Sensitive Belly Button

Hi there just wondering if anyone else has had this before? I'm currently 36+4 and my belly button is so sensitive even when I'm wearing a top it's horrible, my midwife said it can be down to hormones and it being very stretched! I've tried creams and a bath but it's still sensitive, I don't know if it makes any difference that my placenta is at the front too any advice would be great thanks ladies x

Oh god, I remember this, kind of like a tingly numbness, it was very irritating.

I had my boy 10 weeks ago and that feeling has definitely gone, I think I had it for a few days postpartum but that was it.

Sorry, I don't have any remedies, but at least you don't have far to go!

@Ajahd I'm so glad someone else has had it! This is my second baby and I'm definitely bigger than I was with my first, it's such a weird sensation but it's horrible 😫 glad it went for you after your baby arrived! Thank you for the reply
