Parents can be said to show meticulous care for their children, observing every part of their baby's body and even the most insignificant places very carefully, fearing that missing any inconspicuous position will neglect the baby's health. Now let's see how big the baby is without protruding belly button?
After birth, the belly button is the first wound in a baby's life, characterized by congenital weakness. When a baby coughs, sneezes, or even cries, it can cause an increase in intra-abdominal pressure, leading to the appearance of umbilical hernia protrusion.
When the baby is in a quiet or lying state, the protruding intestines will return to the abdominal cavity on their own, and the lump protruding from the navel will disappear on its own. As the baby grows older, their abdominal muscles also continue to develop and improve, and the hernia hole will shrink until it closes. The phenomenon of umbilical hernia will naturally disappear.
If the child's umbilical hernia problem is relatively small, the hernia hole below 2 centimeters can be treated without the need. Generally, babies will recover on their own when they reach 6-8 months old. If the umbilical hernia is relatively large or the treatment effect is not good for the baby, it is best to go to the hospital for surgical treatment. Generally, this surgery is not painful and does not cause gastrointestinal dysfunction.
Some parents are obedient to their children in order to prevent them from crying, but if they indulge their children for a long time, it will have varying degrees of impact on their physical and mental development. Parents must pay attention to the way they educate their children.
