Hernia - Causes, symptoms and treatment of a baby's umbilical hernia

An umbilical hernia is an opening of the muscles around the tummy button, or what I like to call the 'Miracle Button.' Before birth this opening generally closes but when this doesn’t happen, or the knitting together of the muscle is not strong, the organs can slip through the gap causing a mound. Newborns that are consistently crying for long periods, or feel bloated from overfeeding and not enough winding are more likely to experience hernias – I see a lot of them in my practice.
