LMAO. I also gained a slight trail when I had my son. It is only a few hairs and I usually just shave them like normal. I also started getting darker hair on teh bottoms of my legs. So I really only have to shave below the knee since i am a natural blonde...lol.
@AvantLaLettre: Just to let you know, I have it too. It's not much, but it's absolutely there. I was just going to leave it and see if it went away after the baby gets here.
Thanks guys.. haha...@Quietserenity: glad to hear it's not just me!!! I want to shave it so badly......... In better news I googled it and it's really common and is supposed to go away within 6 months of the birth.
When you are pregnant your hair follicles don't fall out as often so the hair grows longer and darker. I noticed it more on my legs, but the happy trail is probably where your linea negra will be!
I just saw this - but my hair is definitely coming in more, which is distressing, because I am already an every second day shaver, and I really don't want to look like a gorilla/wooly mammoth!
I can't remember the last time I shaved my own legs....lol. DH is helping at this point since I can't see anything to tell if I missed a huge section or not.
@AvantLaLettre: Mine didn't come until 9 months, but I think it can be as early as 20 weeks that it can show up. It did eventualy fade (like a year postpartum).
@MightySapphire: ditto to the linea negra guess.Totally happened to me during my 1st pregnancy; linea negra showed up right where the hairs had appeared around my 2nd tri and stayed until about 1yr postpartum. completely normal. Not every woman has or gets, but definitely a common pregnancy thing.

I know this question is kind of gross but I can't be the only one dealing with it! I'm just about 20 weeks and lately I'm noticing so much more hair on my belly. I never had any before and now I have a happy trail above and below my belly. Anyone else? And do you leave it? Do you wax/pluck it? Will it go away after the baby comes? So many questions!! Haha. Thanks!
