Yea I jus wish it never came.
Mine doesn't hurt at all, but I've also had it my entire life. I'm guessing it's different than a hernia that comes during a pregnancy, but lifting heavy stuff will definitely iritate it.
Really I told the doc that and she told me jus keep an eye on it. It hurts in morning at work but at end of day its okay
I have an umbilical hernia from when I was born. My doc said the only thing it will most likely do is make labor more painful due to the contractions hitting it constantly. She suggested an epidural if I can't handle the pain from it. I think you should get a medical note for work though. Lifting could definitely make it worse & you don't want that!
