  • Its just diferent skin pigments. The darker your skin tone the more likely you are to get it. It's called the linea negra...
  • Its driving me nuts lol
  • So if your pale you won't get it?
  • Hormones cause an increase in melatonin which is the cause of production of pigments in the skin.... you always had that line just never to where you could see it like now. After birth it should go away
  • K thanks guys :)
  • @Jessie23 not necessarily ... I'm very pale, always the lightest color in makeup. Any brand lol. And I have a very dark one
  • That was going to be my question; When does it go away? It doesn't help that mine has also developed a trail of hair as well.
  • Mine goes down my whole belly.
  • I'm pale lol. And I don't have mine yet this pregnancy (27 wks) but with the other pregnancys I had it.....it wasn't like super dark tho.......
  • Man I'm just now getting that line! Nd I'm 33wks. I was like wth kinda late lol
