Belly Button Randomness

in January 2015 Moms
So, I knew pregnancy could do weird things to belly buttons, but I wasn't expecting to end up needing to do special care for it. Mine is definitely still an inny but a scrunched up one that I gotta clean and dry and put antibiotic ointment in. Anyone else having interesting experiences with their belly buttons? Can anyone still fit anything in there? Lol ;)

    Mine is still an innie, but I don't really have to do anything special to it.

    Same as PP. I'm still an innie, but it doesn't require special attention.

    Mine is working itself into an outie. It's been flat for awhile, but is just starting to poke out. I haven't had to do anything special with it.

    Why do you need to put antibiotic ointment on it? Has your skin split open

    It's not split or anything, it just is scrunched up and moisture is getting trapped inside which makes it a happy place for bacteria and fungus. I caught on really early so it never got ugly (just noticed one day I had a little crusty pus just inside) and asked doctor about it. So I just gotta take a little extra care. :-)

    NO change. I'm still an innie. It didn't change in my other 2 pregnancies either

    Mines an innie but I couldn't really stick my finger in it towards the end of my pregnancy. Now that the baby is out, I can stick my finger in it again. Feels weird.

    I always remember after delivery my belly button still feels a little stretched out.

    Mine is still innie, I've never gotten an outie

    Still an innie. I was kinda hoping it would pop out but much to my disappointment it didn't. Oh well. Yet somehow it's like a shallow innie. I have to clean it while I'm about to go potty though because when I clean it it intensifies the need to pee. Weird. My DS is also obsessed with my belly button. It gets kind of annoying.

    Mine is just completely flat. It's usually an innie, but right now it's as if I don't have one at all.

    Still an innie here, thank goodness.  Never 'popped' with any pregnancies.

    Mine is totally an outtie...and its sensitive to the touch...so if I kind of bump into a wall or door frame while turning or something it usually throbs a lil. Not comfortable experience.

    Mine was a total outie with my first two. This time i call it a baseball hat...the top pokes out like the brim of a hat but the bottom is still tucked away inside!

    I thought mine was for sure going to pop out the other week. It was flat and when I would what it while I breathed it would pop out and go back in. But now that LO dropped it's an innie again.

    Mine is an outie now. However, it is no longer in the middle of my belly, but off to the side.

    Mine is very close to flattie status. I didn't pop out last time, so I'm not expecting to this time...

    Mine's kind of weird looking. It just started poking out a tad at the top but is flat everywhere else. It's very sensitive and for some reason, DH wants to touch it all the time.

    Another half-innie-half-outie here. The outie part is REALLY outie though and you can see it through my clothing. 

    It didn't pop with DS though it did become more shallow.  I hope it goes back to normal after this little lady!

    mine is still and innie but it's gone all smiley-face on me (which it didn't do last time) and looks like it's threatening to half-pop...like the top part wants to pop out but the bottom doesn't.  no special care here either.

    Mine basically is just a line(almost like a scar.) It's super sensitive. I really hope it goes back to its original innie when little lady gets here!
