  1. Doctor. Now.


  2. This is your baby, why are you asking us? u need to go to the doctors...  

  3. It shouldnt be bleeding.  I would take him to the doctor asap!

  4. don't take chances bring him to the doctor

  5. id go to the doctors just to check, a belly button infection can get nasty.  

  6. You should call his pediatrician. Its normal to see a little discharge or dried blood until the cord falls off.  Pinkish ooze can also be common but bright active bleeding is not. (Active bleeding is when you blot the blood and it's immediately replaced by more.) Bleeding can occur if the cord is pulled off prematurely.

  7. ive never herd of that before

    but if you ask me

    witch you did i would say go to the doctor NOW!

  8. Is normal ,my baby was having the same thing,I take him to Dr ,she says its normal ,just keep using alcohol swap to dry it after every changing diaper ,keep the diaper away from it ,and KEEP IT DRY ,but if you smell not good or their is some gray stuff coming out <you must take him to his Dr
