Lump in tummy

Everyone is worrying me about this small lump in my 13 month old girls tummy! Can anyone tell me if this is normal please? She is my first so not sure what’s normal or not! I’m making a doctors appointment tomorrow morning as I’m now worried! Thank you.

That looks like a hernia .

Try not to worry too much, your Doctor is the best person to advise you as it's unlikely that a lot of random answers from internet people given a small photo will be any help.
If she's comfortable and eating/pooing then no immediate danger.

It's a hernia. My son has the exact same one. The doctor said it would close over but it still hasn't and he is 12.
