  Mine is totally still in full force. In fact, I think it looks darker! I never couldn't wear my rings so I can't help you there.

  1. It's still there. It's gone down to about halfway down my stomach (instead of the full thing), but the part that is there has only faded slightly.

  2. I forced them on for our photo shoot at 7 days, but they didn't comfortably fit until about a month pp.

  1) Don't remember, but it did go away.
  

  2)  New Years Day after an early October baby.

  I couldn't wear my rings until I started my 1st period at 9 months postpartum (I was bfing).  I never had a very dark linea negra, and I could really only see it just above my belly button and that didn't go away for quite a while.

  I offer no real help because I only took my rings off during birth because the anesthesiologist said I had to.

  1. Mine faded by about 5 or 6 months.  It got lighter over time - it didn't just disappear over night.

  2. Not till about 4 or 5 month pp.  They are still a little snug.

  1. Mine is still very light...

  2. I never had to take them off this time. (but with my first I think at about 8 weeks)

  1. Mine fit again around 3 weeks pp.

  2. Mine hasn't gone away yet. Dr. S said 4 months.  It sounds like everyone is different though.

  My linea negra took a few months both times.  My fingers went back within 6 weeks both times.

  GL!

  (1) Did your linea negra go away?   Sad to say that I can still faintly see it. 

  (2) Were you able to wear your wedding rings again?  Umm, 2-3 months? But it was ridiculously hot last summer so I blame some of it on that.
