    Why do we get a line on our bumps?? I realy dont like it, will it ever go away? I have never seen anything like it, i think its awful. What are they called? I so hope it goes away, it looks like ive been for St.Tropez and i have one darker line of fake tan on my tummy

    It's called the linea nigra. Something to do with hormones like everything else in pregnancy Think it does go away. I've had mine almost since the start, kind of like it now. Also got a lot more hair where the line is. Don't know if this is normal. On the plus side tho I have less hair on my legs. It's the stretch marks I have that worry me. I really hope they fade quickly. x

    Yes it will go after youve had the baby, dont worry. Its called linea nigrea i think i spelt it right! lol. Its just to do with pigmentation in the skin, not everyone gets them, some people get it on their faces in the form of darker brown patches. I have it very slightly on my face, it just looks as if the few freckles that i have have merged a little .Debs x

    God its horrible isn't it?? Ive had no stretch marks, but this line is bad enough. I do not even let my hair grow in though, i always get it waxed, no pain no gain! It lasts for ages though, i have had no hair on my line yet. Whats happening to my body, its so bizarre!! x x
