LINEA NIGRA THEORY!!

Hi everyone! The Linea Nigra is the dark line that can form on your belly while pregnant. The theory says that if the line goes from your bellybutton down to the top of your pubic bone, then you are having a girl and if the line extends above your bellybutton you are having a boy! Was this correct for any of you??

I've never had one, period.

:)

I had a really dark one from my belly button down for DS1, and none for no.2
Another old wives tale lol!

This is my third boy and I've never had one.....

I've never had one either.

No, that theory didn't work for me either.

I've never had one but my BFF had one and she had both going up and Dow and had a girl... She is actually the only person I know that has had it

I never had one.

I had that with all my girls all the way up and down. And it was dark but almost nothing with my boy .Actually there was a faint line after he was born . I think no way we can tell gender from this lines.

I dont have one yet with this one (girl) but I had a full (albeit light) one with DS1 and a half (also fairly light) one with DS2 :)

With both my boys I had a faint one that went from by belly button down.

I had one from my pubes to my boobs this time and had a boy.

Never had one at all ever

Never had one either, two boys, one girl baking. I still have time to develop one I guess, but it doesn't seem likely.

i had none at all with my first boy, i had one from belly button down with my girl (actually, had one before I even got a positive pregnancy test), then none with my second boy. I'm not sure if I see one or not this time--if I do, it's VERY light.

I had this with all 3 but it was very faint and never showed up until right after I gave birth. It was the same with all three from belly button down.

I have had one both times, both time it's very faint, both times it's gone belly button to pubic bone, and both babies boys :)

This just happened to be correct for all of my pregnancies

I was kind of hoping it would be fairly accurate because i don't remember having one past my belly button for my previous 3 pregnancies, which were all girls. I have one that goes above my belly button this time and was hoping for a boy!

I never heard of this one :-/

I had a line going from my bellybutton down with both boys. It was darker with DS1 than with DS2.

I never had one in any of my pregnancys...

I had a light one from the naval down, with my son.

Ditto

Mine went both up and down for DS! So I guess it's 50% right?
