Does this look normal for belly button healing or does it look infected? She is 3 weeks 4 days old.

Question

Answer

Normal. My little one unfortunately ended up with an infection and hers looked pretty gross and even then the doctor said it looked normal the only indicator is redness around it so as long as that isn’t happening it’s fine

Answer

It looks ok to me..when did it fall off? If it barely fell off give it a few days and if theres discharge after that there’s an over the counter antibiotic ointment you can put on it.

Answer

Use a qtip and put some Vaseline or aquaphor whatever you have and put a small amount on the belly button. My baby’s doctor recommended that to us, because we had a similar situation. It worked in 1 day.

Answer

If it doesn’t have an odor or feel warm to the touch, it should be fine.  My LO’s umbilical cord fell off nearly 2 weeks ago and is still a little irritated looking.
