Can navel enlargement cause any problems?
Question
My 45-day-old son makes a funny "ho-ho" sound while feeding as well sleeping. Is it normal? Also, for the past two weeks I feel that his navel is becoming large. Will this lead to any problem?

The sound appears normal, but the navel enlargement at 45 days is not. Does it remain all the time? Does the size change with feeding? Are any sounds heard from the enlargement? There is no information included in your query and perhaps as a safety measure, it may be advisable to see your child's paediatrician. You have to do so anyway because your baby is due for his next shots.
