When I was little, my grandmother told me that my belly button is where all my skin was tied into a knot. I took her seriously and for almost a year I wouldn't touch my belly button, wash too close to my belly button in the bath, all in fear that if I touched it the "knot"/belly button would come undone, and all of my skin would fall off.

I used to believe that kids were born out of the bellybutton. I mean, that was the only logical explaination for why the bellybutton was on my stomach! Plus, my mom had a C-section n' told me how she had to get my brother taken out from there (and pointed to her stomach by her bellybutton) so what was I supposed to think!

I used to think that your whole stomach was called a belly button, and that your whole midsection was part of it.

I once believe that if I poke my belly button it will become wider as I grow older, even my sister tells me that. But then, I notice out that it still has the same size just from before. Lol

I remember being told that if I dug deep enough into my belly-button I would find loads of great toys to play with. I fully believed this and remember having a good digging session in my belly-button.

I never did find anything :(
I guess they were lying.
