Linea Negra POLL

Linea Negra POLL

An old wives' tale claims that if your linea negra runs only to your navel, you are carrying a girl; but if it goes all the way up to the xiphoid (bottom-most part of the center of your ribcage), it's a boy.


Right or wrong if you know the sex of your baby?

Re: Linea Negra POLL

I don't believe in any of those things. I STILL have people tell me that I'm carrying too low to be having a girl. Last time I checked, there was no scientific proof that how you carry has to do with the sex of the baby!Chat Icon

Re: Linea Negra POLL

Ive never gotten a linea nigra with any of my pregnancies. I think it has more to do with your skin pigmentation.
