[miley24]

what is this line anyways why does it come

[mom22boysexpectinggirl]

I never had it with my boys and I am 31 weeks and still don't have it, I don't everyone gets it.

[Jaylae31]

Idk I guess it comes when your uterus grows nn gets bigger

[gena7]

I just got it and I'm 5 months.. I read that it comes from pregnancy hormones

[windyMae]

It's called a linea nigra and it is caused by hormones much like the darker nipples and armpits pregnant women can get.. I didn't get it with my first pregnancy and so far haven't with this one either.. You might get it you might not.

[NicoleW09]

Its called the linea nigra and its caused by hormones. Theres an old wives tale that says if it goes to your belly button you're having a girl. If it goes all the way up to your sternum its a boy. Mine is super light an you can hardly see it. I'm 31w. Some women get one, some don't. Some are light an some a dark. Its caused by the same hormones that make your nipples darker.

I haven't got it either and I'm 36w! I think my boobs took all the darkening tho. Lol.

[tgrbaby]

I'm 23Weeks along with #4 and never got that :) some women don't

[Nayfly25]

I Never got one with either of my pregnancies.

[AliCat89]

I'm 30weeks and have had mine since I think 3 months. It goes from my sternum to my pelvis. I also happen to be having twins and from what it sounds like the wives tales mentioned above are right because I'm having a little boy and a little girl lol. :)

[jwilliams81]
