What Does Unexpected Weight Loss After Child Birth?

4 months ago I delivered a 9pd baby and immediately got the tublization procedure done. I have lost extremely a lot of weight but on top of my belly button it seems like a pooch. When I press it feels weird. Would it be the begging of a heirna? Thank you Ms Gomez

Hello,

After you give birth is normal to lose weight, most of it is excess water. You can send me how much you lost to see if it is normal or not.

Also, a bulky stomach is normal but an examination from a doctor can see if it is from hernia or just fat.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
