Today I had a very rude awakening. I woke up and noticed.....
STRETCH MARKS!!!
The picture I posted doesn't even resemble all of the faces I made this morning. I probably cried for a full hour. They are underneath my belly, and there are only a few little ones...but still. I mean, I am due in 9 DAYS! Seriously, they are going to show up now??? Happy Friday the 13th....
It was funny because I had a little emotional breakdown last night and had been crying when Nan called me. We talked, and she said that everything is better in the morning...always. I woke up in a better mood, but then saw them. I called her and reminded her of what she told me. She asked me how things were worse today, and so I told her. She busted out laughing. So did I. I mean, I have used cocoa butter, vitamin E oil, and glycerin daily since the very beginning. I have only gained 12 pounds the entire pregnancy. Genetics set me up. Stupid genetics. Oh well. It is worth it to meet my son soon:) I do plan on trying whatever I can to help them fade asap, but after Preston comes. I have several friends who got stretch marks after delivery. I am crossing my fingers and toes that I don't, but who knows!
