After Pregnancy Body

I did not have a very noticable "linea negra" when pregnant with my son, but, I did have Chloasma, "the mask of pregnancy". I had dark freckled patches on my forehead, and the sides of my breasts. The same as you, I thought they would go away quickly, but, it took about 3-4 months for them to fade, and eventually disappear.
Don't worry, it will go away, with time!!

Hi. Congrats on your new baby! I think I remember for me, it took about 3-4 months for it to fade, and then probibly up to about 6 months for it to completly go away

Congratulations! Mine took FOREVER to go away. I know it was at least 6 months, so don't worry! You're fine! :-)

I had mine until my daughter was almost nine months. One day, it just scrubed off in the shower all at once. Strange I know. Give it time.

hi, Mine didn't go away for a couple months after i had my daughter. I got a little worried that it would never go away too. I think my daughter was about 4 or 5 months when it faded away.

I have a 7 week old, and I have the same problem. However I was told by many women and my doctor that the line may get lighter but will never really fade completely. Sorry.

Hi F.!

I have one 9 month old son so I don't know if I'm "normal" or not, but I still have that dark line running down my tummy. It has lightened up a little bit, but it's still noticeable. I've lost all the baby weight, too, but I still have obvious stretch marks and that line down the middle. You're not alone!

Hi F. O. I have just recently had twin girls (4mos ago) and I still have that line and it is really dark too. I think it takes like 6 mos for it to start to go away. From what I understand it is caused by hormones. Hang in there it will go away. :)

My daughter is almost 3 months old and I still have that line too. I had it for awhile after I had my son too. I think it took about 6 months to go away. It will fade slowly, but it does go away completely.

Mine went away after about 3 months.

Mine took forever to go away.. I was alittle worried haha but it took like a year or so for mine to go away it was weird.. So Im sure it will go away with time..

With my daughter I lost it within a month. I had my son almost 8 months ago and I still have a faded version. :( I heard it could take up to a year. I've been scrubbing too! LOL I see it as another battle scar. :)

Mine to months to disappear. It does a few months for all the pregnancy hormones to go away, then it should fade and disappear.

Hi F.,

My dark line faded over about 3 months after my baby was born. Give it a little more time and it should fade nicely!
