Hi
I have gone through your complaints but stretch marks don't have a sudden onset.
They are usually seen in individuals after suddenly loosing or gaining weight.
The rashes can be due to prolonged lying on the bed.
Just keep them under observation and try to change frequent sides on the bed.
Regards
