You are not alone in your experience with stretch marks. In fact, between 50 and 90 percent of women who are pregnant will have stretch marks during or after birth.
Stretch marks (striae) are streaks that appear on the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks or other places on the body. They're common in pregnant women, especially during the last trimester. Stretch marks are long, narrow streaks, stripes, or lines that develop on the skin. They occur when the skin is suddenly stretched and are extremely common at various stages of life (not just pregnancy)!
Stretch marks form in the dermis, or middle layer of our skin, when the connective tissue is stretched beyond the limits of its elasticity. This is normally due to rapid expansion or contraction of the skin
As the body grows, the connecting fibres in the dermis slowly stretch to accommodate slow growth. However, rapid growth leads to sudden stretching. This causes the dermis to tear, allowing deeper layers of skin to show through, and this process can lead to the appearance of stretch marks.
Though you may be bothered by their appearance, the pesky itchiness can also be really bothersome during pregnancy. The reason you’re feeling a desire to itch is because as your bump grows, the skin on your tummy begins to stretch and pull.
