linea nigra.

Are there any mums that have this? And did it start to appear on your lady parts?   Maybe a bit tmi, but my hair seems to grow back alot slower,and I prefer to wax so I let it grow to a length appropriate to wax. Anyway once the hair was gone I have noticed a brownish line down there but doesn't extended up my belly. Unsure if its linea nigra so I thought id ask :) TIA

Yes its probably that...it'll get darker as you progress depending on tour skin tone. Mine never gets darker than a light brown...in have it now I'm 34 weeks and I'm starting to see it above my belly button now very light but I can see it...It'll go away once you deliver.:)

In my first pregnancy I got it at 10 weeks. It went from my hairline to my belly button. This time I got it at 20 weeks and it goes from my hairline to my boobs! Faded straight after giving birth though.
