My Battle Scars

It took 34 weeks but it finally happened. Those wonderful stretch marks ( I count 4). The baby has dropped and those lovely red marks appeared.

I am so sad.

I know they come from the inside out and no amount of cocoa butter or olive oil is going to prevent them but how I tried. My doctor told me not to count any stretch marks until after delivery. I guess it's then you get the mother load. Ha!

You *should* be proud of those. You are growing a PERSON in there. Let's see some BOY do that! ;) Besides, they really don't last forever. They slowly fade away and are just hints of what they used to be.

Great attitude. It wont matter one bit when you are holding your beautful baby in your arms. You are almost grateful for them because of what they are a result of.
