Well, I woke up this morning and after my usual morning belly examination in the mirror, I saw that my belly line is forming. It's faint, but it's there! It's called a linea negra.
Hormones, which are also responsible for an impressive variety of other skin anomalies, are behind this weird little stripe. It fades a few months after the babies are born. An old wives tale used to state that it meant you were having a boy, but that has been proven wrong over the years.

I never developed that, but I did end up with a line of hair from my belly button down. Yuck!
