twin skin?I'm one of the lucky ones...

Like everyone else pregnant with twins I was really bummed that I would get stretch marks, or at least a "flap". I already had 2 children when I got pregnant with twins and although I didn't get stretch marks with them, I knew with twins it was practically inevitable. I did my research online and everyone said even if you didn't get them before, they would show up around 31-33 weeks with twins. By some miracle, I didn't get any stretch marks. Maybe it is good DNA or the Bio-Oil I put on every day after 24 weeks but it didn't happen to me and I think I may have dodged the flap too. Here I am 2 weeks post partum. My babies were born at 36 weeks at almost 6 1/2 lbs each.
