Strech Marks and Extra Skin

[gummykandi 20]

I am not yet pregnant but my DH and I are going to start trying in March (18mo after my surgery just like my surgeon said). I was wondering did any of you have a lot of extra skin on your stomach and if so how did that impact your stretch marks and the baby bump as your pregnancy progressed? Did you show earlier? Did you even get stretch marks? How long before people could tell you were pregnant?

I am very prone to getting stretch marks so when I got pregnant yeah they're all over! lol. Also, I had quite a flap of skin hangin in the front and I thought when I got larger it would just fill out....didn't happen! Now I just have a big baby bump with a flap are fat and skin hangin from it...sounds gross I know. In clothes you wouldn't even know that it wasn't just my bump though. I started showing earlier, but this is my second baby (third pregnancy). I hope this helps. If you have anymore questions or anything I'm always around! :thumbup:
