I have a lump that is above and to the side of my belly button. What could it be?

It's hard I can only feel it by prodding my belly it can't bee seen from the outside only felt. It does go back further when pressed hard it seems smooth not jagged and the area is tender to prod. I have lots of stretch marks after 3 children.
