    Default Belly Button?

    Hi, I'm a newbie, and sorry for what might be a silly/obvious question! I was just wondering when you noticed your belly button going from innie to outie during your pregnancy? I'm at 22 weeks in my first pregnancy, was "average size" when I got pregnant, and have gained about 12 pounds so far. Thanks for any insight to quell my curiosity!

    The top of the uterus normally reaches the belly button at 20 weeks & grows a cm per week thereafter until you are due. So probably in the next couple of weeks. I am 31 weeks & mine is still not completely an outie. It kind of pops back & forth.

    mine never did the first time.........and I'm not sure this time. I'm 32 weeks and it's still pretty much a flat line.

    mine didn't either, although it was stretched so much and that too asymmetrically.

    Thanks for all great info! I'm learning so much from everyone's posts on all the different threads.
    I have worked in an extremely male-dominated profession for about 10 years since college and I move a lot (6 times in the last 9 years). so--I have very few girlfriends to ask these questions! It's so nice to have these boards to read
