Re: Umbilical cord stump

it's pretty nasty but there's so much going on you don't really focus on it!

See now I was a total sap when it came to that. It was the thing that sustained the baby the entire time he was inside me.

this. Plus, the first couple of weeks are a blur and the stump falls off before you know it.

Chat Icon I'm glad I'm not the only one! I guess it will be different once it's MY baby's stump and I have to clean it etc but yes, it does give me the jeebies.

My SIL and I'm sure many other mothers save the stump when it falls off Chat Icon I'm just hoping the dogs don't eat it before I can throw it out Chat Icon

Re: Umbilical cord stump

Both of my DC's stumps fell off before we even left the hospital! I never really has to clean it or care for the area. I am a little freaked by it too. When DD's fell off on the hospital the other day, the nurse brought it to me in a bag to take home Chat Icon I was like "no thanks, we can throw that our right now". She said some people want to take it home an others have the same reaction I did.
