stupid question ..

This might sound stupid but I'm a first time mom and I''ll be 34 weeks Saturday. I have no stretchmarks besides one on the skin where I had my belly button done and I can believe how sore and tender it is, it's purple ish and I'm so nervous of the skin tearing .. can this happen?

It won't tear don't worry. I got a funny line right where my belly button ring was also. And after you have baby it will lighten up over time and not be so purple.
