Brown line on belly

Just wondering when this brown line down the middle of my belly will go away? Is there anything I can do to make it go away faster

Re: Brown line on belly

  • Oh I asked J13 this a while ago. Most answers were 6 to 12 months post partum.

  • Hi! It took about 6 months for me.
  • It's called the linea nigra.

    Try googling it.

  • Mine is still there and I'm sure it won't go away. It's really dark...

  • My doctor told me it would go away after I was done breastfeeding.
  • Mine is already fading, but it's slow- google told me usually within a year.

  • Mine is still just as dark... I am more curious if my skin tone will go back to normal. I look like I have an odd dark tan across my stomach, if all of me were that dark I'd be thrilled lol!

    I noticed this too! I feel like my stomach is darker then the rest of my body.

    Oh, pregnancy!

    I have this too. My stomach skin tone has gotten a little more normal (8 wks pp tomorrow) but it's still darker than the rest of my skin. My line is the same color it's been since the last month or so of my pregnancy.
