My belly button has actually ripped 38 weeks

[Solangestables]

That. Not "about to rip." Not "feels like it's going to."

It has. It's bleeding and very sore.

Is this just anther part of pregnancy?

[Passthecake30]

Oh dear. That didn't happen to me....mine just went more flat but it was still inside... Savlon??

[Solangestables]

Seems like the only option. Do you think the hospital will sow it back up again?

[Haggisfish]

Oooh poor you! Never actually heard of this happening, no.

[NoCapes]

No help but I just wanted to say - ouch! You poor thing!

[Farfromtheusual]

Am 37 weeks and mine is literally hanging on by a thread I gave up trying to save it about a week ago...Not sure if hosp would sew it back up, I doubt it though!

What does google say can't bear to look myself

[Solangestables]

Google is full of people saying they "feel like it is about to" rip. But I just looked down and there is a V -shaped tear on the top. And blood.

[Farfromtheusual]

Yes that's exactly what mine is like!!! Has started splitting from the top! Did you keep your normal bar in or did you get a long plastic bendy one? And did it go infected/crusty first? Sorry gross

[CherryPicking]

Mine felt like it would. Can you see a doctor\ midwife and get checked over? Maybe get them to measure your bump too if it's suddenly got loads bigger.
