Is it normal for the umbilical cord stump to smell? I accidentally got it wet sponge bathing my baby and now it has a bad smell to it. Has anyone experienced this? If so, what to do? It really has me worried
@caseyebell, when it's about to fall off, it will smell the worst. my daughter's bought made me sick every time I took her onsie off. it worried me as well so I asked her doctor. he said it's perfectly normal because "after all it is rotting flesh" lol
