I used to believe that if you had an operation, it had to start at the belly button. So if you had to have brain surgery...boy howdy!

I used to believe you could breathe through your belly button. I think this belief came from swimming lessons, where when I was doing the back float the teacher would say "Keep your belly out of the water" which I guess made me think my navel was like a whale's blowhole.

Me and my sisters all have sticky-innie belly-buttons and when we were all little our mum used to tell us not to pick and poke at our belly-buttons or they would come unravelled!

My sister still believed this until the age of 28 - when me and my other sister explained it was just one of those things mums say!

For years I believed that babies came out of an oven in a factory and that God pressed their tummies, like you would a cake, and pronounced "you're done" - and I had proof of this because my navel was obviously where God had prodded me! I also believed that dark skinned ladies used cocoa powder as face powder and that hill sheep were a special breed with two legs shorter than the others so that they could stand upright. Thanks, Dad!!!

When I was little I used to think you breathed out of your belly button. I wouldn't let the bath water touch it because I thought I'd stop breathing!

I was told that by one of my big sisters friends that if I played with my belly button my skin would roll off. I think perhaps she had a problem with hers in retrospect

Mummy told me that my belly button had an unlimmited amount of wool in it. When I was in the bath, why didn't I shrink?

I used to believe that if I stuck my finger in my belly button - I wouldn't be able to taste my food. So everytime I was forced to eat gross food my finger would end up in my belly button. Sometimes I still do it without thinking.

Well, this isn't mine, but I had both of my daughters convinced that I could "take" their belly buttons and give them back. The older one was 4 or 5 when she finally figured out that I was fooling.

When I was little, I had and outtie belly button. Well, my brother and my mom both told me constantly that I was a Cabbage Patch Kid, and that they had found me under a leaf of lettuce.

To add to the belly button thing. I was also told by my mom that if you messed with your belly button it would come undone and that my guts would come out. I honestly believed this until I had my first child at 18. I was observing my belly button and it was quite dirty. I called my grandma to see how I should clean it and she told me with a q tip and some rubbing alcohol. I then told her I was scared that I was going to untie my belly button. After she gathered herself from laughter, I told her it was her daughter that told me this would happen. That made it that much funnier to her. Don't worry, I clean my belly button all the time now, but this is still a family joke and usually gets brought up around the holidays. Good to know I can be the one for laughter.

I have always had an "outie" rather than an "innie" belly button and this used to upset me when I was young as I wanted to be like all of my friends who had innies. My mother told me that mine was magic and all I had to do was push the button and make a wish. So when people thought I was weird for having a sticky out belly button I used to tell them this story. (they probably thought I was even weirder then). I believed my mother though and waited patiently for all my wishes to come true.
