With the progress of the times, of course, our age is also advancing. Time flies by in a blink of an eye. Unconsciously, some post-80s have become the age of being parents. At the beginning, post-80s boys still play and have fun all day long. Now, post-80s boys have to bear the burden of a small family and become fathers, while girls also have to bear the troubles of a small family. As mothers, they feel happy and conflicted about having a baby. They don't know how to take good care of their child, and the baby will have many problems, such as the newborn's belly button not falling off after 25 days.
What's wrong with a newborn's belly button not falling off after 25 days
This is due to various reasons: when doctors cut the umbilical cord, keeping it long makes it less likely to dry out and fall off; Babies wear more clothes in cold weather and are less likely to dry out; Do not soak in water or take a bath, as it is not easy to dry when in contact with water. Be sure to observe your baby's umbilical cord and use hospital prepared medicine to wipe it every morning and evening until it reaches the root of the umbilical cord (the baby will not feel pain, and the mother should not be soft). Only in this way can the umbilical cord not be infected. If the baby's umbilical cord is red or has discharge, it is important to see a doctor in a timely manner.
