For many of our female friends, pregnancy is something to celebrate. Many expectant parents may even wake up with a smile in their dreams and look forward to the baby coming into the world.

I wonder if we have noticed that our belly buttons bulge out when we are pregnant. Do you care and show concern? Let’s take a look at various belly buttons during pregnancy!

Introduction: The navel is also known as the belly button, and is called "Shenque" in traditional Chinese medicine. Clinicians have found that the shape of the belly button can reflect the health of the body, as detailed below.

Upward shape: The belly button extends upward, almost becoming a triangle with the top pointing upward. People with this kind of belly button should pay more attention to the health of their stomach, gall bladder and pancreas.

Downward shape: Care should be taken to prevent gastroptosis, constipation, chronic gastrointestinal diseases and gynecological diseases.

Bulging belly button: When there is a lot of fluid accumulation in the abdomen or ovarian cysts, the belly button will bulge outward.

Sunken belly button: When you are obese or have abdominal inflammation, such as adhesive tuberculous peritonitis, your belly button will become sunken.

Navel is on the left: poor gastrointestinal function, constipation or colorectal mucosal lesions should be prevented.

The navel is on the right side: pay attention to diseases such as hepatitis and duodenal ulcer.

A shallow and small belly button indicates a weak body, abnormal hormone secretion, general weakness, and poor mental state.

Round: If the belly button is a perfect circle, women are in good health and have good ovarian function; men are energetic, have normal blood pressure, and have healthy internal organs.

Sea snake shape: It is a sign of liver disease such as cirrhosis, so be careful.

Full moon shape: It looks firm and plump, and the lower abdomen is elastic. For women, it is a sign of good ovarian function.

Well, the above is an introduction to the various types of protruding belly buttons during pregnancy. After reading it, you might have never expected that there would be so many. Do you care about it? In fact, many times when we are pregnant, we should not only focus on when our child will be born, but also pay attention to a variety of health-related things, so that the child can grow better after birth!
