The navel has a different meaning for each mother. That's a bond between mothers and children.

When the baby was born and the doctor helped cut the umbilical cord, the child began a journey of growing alone.

However, there is a problem that often plagues parents. The child's belly button is dirty. Can you pick it up? How should I take care of it?

The navel is actually a \"scar\"
