Is it normal for your baby’s belly button to bleed a few days after they lost their umbilical cord?!

I called in and they said it should be OK as long as it’s not bleeding a lot and we had our one week check up today and they had to cauterize his belly button because it was bleeding a little bit more than they wanted but everything was fine!!

Yes

@ashleea9898, yeah I’m gonna call first thing in the morning, thank you!!

@kpost, I think he's fine but if you want some peace of mind & make sure he's fine then I would call the doctor (:

@ashleea9898, ok, it’s been like 3 days so I was getting concerned but it’s just a little bit of blood on his onsie and he seems fine. I just don’t remember my daughters ever bleeding.

Mines bled for like one day & I called the doctor & they said it was normal as long as it wasn't gushing out blood or puss .
