Has anyone had experience with giving birth with a hernia?

Hi! After my second pregnancy and birth, I developed an umbilical hernia. I'm now almost at my due date for my third baby, and the hernia is really noticeable—a big bulge under my belly button. I'm curious if anyone has experience giving birth with an umbilical hernia. Does it hurt? Does it bulge out more or what? I'd love to hear your thoughts.

    No experience, but don't your OB-GYN or midwife know that?

    I don't have any experience with it either, but I think you won't feel the tear through the contractions... At least, that's what I think.

    I also have an umbilical hernia and it often really hurts. I'd like to know if it will get worse during labor.

    Hi,
    I’m in the same boat. I’m really dreading pushing through that hernia. How did the birth go?
    Would love to hear from you
    Best wishes
