Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. the child is having umbilical hernia which is very common in children and goes away by maximum 2 years of age.
with growing agfe it regresses and goes inside
it does not require any intervention or treatment before 2 years if it is non complicated.
meet your doctor once who will tell you whether any intervention or wait and watch policy is required.

do not worry.
just keep a check on weight gain and pee count of the baby..if the belly button looks bulges even after 2 months then show to the pediatrician once.
