Okay mamas I’m kind of stressing 😭 Did anyone else’s baby’s umbilical cord fall off at only 3 days old?? Azalea’s already did and I wasn’t expecting it that fast at all. There’s no fever or redness, but I’m still nervous because it seems so early. Is this normal?? Please tell me I’m not the only one

my sons came off at 5 days! i would think it’s not too early so long as it doesn’t look infected and it didn’t get pulled off. you could always call the pediatrician and ask if you are super worried

Oh ya! My sons fell off I think three days after

My daughters came off before a week. It looks great! Just keep an eye out for infection and after baths make sure it’s dried really good

They really just give the two-week timeframe as a precaution, just to allow time for it to dry and heal. But as long as it stays dry and there’s no redness or oozing, your baby should be totally fine. Both of my babies lost theirs at 4 days. (Yours looks good to me)

I still waited the full two weeks before giving real baths though, just to avoid any chance of moisture getting into an unsealed area. Only did rag/wipe baths until then

Yup my baby stomp just popped off at 5 days don’t stress yourself

Yes! It was totally fine ❤️
Anyone else had a backache and sore boobs at almost 38 weeks? I’m hoping it’s the start of labour and my waters or something go soon I’m so uncomfortable and the thought of another week and half is just too much ( my elective is booked bur I don’t mind going earlier if Labour happens naturally )

So I’m only 11 weeks as of Friday and I’m just already excited to meet my baby though I know it’s still so far off. I have my son already and since I’ve had a baby before I feel like I’m less scared this time since I know what to expect and am just more excited. I also keep seeing tiny newborns when I’m out and about and I’m like omg they are so cute and tiny I can’t wait to hold mine lol. Anyone feeling this already? Anyone also on their second baby? I know the gender and we already have his name so it just feels so real already
