Linea Negra

Pikmin620 · January 2012

Anyone else have one yet? I just noticed mine last night.. was changing for bed and saw it in the mirror. At first I thought it was just an imprint from a clothing seam but felt it and it wasn't indented at all. It was still there this morning - I have no idea why but it kinda cracks me up

I had one with DS, but not yet with this one. With DS I also had darkening on my arms. I thought it was from the sun. Maybe there is still time for me to get one!

I've had one below my belly button since puberty. It has gotten a little darker and wider during pregnancy, and I've also developed one above my belly button going up towards my sternum. Fun times!

I bet there's still time! Was the arm darkening all over or just on parts of your arm? I'll be interested to see if I get any of that. Especially since I'm heading to the beach for the next week and will be spending a decent amount of time in the sun!

I've had mine since about 14 weeks. My hubby saw it before I did and he just goes "nice line" with a big smile on his face. LOL

I was pregnant with DS in the summer and I would get dark patches on the parts of my arms that saw the most sun. The tops and forearm. The linea negra took FOREVER to go away. I finally had to scrub it off with a wash cloth when DS was like 9 months old haha.

Haha thats crazy! And so funny that it could be scrubbed off eventually.

I have had one since about 14-15 weeks I think. Kind of bizarre, but not many people see my belly these days

Don't have one yet....but I am also very very fair and I read that fair skin sometimes wont show it. So I guess time will tell.

Had one with DD and faded completely by the time she was 2 months old or so. Nothing with LO#2- I'm hoping I don't get it again.. we'll see though.

It was weird. I was able to scrub or loofa (spelling?!) all of the darkness off my stomach and arms eventually.

I have had one for a coupld months now. I noticed it slightly and then my DH did too. I had it with my first as well.

picklesx · January 2012

I noticed it about a week ago. It's light, but it's there...not so much under my belly button but definitely there above it. Its crooked, too!

willadieselstm · January 2012

I am starting to get a very very faint one. It is almost has a green color to it. But it is hard to see through all of the belly hair I have these days! ha.
