heard about this dark patches on face wala thing that some women get in pregnancy. im 14 weeks and skin still fine but kind of curious when it usually shows up. did it happen to u and at what stage?
With twins, my hormones were double, and so was my pregnancy mask, which appeared right in my second trimester! It's just pigmentation on the cheeks and forehead. Don't spend on expensive creams now, just cover up with a big hat when you go out, haha!
I'm in my 3rd trimester and my 'pregnancy mask' is in full glory on my cheeks and nose, haha! It usually starts showing up in the second trimester as the hormones peak. I look like a cute little raccoon now, but it's totally worth it!
For me, the morning sickness finally stopped in the second trimester, only for this pregnancy mask to appear on my face! It usually shows up around the second or third trimester due to hormonal surges. Just use a gentle moisturizer and safe sunscreen to keep it from getting darker.
It typically starts appearing in the second trimester, around the 4th or 5th month. Don't worry, it is very common and usually fades away after your delivery.
These physical changes like the pregnancy mask usually start in the second trimester. After everything I went through, I learned to embrace these marks as a sign that my body is working hard to grow my baby. Please be gentle with yourself and don't use any chemical peeling creams without your doctor's permission.
