Care of the umbilical cord


The umbilical cord was, what kept our baby joined us while we loaded in the belly, and where you spend much of the food once the baby is born. We have some care to heal properly, thus preventing complications.

When diapering your child, fold and place them below the navel so that we avoid the urine comes into contact and wet, you may find the early days several drops of blood when the cord falls off cordoncito, or is about to do. Do not worry because it is completely normal.
