I think I got mine about halfway through by first full pregnancy. It faded after my son was born but I nursed for awhile and got pregnant after weening so it never really went away.
@Katrina919, yes, it starts at my pubic bone area and goes towards my belly button, but isn't quite at my belly button yet. Maybe if it's there this early it just means it'll be super dark and long in a few months, yikes.
No line for me yet. I honestly freaked out a bit because it says it could show up this week. However, my sister hardly got one at all during her pregnancy, and it's true that fair skinned women may not see much of one!
I'm half Indian and my Linea Negra started around month 5. If your skin is pale, you don't normally get it. It's mainly women who have dark skin.
I STILL have a faded dark line just below my belly button. Thinks it's going to be there for life now, as seven years on, it shows no sign of fading and now I'll get another one! lol.
It shows up earlier in some people then others from what I've read. I didn't have it two weeks ago when it said something about it in my 11w update, but I'm starting to see it very faintly now. It's not past my belly button though. I started noticing it after 12w.
i'm very fair skinned and 11w tomorrow. I just noticed a line this morning very faint but even SO can see it so it's not just my eyes playing tricks on me. it wasn't even there yesterday. crazy!
Re: dark line
Thanks ladies! The bump said today in my 11 week update that I might start to see the line, so I was just wondering.
ijdorweiler, are you seeing it below your belly button?
