Don't worry the color will fade slowly. I had my son last July and have stretch marks from all the way down there to about one inch above my bellybutton. The color is faded to a nice very pale pink (that I can live with, it's hardly noticeable) but the grooves
1/4 inch wide and they will not shrink or even out one little bit. I tried to cover them with make-up but the texture remains very visible, if have resorted to body stockings instead (and the naked dress from the Swap Meet
)
