Taking care of your newborn's umbilical cord stump is crucial for their well-being. To ensure a healthy healing process, it is important to keep the area clean and dry. Gently clean the stump with a cotton swab dipped in warm water and mild soap, ensuring no moisture remains. Avoid covering the stump with tight diapers to allow air circulation. Dress your baby in loose clothing to prevent rubbing and irritation. Keep an eye out for any signs of infection such as redness, swelling, or pus, and consult your pediatrician immediately if you notice anything abnormal. By following these simple steps, you can ensure a smooth healing process for your baby's umbilical cord stump.
