Did Adam have a belly-button? I believe we can say, "No - Adam didn't. Neither did Eve."
Why? Because your belly-button (navel), or tummy-button as it's sometimes called, is a sign that you were once attached to your mother. You depended on that life-line - the umbilical cord - for your nourishment from her body as you developed inside her.
But our first parents, Adam and Eve, didn't develop that way. I believe that God would not have planted on them a false indication that they had developed in a mother's womb.
When God created Adam and Eve in mature form, the day they were created they might have appeared to be, say, 30 years old. But God wouldn't want or need to create the appearance of a false history, any more than the mature trees created by God would have had growth rings initially. Those are things which would develop in their offspring as a result of processes later on.
What's more, this would be a tremendous testimony to God's creativity. Ken Ham once put it this way: Lack of a belly-button on Adam and Eve would be one of the biggest tourist attractions in the pre-Flood world, as the grandchildren and the great-grandchildren would come up and say, "Why don't you have a belly-button?" And they could recount again and again, to generation after generation, how God had created them special by completed supernatural acts, and yet had designed them to multiply and fill the Earth in natural ways that are equally a part of God's continuing care for what He created.

Adam and Eve had no reason to have a belly botton. A belly button is a scar from where we were connected to our mother so we could recieve food in her womb. Once we come out we no longer need it. Adam was created from the dust of the ground. Eve was created from Adam, but no birth pain in the Garden.

Sure, they have belly buttons. In medical science, it is called umbilicus- the depressed abdominal scar left by the separation of the umbilical cord (the navel-string, attaching the foetus to the placenta) after birth; the navel.

Yes they should have had. Then only they could have passed genes for production of Belly Buttons to their offsprings. One of the answers says that sex is decided on final few weeks before birth. It is totally wrong. Then how sex tests can predict sex after 3rd Month.

well because they did not exist just in bible probably they did not have one because they had no mom ,just a dad=god
but because the evolution theory say we are a smart monkey /ape family so the first humanoids must of had belly buttons since they had a mom and they are not born from some bird or fish egg

Since they didn't have umbilical cords (as the story goes), my answer would be no - they did not have belly buttons.

If you think they came from monkey's -then yes... otherwise.... would God have a belly button, they were made in his image... also - why do men have nipples?
