The doctor says it should go away by the time he is 2 (and if it doesn't, he might need surgery...) as his internal organs grow and strengthen. Perhaps it is similar with yours! So don't despair yet!<BR/><BR/>Well- I just read the rest of the comments and it seems that you already determined that! So good news!<BR/><BR/>Hope you and Adam are well- we sure enjoy hanging out with your sister and nieces and nephews out here! :) (We call them our cousins because, in fact, they are!

She seemed rather nonchalant about it and seemed to think it would start looking normal in a few more months. <BR/><BR/>Marie, I can't believe you've actually had belly button surgery! You're so hip!

For the record, I'm the only person I know who's had an umbilical hernia, and my whole family is just very hernia-prone. At age 7 I had an inguinal hernia, and two other immediate family members have had hernias as well, so it's almost certainly genetic.

I'm guessing the surgery is low-risk, so that might be the best option. I had an uncle who had the surgery because he was to embarrassed to take his shirt off when he went swimming. I was about 6 eyars old when he had the surgery, and I prayed in church that he could have his belly button operated on safely. I didn't know why everyone laughed.CACKELhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02560198221739473197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702380.post-239666140738501872007-04-25T11:28:00.000-07:002007-04-25T11:28:00.000-07:00Can you get an outie bellybutton pierced?Can you get an outie bellybutton pierced?coolbeanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10574277376377362824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10702380.post-68330843958806755752007-04-25T08:01:00.000-07:002007-04-25T08:01:00.000-07:00My youngest has an innie barely, it pops out when ...My youngest has an innie barely, it pops out when he eats a lot of food at a meal.
