I had a hernia in my belly botton when i was two years old and now i want to know if i can have a baby without anything bad happening?

No worries. : A prior umbilical hernia repair as an infant should not impact your decision to have a baby. While you may be at risk for a hernia recurrence, this can easily be repaired at a later time (if necessary).
