Hi,

I'm 21 weeks pregnant and my bellybutton has started to stick out. This is my first pregnancy and this is probably a stupid question...but do you flaunt a pregnancy bellybutton or do you hide it ?
Mine has just started to show through my maternity jeans and tops.I know this is probably the silliest thing to fret over (not that I am fretting:) ) but not really sure whether its acceptable to have it sticking out when I go to work and stuff cos I can't say I've noticed pregnant women's bellybuttons too much before. Do non-pregnant people find it...for lack of a better word...'disturbing'? :)
If you do cover it up, do you get some kind of sticky-tape aid in the stores to cover it up or do you just wear looser clothes?

I'm 29 weeks pregnant with no.2, my belly button is starting to come out, although I also have a piercing. It does show, but can't say I really care weather is shows. Certainly wouldn't tape it over. It's a fact of life. Be proud of it.

My friend is due in 2 months and hers sticks out. I think it is cute and it doesn't disturb me at all. She wears loose fitting tops for work so you cannot see it and I have only noticed it when she wears tighter fitting clothes. I think most people notice the bump rather than the bb :-)
