It was bound to happen. I'm tall and thin; there was no way I could come out of a pregnancy without stretch marks. As my tummy grew, though, I could not find any. When William was born I still could not see any stretch marks. Mostly relieved, I was still slightly disappointed that I didn't earn my "warriors wound," my "badge of honor." I all ready have stretch marks on my ass from high school (I was blessed with a booty) from that growing but where was my "mommy mark?" For the last 2 weeks though I did notice a couple red squiggles on my thighs, practically invisible due to my tanned skin but I thought I had just pinched my leg during labor or something. Tonight I realized that they weren't marks from me grabbing my legs or something during labor, those squiggles are stretch marks! Well now we know where all that pregnancy weight gain went.
