I went for my routine 16w check-up with my OB and we were chatting about some of the funny things we have come across in our careers. (I'm a NICU nurse so the stories are just too good to be made up). We were talking about the height of my uterus and where it will be next visit and I joked that my belly button will pop soon. She told me that she was taking care of a young teenaged FTM, and got a frantic call from her (or the answering service) at 2am. The girl said, my belly button timer popped, why haven't I gone into labor yet? My doctor said it took everything in her to not crack up hysterically on the phone with this girl. So ladies, when your belly button timer pops, it's time for labor! Happy New Year!
I had tons of abdominal surgeries so my belly button never popped because of scar tissue. But my cousins flipped inside out so it looked like a puckered button, so I am glad mine never did.
PSA: Checking your belly button depth at work may cause strange looks if you are caught....not that I know from experience... Mine is getting shallower.

Re: A little pregnancy humor to end the year with.
This is going to sound stupid... but after a belly button "pops" does it go back in after? I've always loved my "innie", haha.

Lol!! That's too funny!
And willowpriness, I was the same way. I got HUGE with both kids and my belly button never popped. It just looked like I didn't have a belly button.
