umbilical hernia

SillyMe80

I have had one for a while, but this pregnancy has made it bigger. I am almost 38 weeks and I would say it is close to golf ball size and it hurts. I don't think I can push it back in, but I am not sure if it is from the baby being so big or if it is incarcerated.

Ouch, I have that too... but mine is not sticking out very far. I'm not sure if it's because I also have polyhydramnios which makes my belly all around more giant, but it is definitely very tender. If it hurts like the dickens you may want to call your doctor to check it out to make sure nothing vital is protruding out.

Has your OB been monitoring its size? I would think one the size of a golf ball might be dangerous.

I just spoke with the OB about it. They said I should wait til after my c section to see what happens
