What Causes Pain In Umbilicus During Pregnancy?
I am 29 weeks preganant and i had a conern with my belly button. My belly button has been popped out troughout my pregnancy but but until 3 or 4 days ago i have intense pain that comes and goes to that area , it is extremly sensative, and it is now pueple as well. Before i was able to push my belly button inward with no pain or discomfort, now i cant even do that...all i feel is a lump and it hurts when i apply any kind os pressure, brush it against something , or i even get pain to the area while i am sleeping. Is this normal?

Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
You seem to be having umbilical hernia, which is the protrusion of abdominal content through the umbilicus or belly button, due to its weakness.
I will suggest you to consult an OBGYN specialist to get properly examined, investigated and treated accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
