the bottom of my belly? I've been hit by stretch marks pretty hard, and for a little while I'd assumed the knot was just part of that, but I've spent a decent bit of time poking at it and trying to figure out what it was and now I'm not so sure.

It's firmer than the rest of the skin arount it, which is oddly kind of saggy and soft. I guess having my belly stretched to the max does not negate that little pooch of fat bellow my belly button. Anyways, it's tender and just right of center, and feels (i'm not sure how to describe it, really) thicker. I don't have a clue what it is. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I briefly thought that maybe it was a hernia, but it doesn't feel like it's full of fluid, and I don't think that's possible.

My next appointment's on tuesday, and seeing as my son is acting normal and I'm not bleeding or having any other run-to-the-dr symptoms I think it can wait until then. I just wonder what it could be.
