You always see the doctor cut the cord and then carry the baby away.
What do they do? Pull the cord? Does it just come away? Or do they cut it to shape?
I’m 26. This all makes me squeamish. Plz hlp.
In: Biology
The cord will dry out after a while and will fall off. The bellybutton is healed by then. Usually it fall off after about 10 days.
Babies get an outie if the cord wasn’t cut short enough or if the baby cried too much while it heals (they basically cry it out)
