1ST PREGNANCY

Aiyoh don't worry lah, this darkening is super normal in pregnancy, hormones messing with our skin pigmentation, and it usually fades after baby comes! A few of us tried using sunscreen religiously on that area (SPF 30 at least) and keeping it out of the sun as much as we can, and it does help slow down the darkening, even though honestly it's hard to avoid completely during pregnancy.
