7 weeks umbilical hernia

Lacey

My twins are 7 weeks today and about a week ago this gigantic hernia popped out on my son. He doesn’t appear to be in any pain but I’m certain the doc is gonna say he needs surgery to fix it. His pediatrician referred us to a pediatric surgeon and said he wasn’t in pain from it and that it’s a good sign that you can push it in and she would only be worried if you couldn’t push it in. He’s pooping normal and has normal bowel sounds. The earliest they could get us scheduled is December 3rd and it feels like an eternity from now. Has anyone been through this?
