Protruding navel
At 26 weeks pregnant, you’re two-thirds of the way through your pregnancy and your uterus is about 2½ inches above your belly button. And speaking of your navel, have you noticed that it’s taken on a life of its own — a larger-than-life life?
A newly outie belly button may not be your idea of forward fashion, especially when you have a navel piercing or when your once innie belly button now bulges through tight clothes, but it’s de rigueur for the pregnant set. And it’s easy to understand why.

Beginning somewhere around the middle to end of your second trimester, your enlarging uterus swells enough to push your abdomen forward, making your navel pop out like a timer on a well-done turkey — even though you have a way to go before your baby is “well done.” Your belly button should revert back to its regular position a few months after delivery — though it may have that stretched-out, “lived in” look.

While you may need to take out your belly button piercing if it gets too tight, try to look on the bright side: It gives you a chance to clean out all the lint that’s accumulated there since you were a kid.
Insomnia
If a full night’s rest has become elusive, welcome to the (sleepless) world of pregnancy insomnia.
Between heartburn and leg cramps, bathroom runs and that big beach ball — with its protruding navel! — beneath your nightie, it’s no wonder your body’s having trouble calming down and drifting off.

But there are lots of tactics to try that should help keep you in bed instead of pacing the floor, including daytime exercise, a daily dose of fresh air and limiting fluids before you hit the hay.
Baby’s movements in the womb
Feel like you’re carrying the Karate Kid with all the kicking going on? Your baby is actually practicing all kinds of movements that will eventually be used in life on the outside — including pedaling against your belly, a sort of pre-walking skill.
As your baby’s nervous system becomes more developed, fetal movements will become much more coordinated. And as she gets bigger and stronger, those movements will become much more powerful…and occasionally, even painful to you. If your baby lands a good one, that tiny left hook might hurt — a lot.
Another trick she may try — stretching that leg out so far that the foot becomes lodged between your ribs. Next time you come under attack, try changing positions or doing some stretches of your own. You can also gently push your baby back with your hand when your knee-jerker jerks a little too hard. You just might be able to send your little slugger back into the corner of the ring!
