    Usually they appear during pregnancy...youll see lines on your belly that appear shiny. They wont look like what you consider stretch marks though until the skin retracts. What happens is while your belly stretches the tissue under the skin gets ripped...and it does not regenerate, when the skin retracts it is more appearant. I advice bio OIL throughout the entire pregnancy...lots of it, and if you see first signs of it...cake that stuff on, and even afterwards...they might still be there, but they will almost be invisible.
