I just got a call from a client who informed me that at her prenatal visit with her midwife yesterday, the midwife did an internal and found what she thought was a hernia. I asked her for more specifics but she couldn't remember. She was wondering if she did have a hernia would that make labor or pushing more difficult or more painful. I didn't have a good answer for her and said I'd ask around. Anyone have any experience with this? Thanks for any info you can give me.
