I Feel a Bit Ripped Off
My wife is 37+ weeks pregnant. My wife's belly has a 6+ lbs. baby inside of it. Yet my wife's belly button remains an "innie."
When the baby books I read warned that not all expectant mother's belly buttons turn from innies to outies, I shrugged if off. Of course baby books have to say that, just as they say that my child might not ever cry or fuss for more than a minute. They have to cover all bases.
I was all excited for my wife to pop an outtie, but we're running out of time. I don't think it's going to happen. It's not just sad, but a little disconcerting, too. If her belly button doesn't pop out, how will I know the baby's done cookin'?

Yeah, sorry -- I rocked the innie throughout both pregnancies. And God knows it's not because I didn't gain enough weight.
