My son is 1 and half months old. Recntly he had gas problems as i am breasfeeding and formula feeding both. After this, his navel started to pop out. Is it a matter of concern?

No. It's due to umbilical hernia,which usually resolves itself by one year of age,and requires surgery after that if still present.
