Linea Nigra:
What is this? Linea nigra is the dark line that runs from your navel to your pubic bone. This is a line that may have always been there, but you may have never noticed it before because it was a light color. During pregnancy this line darkens and is possibly caused by the imbalance in hormones. It usually appears around the fourth or fifth month of pregnancy
and will be gone after the pregnancy ends.

Some of the girls here had a very distinct one. Sarah I think?

You can get them even if you're pale. I'm very fair and have one though it is not terribly dark either. Mine is really long too, from the pubic area all the way up to my breastbone (though it is darkest below the belly button).
