As the gestational age increases, stretch marks gradually appear in the abdomen, waist, thighs, and other areas of pregnancy. As the abdominal circumference further increases, stretch marks also gradually increase. So, will stretch marks still grow in the third 36 weeks of pregnancy?
Whether a woman will develop stretch marks at 36 weeks of pregnancy depends on the specific situation. If it is a overweight woman, because the abdominal fat layer is thick and the skin elasticity is good, it will not cause more and more obvious fiber breakage in the skin layer as the fetus develops after pregnancy.
Therefore, stretch marks may be rare or even non-existent. If this is the case, at 36 weeks of pregnancy, it is almost full-term pregnancy, and the fetal development is basically complete, so the possibility of stretch marks growing in subsequent weeks of pregnancy is relatively small.
Some thin and frail women may experience more skin elastic fiber breakage due to abdominal enlargement at 36 weeks of pregnancy, resulting in more and more noticeable stretch marks. As the gestational age continues to increase, although fetal development has slowed down, there may still be some slight increase in stretch marks. Therefore, thin and frail women may have the possibility of adding some stretch marks after 36 weeks of pregnancy.
However, whether there are many or few stretch marks during pregnancy, it witnesses the greatness of being a mother. Therefore, pregnant women should accept it with an optimistic and positive attitude. The stretch marks that appear during pregnancy are also a proud mark for a mother.
