I'm six weeks today. And its not big. It pops out every once in awhile. Thank you for the advice. I am definitely going to talk to my doctor about it.

Hi, how many weeks are you? and how big is the defect? It may not pose a problem in pregnancy, but you should discuss this with your doctor, based on the size of the defect and the contents of the hernia, she will be able to advise you. Take care.
