I had a small umbilical hernia even before and now in 3rd trimester it looks more bulgy near my belly button. Doc said wait kar lo for now. Does it go back on its own after delivery? anyone with same experience?
I had thyroid during my pregnancy so I was already on regular doctor follow-ups. When I had belly button pain, I made sure my doctor checked it every month. Keep a constant check with your doctor postpartum too, health should be first priority.
I have this exact same query! I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and my navel is popping out and it thoda pain also does. Does it actually require surgery later or can we use belts?
Dekho, delivery ke baad belly muscles loose ho jati hain toh lagta hai hernia hai. Jyadatar ye apne aap thik ho jata hai, bass thoda time do. But heavy weight uthana bilkul band kar do abhi se, warning samajh lo ye meri.
Honestly, don't stress about it right now. It is incredibly common due to all that extreme stretching. Wear supportive maternity belts, don't lift heavy things, and let your body heal postpartum first.
According to my doctor, umbilical hernias can sometimes happen due to abdominal pressure during pregnancy. If it's small, it often resolves on its own within a few months postpartum as muscles heal. But if it stays painful or doesn't go back, a minor surgical fix might be needed later.
I developed a small bump near my belly button in the 3rd trimester and I felt so scared that it would stay forever. After delivery, the belly shape shifted back and it almost disappeared on its own, though it took some months. I felt so relieved!
Hernia is something you should never ignore or self-diagnose. Please show it to your gynac in your next visit. They will check if it's actually hernia or just muscle separation and advise safety steps.
Bacha, load mat lo bilkul bhi. It is just your body adjusting to the growing baby. It usually gets better after delivery on its own. Just ensure you are not straining yourself while sitting or standing, ok?
