Linea Nigra

Well now I am sure I just got a huge hormone dump because all of a sudden I have a Linea Nigra (dark line) running from my belly button down to my pubic bone. It is caused by pregnancy hormones that increase production of the pigment melanin and usualy happens in the third trimester. I can't believe how bang on my internal clock is, I mean I just started my third trimester 2 days ago!

I love it! Your belly looks so beautiful. I'm only a few weeks behind you so it's nice to see what I will hopefully look like soon!

Aren't our bodies amazing? I am in awe of my growing belly everyday. It is just so amazing that I can be a part of this totally natural process!

I have been noticing my linea negra, too! But only in the mirror, since I can't see much past my belly button just looking down :)
