has anyones babies cord got snagged?): the hospital told me not to clean around it with alcohol or…

aww at the doctor office they have some stuff that makes it dry faster but yes you should of been putting alcohol on it every diaper change.

@mrs.oliva the hospital told me it causes rashes on the skin ): wish i didn't listen to them and just listened to my mom!

that's weird cause hospitals tell u too do it to get a swab and squeeze some drop on the umbilical cord.

ugh i shouldn't have listened to them. is it normal that they unclipped it before he left too? @mrs.oliva

my babies did but i just left it alone. i

yes thats normal they take off the little clip.

the hospital never told me to do that with the alcohol.

aww I have 4 kids also.

you supposed to tug at it a little bit. her doctor told me to do like north south east and west with it lol. not like pulling hard but just a little it helps it fall off. he also gave me alcohol pads to use on it. your fine girl just start doing all the things we just mentioned and it will be fine :)

The hospital told me to clean my son's with alchol.

I think it's crazy how doctors and nurses all have different methods for things like this. Like i was told not to touch it don't use alcohol either. Our bodies naturally reject things. I personally would def not tug on it tho. It's going to fall off its only a matter of time til it does let it do it's things naturally

@regelbaby, agreed

my doctor told Me to just leave it alone and don't put alcohol on it. and hers fell off after 2 and a half weeks.
