1.Does anyone have any stretch marks on their stomach??? I have them everywhere. Arms, legs, stomach, hips, breasts....
2.If u do,do u have alot?? Yes. They're all in different stages too so some are newer and darker, some have been there for years and are faded.
3.What ALL do u use on them??? Nothing. I suck it up and deal. I'm not getting in a bikini anyway and I've had them for as long as I can remember... puberty weight gain was mean to me. They don't bother me much.
4.Does it make them go away??
5.Does it make them lighter??
6.How long have u been using the stuff for??
7.What All does your partner say about them?? He doesn't care. He knows they're there and has never said anything about him. He asked me once what they were, I told him, and that was that.
8.Has he refused to do stuff with u like have sex with u when he has
seen them?? We would be divorced. He doesn't love me based on my appearance and he won't refuse me based on my physical "flaws".
9.Why or Why not??

if its okay, i'm not gonna answer each individual question, but suffice it to say that yes, i have stretch marks on my tummy from my baby girl. they did fade some from when i was my biggest at 9 mos pregnant, like my Dr. promised. but they haven't gone away. my Dr. said they won't ever completely fade away.

1.Does anyone have any stretch marks on their stomach??? Yes I do
2.If u do,do u have alot?? Yes I think it is a lot.
3.What ALL do u use on them??? I don't use anything on them except lotion once in a blue moon when my tummy feels a little itchy and dry.
4.Does it make them go away?? they are much lighter with time, but so far they have not disappeared
5.Does it make them lighter?? n/a
6.How long have u been using the stuff for?? n/a
7.What All does your partner say about them?? He doesn't mind them at all. It just another wonderful part of me and he loves it all. He did comment two nights ago that since losing weight, my stretch marks are more pronounced, I guess since my skin is sagging some. He wasn't mean, just matter of fact and interested.

8.Has he refused to do stuff with u like have sex with u when he has
seen them?? absolutely not
9.Why or Why not?? see #7

It means they are more obvious. Before I lost weight, they weren't as obvious, but now they are raised a bit more above my skin because my skin is looser around my body since loosing fat. It's not necessarily a good thing, but I am not concerned about them because I figure over time my skin fit over my body again. I figure all always have my stretch marks, and I'm ok with that.

1.Does anyone have any stretch marks on their stomach??? Sure do
2.If u do,do u have alot?? Yep
3.What ALL do u use on them??? I use nothing. I can't mark stretch marks disappear. They do fade over time. However, Cocoa Butter Lotion can help prevent new ones esp, in pregnancy.
7.What All does your partner say about them?? My partner says nothing. He has stretch marks too, only b/c he's so tall however...
8.Has he refused to do stuff with u like have sex with u when he has
seen them?? Anyone who would refuse to have sex with you because of a few stretch marks doesn't deserve your sex to begin with. Perfectly skinny people can have stretch marks...

I started getting stretch marks when the affects of PCOS really started to hit me hard. I'm your calssic PCOS case, most of my weight is in my midsection. I've been working really hard to lose weight, but I know that I will never have a tight stomach again without surgery and frankly, i'm not really about it... My husband is tall, built and handsome. He loves every little thing about me, even my chub, but he's super supportive of me.. Any man (or woman) who would refuse to be intimate with someone because of a physical flaw doesn't deserve a second look. You need to be comfortable in your own skin. Trust me, I'm not happy about the way that I look, but I know that DH loves me for me... no matter what.
