when does belly button changes start happening?

Okay please don't think I'm crazy but I went to the doctor last Tuesday and my midwife after hearing my babies heartbeat said I'm measuring big and my baby has a very strong heartbeat so she ordered a u/s. As of right now I am 11+4weeks. The month before I found out I was pregnant I had a very weird period! So weird I bought tampons and pregnancy test. So I'm thinking I was pregnant then......wont know til u/s. But anyway I've noticed for probably the past week and a half that my belly button seems wider. I didn't think to much about it til today at our Sunday family dinner when my sister asked if my belly button was already popping out when I lifted my shirt the very top of my belly button is popping out making my belly ring stick out more but even a month further along I'd be 15 weeks. Do belly button changes happen at either of these times?

mine just started poking out a few weeks and I'm 32 wks but it's just a half inny and half outty!  With my first daughter it never popped out till 2 days before I had her. So my family always says she ain't done cooking. My timer hasn't popped yet. Everyone is different, along with every pregnancy. Good luck!

There's no telling until your ultrasound. I'm 39 weeks and my belly button hasn't popped out. It's very stretched, but not popped out. Everyone's different.

My sister is actually convinced its twins but I didn't hear two heartbeats....twins run in the family but no one has had them for about 8 years. I dunno my sister mom and hubby noticed it!

I'm 15 weeks with my 2nd, and showing quite a bit (but again, this is my 2nd, you show earlier), but still verrry low. I didn't get a pushed out belly button until 30+ weeks with my son. I don't think any belly button changes are caused from pregnancy at this stage, because the baby is still a little ways below the belly button.

My belly button didn't pop out until I was 22 weeks. Maybe your having twins? Or could be carrying different then most women.
