Last night after work, I consulted with my ob in Aster because I was vomiting for 2 consecutive days which is abnormal given the fact I'm entering my 33rd week as per USG. I was given some direct IV injections to cure my unsettled stomach. Apparently my acidity level is affecting my food intake.

| stealthy stretch marks :( |
But then, it was that fateful night that I discovered that stretchmarks crept underneath my belly!!!! I was in the loo doing my bladder stuff when I happen to look at my engorged tummy on the bathroom mirror. I actually thought there was some discolored skin then when I pulled up my belly...it was staring angrily at me. The day before, these SM are not there and I was quite admiring how flawless my belly is... little did I know that it can appear overnight....huwaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!
I was religiously applying Palmer's tummy butter and organic shea butter from Africa since my first trimester to avoid these creepy stretch marks. My mum doesnt have one after two kids so I was actually expecting I wont get it... passing my 7th month...I was proud to call my belly a flawless pregnant belly... until now.
However, despite the new "hero's" mark as the warrior mums call their stretch marks... I will still apply the tummy butter in hope that it will minimize the creeping of the veins. Any further suggestion to eliminate them is very much welcome and appreciated.
