Im in my 4th month and my skin is behaving so differently na, some dark patches near my neck and my face feels oily one day dry the next. Want to know what all changes are normal in these months so i dont keep panicking. Pls share what you all noticed.
Lot of changes na, darkening around neck, underarms, sometimes itchy belly as it stretches. My amma kept saying its all normal and she was right. But if itching gets really bad anywhere do mention to your gynac, just to be safe.
I felt so weird when this dark line came on my tummy, the linea nigra one. Nobody told me about it so i actually panicked first. Doc said its totally normal and it faded after delivery.
Both my pregnancies skin went totally different. First time glowing, second time pimples everywhere yaar. Dark patches on cheeks also came, its called melasma. Stay out of harsh sun and use a gentle sunscreen, most of it settles after baby comes.
My skin couldnt decide if it wanted to glow or break out, so it did both haha. Dark patches, that belly line, few extra moles also. Body just doing its thing, mostly fades later dont stress.
My doctor explained its mostly hormones. Common ones are melasma (dark facial patches), linea nigra on belly, darkening of nipples and sometimes skin tags. She told me sunscreen helps with the patches and most reverse postpartum slowly.
