Linea nigra - How long to go away??

[paradise lost]

My friend still has hers from her first PG (it got a bit lighter but never went away and got darker again during her 2nd PG) and her kids are nearly 6 and nearly 3.

13 months later and I still have mine, it's faded heaps though. I remember it took over a year with DS1 too.

Olivia is 18 months and I can still see mine. It's definitely faded heaps.

I had mine for about a year, maybe more! It did fade after about 6-8 months, but it was sooo dark to begin with.

oooo, i wondered this too, i still have mine! (actually, i never noticed i had one until AFTER she was born...)

Ahh bugger!!!! I was hoping someone was going to say "oh it'll go by about 20 weeks"... hahahaha

Ahh well I guess I'm stuck with it for awhile yet. I read on some website they are supposed to fade within 8 weeks but sounds like that is just a load of "you know what"...

I still have mine from DS.. hes now 2. With DD it faded when my belly stretched.. you couldnt see it but once she was born and my stomach reduced you could see it again. I asked my OB after DS's birth how long it takes, he said some women have it forever.
