When did your belly button 'pop'?

[MissBax]

Just that really!

Never but the second time it stretched to flat it was gross

First time round at about 41 weeks, but went straight back. Second time round, didn't, but baby arrived at 35 weeks so maybe I wasn't big enough!

I didn't get the linea negra either

With DC1: no linea negra, belly button didn't pop, no stretch marks.

Currently 34 weeks with DC2, and none of the above yet this time either.

I've had linea nigra for ages

But my sister has it too. Never been pregnant, has just always had one

arbrighton - apparently we all have one all the time but it's normally light so when don't see it and it darkens due to hormones when we're pregnant. I wonder whether your sister just has more of that hormone in general then?

Never

Mine never did thank goodness. I never got the linea negra either,although I've seen it on numerous other mums. Is this because I'm very fair skinned?

I used to be quite vain about my belly button, really, in hindsight.

With DS1, it was a bit out of shape but would probably gone back.

With DTDs, it stretched, went inside out and stretched some more. I have stretch marks inside my belly button. I thought I was never going to have a proper belly button again. On Woman's Hour, some doctor said that if your tummy does not go back after a year, that is it! I was gutted .

However, after I started doing ballet and contemporary dance, all the standing up straight and holding in bore fruit and I got some sort of semblance of belly button back (albeit not for public display).

Never and I had twins and was absolutely massive.

My twins only went out forwards. It was like wearing a beach ball. I got stretch marks on my stretch marks . No idea why - I only got 1 with DS. On the plus side, no heartburn.

Also never. 3 pregnancies & no linea negra either!

Mine started to pop in and out at 26 weeks. It was the strangest thing

My belly button never "popped" but I did get the line at about 7 months and it had disappeared by the time my son turned one.

I've never been pregnant but I have to know: if it does pop out can you give it a good clean? That would make it worth it for me.

Mine didn't. I was really worried about that happening, but it just got a bit more stretched!

No and I was huge.

I really hope mine doesn't, outies make me squeamish.

belly button didn't pop and no linea negra either (3 pregnancies)

Started to go at 27 weeks, fully popped by 30 weeks. It freaked me out at first but now I strangely like it

Mine never did - but it's quite deep...

Never and I had twins
No stretch marks either

Ottilie - 😂😂😂 ewwwwww...

No pop and no linea nigra with any of my 4 pregnancies (one with twins)

Mine never has either.
