Q: Marks On My Chest

Okay, I am 21 weeks and I know basically know everthing that happens to my body is pregnancy related. So about 2 weeks ago I noticed a few little marks on my chest. They are not exactly on my breast, just a little above.

So when I first saw them I thought that it was weird, but I just ignored them. A fews days after that I noticed that ther were more of them. And just now I went into the bathronn, and took off my shirt to look at my tummy, and now they are getting darker.

And it is like they are developing or whatever quickly because, this moring and the afternoon, when I took my showers, they were not that dark at all.

Is anyone elso going through this? Or has it happend to anyone at all? I am getting scared!

Is it like just a different color, or different texture too? Many people get marks on their skin of both kinds during pregnancy. Its supposed to be more common in women with dark skin. Its probably just that.

No they are not strech marks gaby. They are like dots. And there is a bigger mark on my chin under my lip erin, that one is darker and kind of rough (i have always suspected it to be pregnancy related). And the ones on my chest are much smaller and smooth like the rest of my skin, they are just darker. I remember reading something about them a while ago, but know I can't find anything. I am starting to think that I may have skin cancer, that is why I am so scared.
