How long does the umbilical cord fall off? How to care for umbilical cord of newborn

After the baby is born, the umbilical cord is still in the state of not falling, so how long does the newborn expect to fall off? What should novice parents pay attention to when nursing?

After the cord was cut, the remnant of the cord gradually dried up and thinned, and finally the scar fell off. When does the umbilical cord fall off normally? Generally speaking, the umbilical cord naturally shrivels in 24-48 hours after birth, begins to fall off in 7-10 days, and heals itself in 10-15 days.

However, the time of umbilical cord falling off will vary according to the situation of the baby, generally falling off in the first to second weeks after birth.

Three principles should be followed in the care of the baby's umbilical cord:

First, keep dry. Keep the umbilical cord dry before it falls off, especially wet the root of the umbilical cord when bathing, wipe it with a clean cotton stick first, and then carry out cord care.

Second, avoid friction. The size of diapers should be appropriate. Do not make the waist of diapers just at the root of the umbilical cord, so that when the baby moves, it is easy to rub against the root of the umbilical cord, resulting in redness and even bleeding.

Third, avoid sultry heat. Never use the cream, emulsion and oil to smear the roots of the umbilical cord, so that the umbilical cord is not easy to dry or even cause infection.
