Umbilicial cord
My little one is nearly 1 month old, their umbilical cord fell off around day 10 and they still have what looks to be a bit of the cord in their belly button.
I spoke to health visitor about this and they said it would clear up with her being bathed and dabbing it with Luke warm water. It’s been over a week since then and no difference. I can’t find anything online about this and I’m starting to worry. Does anyone have any advice? Is this normal?
If baby is not showing any discomfort I’d wait for it to come off in its own. When my baby’s fell off he bled a little and was a little fussy afterwards. Maybe still healing
