Did you or did you not?
I am not keeping my belly button when I have my tummy tuck and I am curious who did and who didn't or who will or who won't. I'm just one of those crazy funky gals who've decided it would be great to not have one and plus...it's one less thing to heal. I hope to eventually get an awesome tattoo in it's place.
So...did you or did you not?

Well not by much of choice but I do not have a belly button u can see I don't on my pictures ...
I was mad at first because I thought how weird I would look! My hernia was far worse than we thought it had eaten all my tissue under my belly button! But I am 15 days out and so far I am not missing anything and u r so right something less to heal! I don't know if I will ever tatoo anything there in it's place or not but right now I am happy and glad I am a little different!

My PS was unable to save my belly button due to a baseball size umbilical hernia. He said that he could always make a wound to heal as a scar to resemble one, but so far, I don't miss it AT all!! I'm too old to be showing my belly anyway!! LOL!!

My surgeon is a fanatic about making a good belly button postop, so I have one. I can see why it can be easy to let it go though.. its a belly button.. get a tat like you are talking about, i think that is an awesome idea!!
Hugs, Melissa

Surgeon told me he would give me a new one. I did prefer to have one. Wuld I have been upset if he couldn't have? Yes, I think I would have. Would it have been the end of the world? No.
It's purely a personal preference. Go for whatever makes YOU happy. I can tell that's the kind of girl you are! Don't let society change you.
