Anyone not have one? I haven't noticed one and didn't know when it typically shows up.
 
I haven't yet, I got one in the last few weeks when pregnant with my daughter and it took a while to go away. Wondering if I'll get it again this time
 
The one I got with my son literally faded just before I found out I was pregnant again. I can't remember when it appeared with my son though haha. Memory like a sieve.
 
I never got one last time and I have no signs of one yet this time. I'm very pale-skinned though.
 
I think it has something to do with your skin tone. I had one almost as soon as I found out with this one, with DD it started showing around 20 weeks. I'm quite olive and have Egyptian background, so the darker skin is in my blood. My nipples are a very dark brown now too :blush:
 
Just noticed mines coming in yesterday. I'm 21 +4
 
I noticed mine last week. I have pale skin and wasn't sure I'd get one. It looks like a little tan line. Also, weirdly, I have a ring of tan skin around my belly button now that attaches to the line. It's not very noticeable though.
 
I have ate pale skin and only noticed a verrryyyyy slight line yesterday. I do seem to have developed a line of fine, blonde hair down my stomach though! :wacko:

I have a lot of Native American in me and have olive toned skin. I haven't noticed a line but my nipples have darkened quite a bit and have gotten bigger :shrug::dohh:
 
I started seeing the faintest of lines in my 12th week. I'm now passed 15 weeks and it's still fairly faint.

I'm south asian and have light brown skin.
 
I'm very pale-skinned but with dark-ish hair, and I don't have a linea nigra. I do have a very few (3 or 4) long dark hairs a couple of inches below my belly button though, which appeared at some point before 17 weeks. I didn't know they were there til the midwife asked if they were new. She said that might be all I get in the way of a line. She made me promise not to pluck them :haha:
 
Not every one gets one. I'm extremely pale skinned and was disappointed that one never appeared with my first pregnancy and there's no sign of one yet this time.
 
Hello, nope not here either. I'm blonde with fair skin and have noticed more soft blonde hairs on my belly/bump. My nipples haven't changed colour either. X
 
I have very pale skin and got one with both of my daughters. It didn't appear until a lot later (middle of third tri, I think.)
It was still very slightly visible when I got pregnant this time but seems to have disappeared although I'm are it will come back. It's always very thin and not very dark
 
Nope. Not last time either. I'm fair with red hair. Nipples are just a darker pink but only slightly. My mom didnt get one either. She's blonde and has a slightly yellower skin tone than I.
 
My husband just pointed out to me tonight "hey looks like you're getting the pregnancy line!" So apparently for me it happens around this time, and I'm 26 weeks.
 
I've got very pale skin and noticed it starting around 12 weeks. It's still quite light and only up to my belly button.
DH calls it my zipper :haha:
My nipples are still the same, no darker.
 
I'm 24 weeks and no sign at all. I have a fairly tan complexion. I'm lucky to not have any stretch marks either so hoping it stays that way!
 
I didn't get a line with my daughter and I haven't had one yet with this pregnancy so far.
