Belly Button Scar

in 3rd Trimester

I got my belly button pierced when I was younger. But I took the ring out months before I even planned to get pregnant. Anyways now there's a HUGE scar on my bellybutton LOL. 

It's so ugly  I hate looking at it. As my belly grows more and more it gets bigger and bigger. It's about the size of a dime. I was thinking of trying the mederma scar stuff on it. Just wondering if anyone has used it for anything and if it works??

    I got my belly button pierced and took it out years ago however my piercing stretched with my first pregnancy and went back down after delivery.  I'm assuming that will happen with this one too.  I wouldn't fret too much.

    Wait to see how it looks after LO arrives- you'll probably be surprised about how it goes back.

    I had my belly button pierced in HS and it tore a little so I took it out and let it heal. It looks awful now since it was already scarred to begin with and now it is super stretched out... It's about the size of a nickel with 2 long, think stretch marks coming out the top of it...

    I have the same thing, took the piercing out when I was 14 but it scarred up and has always been inside my belly button, until now, I have a stretch mark running through it and it looks like a rabbit...

    mine is absolutely disgusting and i'm getting nervous.  i have NO stretch marks except for 2 little ones that are coming out of the top of the piercing (like maybe 1/2 and inch or so).  then the skin that was pierced is a bright purple.  i'm freaking out but i'm hoping it will return to normal once LO is here.

    Oh if we only would have known what we were getting ourselves into years ago when we got it pierced...

    I only had a tiny little dot after my stomach returned to it's normal size
