After the clamp has been removed, newborns remain with a small stump on their belly button, which dries, shrinks, and hardens over time. It usually falls off after 10-14 days. The underlying skin will mostly be healed; however, it can feel rough or still leak a little liquid. Continue cleaning the area daily and use the umbilical cord care tips to keep your newborn infant safe. Contact the midwife if you notice an unusual smell or spot other signs of infections in the area around the stump.

Gina, MS, & Roxanne, RN, BSN on Instagram: "Umbilical cord care tip! 

Comment NEWBORN for the link to our newborn prep course or join us inperson Sept 15 1130am @mamastefit_nc 

Umbilical core care has changed in the past 10 years or so from using the alcohol pad to clean it, to now we just leave it alone! This has been shown to not increase infection rates but leads to the cord falling off faster! 

Edit: if the cord is visibly dirty you can clean it but otherwise don’t need to wash or clean it! 

This can be hard to do with some diapers! So our trick is to fold it down in the front till it falls off! (This can take 7-14days!)

Some diapers have a cut out in the front to accommodate the umbilical cord stump, but not all diaper brands!
