When did it appear? I cannot for the life of me remember when mine showed up last time. I'm guessing it was around halfway through the pregnancy. I'm kinda hoping I don't get it this time...but there's still a lot of weeks left for it to show.
i got a very faint one at around 32 weeks i think (i was def in the 3rd tri). it didn't last long and disappeared by the time dd was 3 months. i was surprised too since i'm mexican and have a darker complexion.

I want to say mine showed up in 3rd tri last time as well, but no signs of it this time around (and the faint bit still remaining has continued to fade)
I have no idea when mine appeared last time, but oddly enough, I still very faintly had one when I got my BFP this time around, and a couple weeks ago I realized it is no longer there! So it left...and maybe it will come back? Mine was always pretty light, and only went up to my belly button though.
I just looked at my belly pics- it was faint at 25 weeks, but not really noticeable until 30 weeks. Mine hung around for a long time- until K was maybe 6 months or so!
I didn't notice mine until after I had DD and my belly shrunk about halfway. lol I still kind of have a faint mark and it wont go away. I've tried scrubbing it off (I remember someone on 3rd tri suggested it, lol) and it wouldnt' come off.
I honestly don't know when it appeared - I would guess at about 25 weeks? It was pretty dark. I had it until DS was about 3-4 months old. I heard that it could be scrubbed off, so I started scrubbing at it and it was gone within a week.

Mine disappeared about 3-4 weeks after I delivered Spider Pig.
It was weird, because I was able to scrub it off in the shower. Ick.
I can't believe you're 18 weeks along! So exciting!
ETA: Duh. You want to know when it APPEARED. Um, yeah. I forget. *L*

no line yet but I think it was showing by now last time...just a little anyway. I know that biitch didn't go away until I stopped nursing.
