Copy and Paste *belly buttons are funny*


Protruding Navel

If your belly button used to be an "innie," be prepared for a change. Why your navel "pops" and what to know about it. What it is: The "popping" out of the belly button in the second trimester. What causes it: Your rapidly expanding uterus pushes your abdomen forward, making your belly button pop out like the timer on a well-cooked turkey. What you need to know about it: It might not be fashionable with anyone but the pregnant set (its de rigueur in expectant circles), but you can expect your navel to start poking its way through your clothes around the end of the second trimester. (Thanks to hormones, your nipples might be doing the same!) Like so many other symptoms of pregnancy, a popped-out belly button is both harmless and inevitable, whether you were sporting an innie or an outie to begin with.
What to do about a protruding navel: ·
Nothing. Your belly button will get right back to its regular position a few months after delivery, although it may look a little stretched out or "lived in." Remember, it's just one more badge of honor to wear proudly.
****fortunately i was blessed with a little "extra" weight to begin with so i hopefully wont have this situation...which may start this week.*
