Hello everyone!
I’m only 4 weeks and 3 days, and already I’ve got a faint dark line going from my belly button to my pubic bone! I read that this usually only starts to develop at around 5 months, has anyone else in their 1st trimester got this already? And does it mean anything to have it this early? This is my first pregnancy so I don’t really know what’s normal and what’s not!
 
I'd say it's normal. My app said I might have one at 12 weeks? It has a lot to do with your skin tone (pale people don't usually get them as early) and genetics, don't worry about it. :)
 
I had mine at 6 weeks.... Its continued to get darker and higher as the weeks go on, its very normal x

Thank you! I’m pretty pale which is why I was surprised! Haha! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy 😁

Oh that’s good to hear! I’m glad someone else had this symptom early too! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy :D

Oh that's interesting. I've never heard of someone fair skinned getting it so early but I'd highly doubt it's anything to worry about! At least it's an obvious sign you're pregnant :)

Thank you. I'm 16 weeks now and still no line but I don't think they run in the family. Enjoy your pregnancy too x

It's normal in pregnancy, I don't think there's a time where it should appear so I wouldn't worry.

I'm pale skinned and have never got one of those lines but everyone is different!

Congratulations on your pregnancy. x
