A. the child is having umbilical hernia which is very common in children and goes away by maximum 2 years of age.c with growing age 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.

A. Hello dear parent! Can be umbilical hernia. Without proper physical examination it is not possible to understand the condition. Get your baby personally examined by your doctor and seek medical advice. Good luck and take care
