Ok so has this happened to anyone else??
Since I've lowered my body fat I can see most of my abs, which is awesome. But since the mommy pooch is still there I went from an innie to like half an outie. The top half is like a hood. Does that make sense? I'm assuming it's because the muscle is pushing against it on the top half of my abs but not the bottom.
Has this happened to anyone else??? And if my mommy pooch ever tightens up and goes away will my belly button go back to normal?
I know this is a silly topic but wth it is driving me nutty!

LOL I was just talking about that with a coworker the other day. She had a baby back in December <her first> and she was saying that her belly button looks wonky cos it has a pooch now over the top, like its trying to be an outie not an inny.
Its driving her nuts!0 -

I'm not nearly as ripped as you, and mine does that too... I dunno, it doesn't bother me so much but I'd kinda like it to go back to the way it was too. lol...0

LOL Yeah I was thinking the same.0 -
Sad to say, the belly button NEVER goes back to "normal." The surest way to tell if someone has had kids, is to look for that "hoodie" belly button.
The good news is, if you can see your abs, then your mommy pooch is GONE, and you should just revel in your hotness. Belly buttons don't make the woman. And men reaaaallly don't care a bit.0 -
I think i need to see it to judge it.0

But it didn't do that before I started to see my abs!!! lol and its not gone, over my lower abs there is a nice chunk of fat/skin that refuses to go away!!!0 -
Is this the skin immediately where you'd be piercing your navel? I have something similar.. what makes it worse for me is that 1. there's a huge stretch mark there 2. it's scarred from too many attempts at piercing it.
Proposed solution: get a stomach tattoo which, in part, covers that up!0 -

STILL good news -- you can see your ABS, and they kick *kitten* (from looking at your photos)! I also don't see that chunk of skin you see. And I'll be no one else does either. I think we're too hard on ourselves. And I say that from experience, and from obsession w/my OWN mommy pooch.0 -
well thanks u guys. maybe I am just being too hard on myself. Always gotta find some fault, ya know0
