six week old with red belly button? Help
The worry wart is back. My DD's belly button healed perfectly at around 2 weeks old. At her 1 month appt. the dr. cleaned out her belly button a little with alcohol, and said it looked perfect. Last night, and today, I noticed it looked a little red. I applied a little alcohol with a q-tip.
I know all the books say to call your dr. if its red - but
1. are they talking about right when it falls off, or ever - I never heard of anyone having issues so late
and 2. can this wait til monday morning or should I call the emergency line?
TIA
Oh, and DD doesn't seem to be any discomfort at all.
