Don't be worried, this is normal.

I agree. This happens to some women. Don't be worried.

Thanks a lot =)

Think of it as a big brown target for your baby.  When they're first born they can't see as well so your skin may change color to help guide them.

The color change is due to hormones. It will probably be permanent. You may also see small bumps around the areola. These are glands that produce oil. works great to keep your nipples tuff during nursing. Lots of suction going on there ;)
