Linea nigra anyone?

channner · January 2015

I am 20w2d and just noticed a faint lint running from my belly button downwards. I'm in Miami and I think that lying out in the sun probably had something to do with it (even with SPF60!!!). Anyone else noticing their linea nigra making an appearance so early?

kls6382 · January 2015

Yes, I absolutely have this happening. 20 weeks also

leenziepops · January 2015

19+1 and I have a faint one. I live in AZ and knowing it's about to be pool season (yes, we are blessed here in the land of the sun lol) I am prepared to SPF the shit out of my belly to hopefully keep it light. ☀️

I've always had a very faint linea negra line from my belly button down. I was expecting it to darken/lengthen early, but nothing yet.

AmberC311 · January 2015

I have had a light one since about 14 weeks. Getting slightly darker weekly. Goes way up passed my belly button.

housewifebecomesher · January 2015

Mine had just gone away from last pregnancy. No new line yet! Rest assured it does go away, takes a bit, but it does.

Jtdd · January 2015

I still have mine from last pregnancy too

cnoelle92 · January 2015

I'll be 21 weeks on Wednesday and still nothing. I've just received little dark black hairs around my belly button.

taboullio84 · January 2015

Nothing yet.. I remember it hanging around after birth for me .

thelittlestbee · January 2015

20 weeks tomorrow and nothing for me yet. I did get more blonde hairs on my belly though...

moz3518 · January 2015

shahoi · January 2015

19w 4d and nothing here yet!

tanners5360 · January 2015

Totally have one 19+1

taisree · January 2015

Nothing yet. I was very said after mine disappeared after my loss, so I'm anxiously waiting for it to return

kelseygaona · January 2015

None here.... I am pretty pale and never got one with my first so far this pregnancy looking the same. I am part of the darkening belly hair club though! Beh!

lilitaliangirl · January 2015

I was just thinking about this. I had it with Ds but don't remember when it appeared. Nothing yet, this time. And just an FYI, it took a good 5 weeks for it to go away after l delivered.

MelThu · January 2015

My showed up about 16 weeks. I'm 20 weeks 3 days today. I also the echo those that have the tummy hairs as well. I mean what is up with that?!?

MrsCaliRN · January 2015

Yeah, since like week 9 or 10. Maybe because I'm black/African-American. It's still pretty faint, but certainly there.

lookingfor2583 · January 2015

I am 20 weeks Ftm
Can see the line and seems getting darker

Cuij · January 2015

I'm so envious of you right now! Glowing skin, bikini, no stretch marks, Miami..... Girl I'll take the dark line. I can offer you all of the stretch marks, a flu bug, and a bipolar Canadian winter. Deal?

channner · January 2015

@Cuji I am from Toronto and just here for work! I am heading right back to our deep freeze in a few days

If we trade, with my dark line also comes cankles, acne and hemorrhoids, deal? lol

bruunk · January 2015

I have the dark hair line - I thought it might be linea nigra the other morning then realized it was more fuzz. Joy

tiffbot1985 · January 2015

I never got one with my last so not sure if I'll get one this time!

Joolschweetheart · January 2015

a) not for me yet b) its been like -20 for what seems like 3 years here so I have serious sun envy, OP!

here too.

finchfeeder80 · January 2015

19 weeks, nothing here. But like @JimBobCooter‌, I'm practically translucent. If I do get one, it will be seriously noticeable. Not that anyone but me, the hubs and my OB will see it anyway. Even in high summer my tummy stays hidden.

FloGirl82 · January 2015

Nope. I'm pretty fair skinned though, if that has to do with anything.

SMCS5 · January 2015

I'm 17 weeks and I already have it. Also dark hair around my belly. Doctor said hair tends to grow darker because of hormones.

Knottie55308180 · January 2015

I just got home from miami! It was beautiful there! I had my line by 12 weeks at least and it just keeps getting darker and darker, it stopped below my bellow buton and now I'm noticing it faintly continuing above my belly button toward my chest!

popples8 · January 2015

I'm 21 weeks now and have one. It showed up around 14 weeks... I'd notice it right when I got out of a hot shower and my skin would be red. I have read that it is hormone induced.

I am also living in Toronto, near Yorkdale. The windows are open and it smells like spring. Wtf?

And uhm. No to the hemmerhoids. I had those last time and they are a pain... In the ass... #momjoke

Belle0720 · January 2015

Last week I noticed mine from the belly button down and initially thought it was an imprint from my leggings. It's super faint though and I'm hoping it doesn't get darker!
