Has Linea Negra Made an Appearance?

I can't remember how far along I was with DS when it showed up. All I know it that it took about a year after delivery to completely disappear! I don't have one yet with LO #2 but I'm thinking it's still too early to think I'm in the clear.

Re: Has Linea Negra Made an Appearance?

  • I can't remember how far along I was with DD either but I got it a couple of weeks ago with this one. However, It's not as dark as it was with DD. But, I'm sure it will darken up.

  • Wow, mine must have come really early, I've had it since about 14 weeks... still faint and narrow though...

  • I have one from my belly button to the bottom of my sternum. I Nothing below the belly button yet but I also can't see that area to well these days.

  • I was just noticing the same thing this morning!  I had a very dark noticeable one with DD, on both sides of my belly button which has just about faded.  It hasn't come back...yet.  It seemed like I had it forever with her, longer than just the last trimester but I can't remember for sure, so maybe won't get it this time?

    What's the OWT with these?  I'm Team Green and always looking for 'clues'!

  • Yep, it's there.  Not very dark, but definitely there.
  • Definitely there for me!

  • Not for me. Just the stretchmarks I already had from before pregnancy and gaining/losing a lot of weight got broader.

  • I have no idea when it arrived with DS but I remember having one all the way up to my rib cage. So far nothing. I think. I can't really see the bottom of my belly. Stick out tongue
  • With DD, it started to show up in the beginning of the second trimester. I'm 29 weeks now, and it still hasn't made an appearance this time.

  • I've had mine for a while, it's not super dark but definitely noticeable. From my pubic bone all the way up to my ribs!
  • I don't have one yet, but I think with DS it didn't show up until late and was light.

  • I have had a faint line for several weeks.
  • Yes, I've had mine for awhile now. It's noticeable, but it's also pretty light.

  • I don't have one yet. I had a very faint one with DS, and like you, I can't remember when it showed up. But I do remember it was gone by 3 months PP.

    Ive heard if its straight and centre its a boy and off centre or runs on a diagonal its a girl

  • I waited and waited to never get one with DD. I always wanted it to show up though. I've read it's less common in fairer complexions though and I'm as fair toned as they come.

  • No for me. It never really showed up my first pregnancy.

  • I think on the lower half just a tad. It's not above my belly button at all.

  • I got one starting around 23w with DS1, didn't have one with DS2 and just noticed it reappearing with DD. I'm thankful it doesn't bother me.

  • I don't think it showed up at all with DD, and I haven't seen any trace of it this time, either. :)
