his umbilical cord fell off can I give him a regular bath now or should I not?

I gave my daughter a bath the next day, I don't see why not

When my son belly button fell off I gave him bath I clean it with A swab with alcohol just to make sure it doesn't get infected!!

I wasn't sure with the crusties left behind. I won't be swabbing with alcohol though I was told there might be a little raw skin behind that could burn but thanks guys @mommy99630 @momof2prince

I use this

doctor told me to wait until it was completely healed after it fell off. also told me to take alcohol wipe or peroxide and wipe all the crusty part off

My son dr told me I can cause there little raw thing behind to remove it

That's optional if you want to

thanks but I won't be wiping with anything other than clean water until I know it's healed. where I can burn. clean water will be just fine @mommy99630 @maddiesmommy022916 @momof2prince

Alcohol is good to avoid infections. Water has bacteria and if not dried fully it can cause an infection

I used alcohol on my son's until it looked normal and like said before it will dry and not stay wet. I did it in the am and at night time

thanks but like I said above I will be using water until I know it's healed. @mommy99630 @thatmomlyfe16
