When I was about 5 I remember having a huge argument with one of my friends. The topic? Where babies came from. You see, at that time, I firmly believed that babies came out of your belly button. My friend’s theory was a little more … graphic. In my defense, the baby lived in the belly, there was a belly button whole that didn’t seem to have much other use (aside from lint collection) so it made sense.
Well… ever since my belly started growing, my belly-button started shrinking. I don’t have a “before” picture, but here’s an after:
Now, how’s a baby going to come out of this I ask?
At this rate, I’ll be minus a belly button by the time we’re done. Or does it pop-out like the turkey thermometer when it indicates I’m done baking?
On a side note, here’s a belly pic from this past Saturday. 26 weeks and growing!
P.S. In my mother’s defense, I will say that I was well educated on how babies GOT there. I just must have skipped/ignored/psychologically blocked-out how they got OUT.
