I read that 'even the deepest innies' will protrude during pregnancy, usually by the sixth month. Well I am 6 1/2 months pregnant now and it is still as deep as it always was! Should my belly button be poking out?? What experiences with this has everyone else had??

I have a very deep innie, as well. When I was a few months pregnant, I saw a woman in a store's maternity dept. whose belly button was protruding so far that you could clearly see it even through her pants and top, and I worried about that through the rest of my pregnancy. My ob/gyn told me that some do but not all. She said I could expect it to get shallower or flatter but not to worry too much about it protruding, and it never did.
So, your "innie" shouldn't be a problem, but it's always best to talk to your doctor with any concerns you might have. That's the best way to remain relaxed and enjoy your pregnancy!

That's not true - my belly button is an innie and by my 7th month it had merely stretch sideways to the point it looked like a smile! Don't worry - it'll probably poke out sometime before delivery, even though mine only did a little.
Blessings!

Not every pregnancy is the same. Remember this, write it in bold letters somewhere and never forget that! I'm telling you now, I'm on my 3rd child and everyone, everyone is always comparing you to other people when their pregnant, it's never the same for everyone. Just remember that it'll come in handy when someone says somethign and comes out as an insult and you remember hey, your not like everyone else. This is a good thing!
Alright, the belly button. My first child I never had a popping button, neither with my second child, This is my third and it popped right out. (at 7 months) You can be on your first and have your belly button coming out, or your third and not have it. Honestly it's normal to not have one, or to have one, early, late, doesn't really matter. Either way, it's normal!

No, not everyone's belly button pops out. I actually had a "flat" belly button at the end of my first pregnancy, and I have deep innie as well.
You still have a little bit to go, so it still may "pop" :)

mine hasn't poked out... i don't think it is going to... i am getting bigger just under my belly button, and with the skin stretching out around my bottom of my belly button, it looks like a smile... it's so cute... my sister's belly button did poke, but not until she was over 5 months pregnant, it just depends on ur body type, and how big u get.

Mine never poked out at all with my first pregnancy and it hasn't this time either, so no, your belly button does not have to poke out.

Mine never poked out it just became a little bit more shallow. I think that is nice because it is suppose to be a bit painful if it pokes out.
