The term is "linea negra" and when I had my son I had it up to my navel but no farther. It's genetic and couldn't possibly have anything to do with baby's gender.
I kinda want to know where this myth about "everyone gets an enema before/ during labor" comes from. I've never seen that being done especially as a standard practice at any of the hospitals in my area, one of which is the biggest hospital in the state, a hub for teaching doctors. If it's done routinely anywhere else I feel bad for those nurses... and also don't really see the point.

Didnt get an enema either. Ur body naturally cleans itself out before labor.

Tmi... But I've actually heard that if you have it, it means you're going to poop during birth lol So far it's proven true with people who had it. But who knows for sure.
