Belly button is it normal?

Question

my baby lost his belly button 2 days ago and today it was bleeding is this normal

Answer 1

yes once the baby looses the stump, there is still raw skin under it so it will heal in a few days. just try to keep it clean with warm water and a cotton ball once daily

Answer 2

A small amount of blood is perfectly normal especially if it falls off before the textbook normal of two weeks.  If there is ever profuse bleeding apply pressure and contact your doctor. You may even notice a small amount of old brown blood which is normal as well.  Enjoy now giving your baby a tub bath.
