Bilateral Inguinal Hernia [37week M infant]

I had my baby last week via c-section at 36w2d due to a vasa previa.

At his first pediatric appointment they told us he has a bilateral inguinal hernia and referred us to a pediatric surgeon.

He currently only weighs 5 lbs 11 oz… is this too soon or too small to perform surgery to fix the hernia?

The appointment with the surgeon is next week but I am just worried he is too small to do it yet.

Any thoughts?
