I have stretch marks, had them since high school. Sadly mine are not due to bringing a child into this world, mine are just from reaching 220lbs from not being able to put down the fork. I am down to 190 and the stretch marks are still there and always will be. They make my belly look lumpy and bumpy, and I HATE them. In the beginning I was really self conscience about them, thankfully im2smrt4u has never said they bother him. Even at my heaviest, my weight bothered him a little but the sex between us never showed it.

I am now comfortable enough to have sex with the lights on, hell even post a few pics showing my accomplishment in losing the weight. Mainly because I know I am working on my weight and keeping it down. I know I will never be a size 5, not even sure if I will ever be a size 12 (large hips) but I know I am working on staying healthy and that makes me say I know I am looking better than I ever have and thats good enough for me.

You should not feel ashamed or embarrassed about your stretch marks. They show you are a mother and the fact that you have lost your baby weight is amazing! Any guy who is worthy enough to be having sex with you should realize what it takes to do that. And if he doesn't then he really isn't worthy of seeing you naked or otherwise.

You are gorgeous and besides any man who could focus on your stretch marks instead of those hypnotizing green eyes is insane. I say embrace your motherhood and woman hood and say to hell with it and have sex with the lights bright and shining!
