Hernia above belly button...?

Hello ladies. I am 19 weeks and a FTM. I started noticing a bulge about 1.5 - 2 in wide above my belly button. It has definitely gotten worse and larger over the past couple of weeks. I also started noticing it hurting and throbbing when it becomes irritated from me laughing, or moving weird, and even dancing or exercising. After NYE, and me dancing quite a bit, it was hurting pretty bad and has been very sore for the past day. My husband thinks it could be a hernia but that is not a medical professionals opinion. I have an appt in a week so I plan to ask my dr then but thought I would see if anyone else has experienced something like this...?

  • I don't have any experience but would suggest calling your dr before your scheduled appointment in case they want to see you earlier. Hope you feel better soon!

  • My OB diagnosed me with a hernia at my last appointment. Mine is a slightly bulged belly button with a bigger pocket underneath. I'm wearing a support belt 24/7 with full panel underwear, full panel pants, and a tight tank top. Takes the edge off and keeps it protected. I would call your doctor so you can get checked. Hope you feel better soon.

  • Sounds exactly like my hernia.  I have had with my last two pregnancies also.  Hurts a ton when pregnant but don't notice it when I am not.
