2nd Trimester

If you hate your belly button "nub"..

Last pregnancy I didn't get the weird protruding nub until right at the end so I didn't worry too much about it.. this time I got it at 15 weeks! I really hate wearing thin shirts and feeling self conscious about my belly button. So anyways, I had some bandage tape and i just took one little piece and put it over my belly button and problem solved! Bandage tape is strong enough to stick tight all day long and I couldn't see it all through my thin shirt. So hope this helps anyone who hates their belly button :-)

  • I have a serious innie belly button...so deep that my husband is sure he could touch the baby through it :) Since this is my first, my belly button hasn't popped out yet. I'll keep this trick in mind though!

  • People laugh at me but I was really excited for my belly button to "pop". Lol I think it made me look more pregnant. I know its wierd but now that it happened it looks so wierd. Half of it popped half of it stayed in. I think the belly button is a pregnancy isssue with lots of ladies:)

    I had been dreading the belly button pop, but now I would actually prefer if it would pop I think.  Right now, I feel like if I wear a tight shirt I have this huge dent where my belly button is and it looks horrible.  When it does pop, I still plan on covering it up, so thanks for the tip!

    If your belly button is fairly deep, it might not pop at all. Mine never did with my first so I'm not expecting it to this time either.

  • My belly button is pretty funky.... I have an outie/kinda innie normally, so now it's really sticking out! I thought I would be more self conscious about it, since it was awful growing up with it, but it's actually not so bad. My hubby calls it a "cinnamon bun" LOL I guess it kinda looks like one! :P I might just try the tape idea though!!

  • I'm glad I'm not the only one. With DD, my belly button never popped, but it got completely flat. I'm 15 weeks with this kiddo, and my belly button is already very shallow.

    DH and I made "bets" on when it'll pop, because I'm pretty sure it's going to pop out this time around!
