Getting back on the Instagram horse!
And back to my project I had started before life went rogue!

This is a beautiful mama of 1, 3 months after her C section. Sowing her scar and beautiful linea nigra for other mamas to see. When asked about her body post natal... This mammy said she was "empowered".

I havnt really chatted about this before so let's mention it. The linea nigra is a darkening of the skin along the midline of the tummy (this midline area is known as the linea alba normal which means white line). I pregnancy good old placenta produced hormones are thought to increase melanin production which can cause darkening of the skin, and so some women will develop a linea nigra (or black line) along the midline of the belly. It can be straight or sometimes crooked. It can go the whole length of the belly or sometime s only part of it. It usually happens in the 2nd trimester and often disappears after birth but not always.

I never had one! But see them so often in clinic. Did you have one?crooked, straight? Long short? Did it dissappear after birth?

I got a message today and it made me realise that although it's great that we are now talking more about post natal issues and getting the word out there.... Don't forget that post natal isn't always a total shot show! (sorry can't think of a classier way to say that). But not everyone has issues after baby. So if youre pregnant don't be worried! You always see all the negative things.

So please comment mamas if things weren't as bad as you feared! Lets get some body positivity going here for any mamas that are expecting especially for the first time
