I was told to put rubbing alcohol on this to help it heal ?!?! I NEED HELP !!! Baby keeps trying to…

You just wipe it around the base of the cord

With what and how ?

I don't wanna mess up lol

Use a q-tip much easier than a alcohol pad

Where on the thing would I rub it

You don't use alcohol... You only use water, alcohol makes it longer for it to heal.

@daij, The first thing the hospital tells you is do not wet it with water. Alcohol actually helps it heal faster because alcohol will dry it out. You dip a q tip on alcohol and just clean the area

The hospital didn't tell Jai or I anything about it , pisses me off that would have been good to know

@gjenner93, I was told to used water maybe every hospital tells you different things.

The hospital didn't tell us anything about her belly button
