Umbilical hernia? Or belly button about to pop?

Question

So this is probably a super stupid question, but this is my first baby and the way my belly button looks is seriously stressing me out 🤦🏻‍♀️ does this look normal if it is about to pop out? Or does it look like a possible umbilical hernia? I can still push it back in and the whole thing is just new and weird to me and i feel like i need a 2nd set of eyes/opinions... please help!!? 😬

Answer

It probably is a hernia. But it may not be a problem at all, or it could be, you won't know until after the birth. Mine wasn't an issue until after my most recent pregnancy. It never went down, hurt, and caused digestive issues,  so I had to have surgery. But before then it went back and didn't bother me at all, then you don't need to have it fixed.

Answer

Totally normal to pop out. It won’t stay the same generally, but with most parts of your body during pregnancy...stuff rarely goes back to the way it was.

Answer

You won’t know for sure until baby is out. I end up with one after my son this was 11 years ago. I still haven’t fixed it. I will soon.
