My baby's belly button is protuting since last month. Initially it was inside but now it have come out, kindly suggest how to push in again.

It's umbilical hernia and a common condition mostly in premature babies. No need to push it in. It will automatically go when baby is 6 months-1 year. my son had it and it's cured now. There is nothing to worry at all . It's mostly as the muscle is not strong. Once baby rolls over it will start going in. Some doctors suggest surgery only to mint money. As per experts it's done only after 5 years if it's not cured
