Slim people - did your belly button pop?

62 replies

AHedgehogCanNeverBeBuggered · 20/05/2017 22:21

I'm currently 28+4 and my belly button is really shallow and stretched-looking The only people I know who didn't get an outie are overweight and had deep ones to begin with - any slim people about who can reassure me theirs stayed an innie?

I'm horribly freaked out about it, the very idea of it popping makes me

I'm very slim and mine didn't pop .

NotSoEagerBeaver · 20/05/2017 22:25

Mine popped out with my second, but thankfully went back in as soon as I'd had the baby!

pasbeaucoupdegendarme · 20/05/2017 22:26

Mine popped with both, went back after number 1 but has stayed out after number 2

ZaZathecat · 20/05/2017 22:28

No popping here (slimmish)

Joinourclub · 20/05/2017 22:30

I was slim before my first, and mine never poppped. It just got wider and shallower and stretched.

eurochick · 20/05/2017 22:30

I was a size 10 and mine popped really early. It made me feel. Bit funny and I couldn't touch it. I hated the way it poked through clothes. It has gone back in but looks a bit stretched.

RufusTheRenegadeReindeer · 20/05/2017 22:30

Stayed in when i was slim with ds1

But it also stayed in when i was bigger with dd and even bigger with ds2

BlueSunGreenMoon · 20/05/2017 22:30

Mine went out, but then it went back in again not long after I gave birth. I think it looks deeper now though. I was freaked out by the idea of it going out, but it was pretty gradual and didn't look as weird as I'd expected. Tbh by that stage I was so sick of being pregnant I didn't really care!

BlueSunGreenMoon · 20/05/2017 22:30

Looks deeper than it used to look, I mean.

anon1987 · 20/05/2017 22:32

I was always always slim in my pregnancies and mine never popped.
It just went flat like I had no belly button.

tinytoucan · 20/05/2017 22:32

Mine stayed flat and has gone back in. I think it probably looks a bit stretched, but is definitely still an innie!

clumsyduck · 20/05/2017 22:34

Slim and popped out like a good un

So there IS hope!

Size 10, didn't pop! Just went totally flat. And 2 days after birth it was back to normal. Wish I could say the same about the rest of my body...

villainousbroodmare · 20/05/2017 22:52

Size 8, popped, gained 20kg ate all round me and went straight back in. Weight took about three months to come off stopped eating all round me. I've only had one though.

OSETmum · 20/05/2017 22:54

It just went flat but it's back to normal now!

MamehaSan · 20/05/2017 23:00

Nope, with neither pregnancy. It got very stretched, but it didn't pop!

Belager · 20/05/2017 23:02

Size 12 and didn't pop. Came close though!

annlee3817 · 20/05/2017 23:04

I was a size 6 when I first got pregnant, my belly button half popped. And my two piercings opened right up again, they had been closed for over two years

clumsyduck · 20/05/2017 23:19

Altho it did go back in straight away afterwards and looks the same as it did before now . If that helps !!?!

Gunpowder · 20/05/2017 23:34

Size 8 and it went flat with both pregnancies. Really gradually though. Went straight back in afterwards. What you really have to worry about is will your baby have an outie.

hopsalong · 21/05/2017 07:27

It went completely flat and white rather than really sticking out in both pregnancies (but I did find the way it looked a few weeks ago in second, as if about to split open quite terrifying). Went in again a few days after birth with both. Sounds as if this is probably what you should expect...?
