One year old - umbilical hernia

Chrissy

Hey all!

My one year old has an umbilical hernia. Shes had it since she came home from the hospital. She was a preemie and had an umbilical line in for almost 3 weeks, which caused it.

We are on a waiting list to see a pediatric surgeon, referred by her pediatrician, but this has me worried cause its looking a bit bulged again, after it had flattened out for a bit..

Anybody gone through this?
