Outtie Vs. Innie?
Posted: 10-25-05 09:13am

So I see pictures of katie holmes' supposedly 3 months pregnant belly and am really surprised to see that her belly button has popped. I know that there is speculation about how far along she actually is (experts have weighed in at about 5 months) but it made me wonder about how far along are you when your belly button pops out like that.

Does this only happen to women who already have outtie belly buttons (and if so, when typically) or does it eventually happen to all women regardless of whether they have an outtie or innie to begin with.

I am an innie and just assumed that the belly button would spread but not pop.

Just curious

Hey, everyone in my family has innies and the ladies who have gotten pregnant all have had the same thing happen to their bellybutton.

The top half has popped out a little but not much. It kinda just comes out a little and looks kinda spread, and the bottom also looked a little spread out. I think that's what's going to happen to me, but it depends on each person and how big their bellies are and the shape of the belly and all sorts of things.

Some women have innies and their belly button never pops. It all depends. :)

If you have an innie then when you are pregnant and your belly starts to grow then you might get an outie. It happens to some people but not all. It goes back to normal after the baby is born.
