Numb skin around belly button...

[Jelinifer]

Anyone else get this? I'm 33 weeks and stretched to the max. My skin hasn't ever gotten to the point of hurting, but I realized the other day that the skin in the 1-2 inches around my belly button is slightly numb to the touch- like how your fingers get after holding ice for too long.... and has been now since then. I'm more perplexed than concerned about this since I've never heard of it happening to anyone else before.

Happened to me my first pregnancy. My midwives said it was quite common and that sensation would most likely return. It did.

And now, at 26 weeks, its happening a bit again. Its a skin stretching, nerve endings thing. Nothing to be worried about, but it is totally weird, isn't it?! It totally freaked me out and felt so so bizarre. Like someone had gotten me with a numbing drug in these little spots.
