Hernia while pregnant?

Question

So I guess I have a hernia, a few weeks ago I told my midwife about the pain I was having about 4 inches above my belly button.. It gets tender to the touch and is very painful sometimes, but not all the time. My midwife informed me it was probably a hernia.... Today it is very painful, even to stand. Anyone else going through this? Or had this???

Answer

I actually was supposed to have a hernia surgery when I found out I was pregnant with my second, I went though my whole pregnancy fine, minor pain here and there, prior to finding out I was pregnant I was a someway mild to severe pain, but it went away,  I kept away from spicy food which in my case seemed to make my pain worse!

I had my baby and forgot all about till now that I see this and I'm in my 3rd pregnancy now and no pain from that at all.

What my doctor told me then was that this kind of hernia is very comun and that most people go on without evern knowing they have it, unless it's very painful they don't do surgeries.

Answer

I am having those same symptoms! I was just assuming it was baby pushing on that spot or something because it felt harder in this one spot when it hurt. But only sometimes so idk.
