol.Patience though it will take several months.Has your hair started falling out yet?
