Is it normal for your pubic area to darken during pregnancy? This question can be directed to all mothers but have mothers with darker skin tones noticed this? I'm black (skin tone is more of a caramel colour) but I've noticed that that area is a few shades darker. This is my second pregnancy and I did notice a bit of a change after I had my son but this time around I think it's gotten darker and I'm almost 14 weeks.
