TRUTH— No

Although some Grannies and Aunties can swear by this method, but scientifically it just doesn’t seem possible. :

The shape of your little human’s belly button, by the way, has nothing to do with how the cord was cut or anything else you or your doctor did.

It's simply a result of how your baby's umbilical cord met her belly, and there's nothing you can or should do to change it.

There is one instance in which a LH’s protruding belly button might settle down on its own.

If the LH has a bulging belly button because of an umbilical hernia. These bulges can occur when the cord area doesn't close completely right after birth.

Umbilical hernias don't usually hurt or cause any problems, and they often go away by the time the baby is 12 to 18 months old. But if the cord area doesn't close on its own before a child is 3 or 4yrs, it might require surgery.
