Dear doctor. I have two children whom were both born by c-section. After my second son was born I had an operation to correct severe diastasis recti AND an umbilical hernia. Mesh was used to fix the hernia. I would very much like to fall pregnant again AND both the surgeon AND my gynecologist have said this is ok, However the surgeon did say that there was a 40% chance of the hernia reoccuring so that I would need to repeat this operation after the next c-section. I am however worried that the pregnancy would be painful because of the net AND wondered what you would advise AND whether you are familiar with post hernia pregnancies. Thank you,

שלום גיל אכן נכון יש סיכון לבקע טבורי חוזר בעת ההריון . אבל הרשת לא גורמת לכל הפרעות בעת ההריון . כך שאין צורך לחשוש ובאם יהייה בקע חוזר ניתוח קטן ופשוט יתקן זאת
