Stretch marks after c section?

Has anyone else gotten stretch marks after c section? I didn’t have any while pregnant but just noticed some on my stomach all of a sudden being 6 weeks pp.

ME! I went in with two and came out of surgery with 10 😭 I just bought bio oil and collagen and we’ll see what happens

Same! I had none during pregnancy and now 7 weeks PP I see red stretch marks on my waist.

Oh thank goodness! I just looked down in the shower and was like wait a gosh darn minute where’d those come from 😅

I had this after having my first baby (not a c section). Apparently you can get them from skin shrinking down quickly as well as stretching. I daren’t look yet this time (6 days pp, c section) as I know it will make me sad!

They’re called shrink marks

Yes same here! I had none during my pregnancy and after C-section they are very noticeable and quite a lot 😩

I carried small the whole time and not one mark and now a week after an emergent c-section I’m now seeing some by my belly button though I think I did that postpartum itching one night cause my incision has been bothersome

Yep have them too, I'm 9m pp and had shrink marks.

Yes ong

But they are small
