PLACING A COIN ON A PROTRUDING BELLY BUTTON HELPS IT POP BACK IN

-

A protruding belly button is usually caused by a defect in the wall of your baby’s abdomen and is also known as an umbilical hernia. It is not due to the doctor pulling or cutting the cord at birth. The protrusion should disappear by the time your child is one year old.
