Umbilical cord question...

Katelyn is a little over 1 month, her cord stump fell off at 2 weeks, however there is still a little "crust/scab" in her belly button, I mean a little, little. Is it ok to give her a regular bath? I have still been giving her sponge bath.

Thanks !

As soon as the scab fell off, I had Jared in the tub.Chat Icon

Yup as soon as it comes off you can bathe them. Don't be shy about getting the crusty stuff off - it should be healed by now.

Yup! I put Jordy in the tub right away and cleaned out the belly button with a Q-tip (as per my doc's instructions).
