Oh no...hernia!

We just found out on Friday that Noelle has a hernia. Friday night Noelle was crying hysterically, which is unusual for her. When changing her diaper we found a big lump. As frantic parents, we started calling the after hours clinic. In the meantime the lump went away but the crying continued. The nurse said it's probably not a big deal but take her to emergency anyway. In the emergency room the lump popped back out and they immediately told us it's a hernia.

Saturday morning we took her to her pediatrician and she said that it'll go in and out and it's probably not in need of immediate repair. She referring us to a pediatric surgeon to get it fixed. Poor Noelle will need to have surgery to fix it. Mom also had to have the same surgery when she was a baby.
