Upstate NY Babies

Talk to me about umbilical hernias.

Julia has a slight umbilical hernia and nobody except me seems to be concerned. The pedi said they almost always correct themselves within the first year and only a small percentage need surgery. The shriveled up part hasn't fallen off yet, so I'm not sure how it's going to look.

Has anybody had experience with this? What was the outcome? JnK - I remember you saying something about having that surgery done when you were 4, right?
