I am pregnant and my skin is producing dark patches. Is this Normal?

(via)
It is not uncommon for pregnant women to develop dark blotchy areas on their faces and although Melasma, also known as “pregnancy mask” is more likely to occur with women of darker complexions, it can also occur in those with lighter skin. If melasma or hyper-pigmentation runs in your family, you too are at risk of developing melasma. Additionally, if you have had discolouration with any one pregnancy, you have a greater chance that it will reappear, even more severely, with each pregnancy thereafter.
