peeling skin on my belly button?

Bit weird but has anyone else had this?

I'm 28 weeks and just noticed the skin on my belly button is peeling Shock I use tummy cream each night and it's not peeling anywhere else on my bump.

I noticed around 15/16 weeks that the skin on my bump and in my belly button was dry and a bit flaky hence the tummy cream which has helped a lot. Very odd! Could it be because it is stretching (or has stretched)?

I'm not huge or anything but obviously my tummy has grown (I had my belly button pierced but took it out at 14 weeks and now the hole has almost closed completely but peeling is not on the piercing site and the piercing was done 10 years ago)

Most odd!

My belly button went really strange the bigger I got, it started peeling too but the skin was really dark! It's,still like it now and I gave birth 13 weeks ago! Think it might be something to do with that line you get down your belly that makes you look like a kinder egg

Very odd

I shouldn't worry the worse is still to come. I got stretch marks at 34 weeks, linea nigra and a dark flat belly button piercing hole. Plus a hairy belly which is prob from testosterone as I'm having a boy. So glam Confused

I'm 28 weeks too and for the last few weeks mine has been peeling and is going darker! Weird things belly buttons they freak me out slightly, but I'm guessing its pretty normal I really don't want mine to end up sticking out :-/
