Numbness around belly button- 34 weeks

[NewMamaToBee]

Hi all,

I’ve noticed over the past week complete loss of sensation around my belly button. I can’t feel anything even when I run my hands on the skin near my belly button.

is this expected and normal? Any advice?

thank you in advance

Personally I haven't heard of anyone experiencing this. But either way, anything outside of your normal at this stage of pregnancy I wouldn't ignore. Does your trust have some sort of mamas line you can call? If not can you reach your midwife to talk about it? Better to check and it be nothing problematic than to ignore it I think.
