When did baby's cord fall off?

[rachelilly23]

Anyone?

K is 2 weeks old and it's still happy there. I want it to come off. It's rubbing on her clothes and leaving stains that I need to keep spraying.

The tie thing came off around 10 days but the whole thing took more than 2 weeks to come out. Maybe 2.5, definitely was all the way gone by 3 bc we did her first real bath then.

3 days. There was a tiny little piece down in the belly button that took a few days longer.

LO's took a week exactly. The hospital had said to wipe the base with rubbing alcohol 3 times a day so we had been doing that.

Somewhere between 4-6 days, but she still has some blood spots every now and then at 2 weeks. The mess is a pain, but the ped. did not say anything at her appt today, so I guess everything is good.

J is 2 weeks and a day and still has hers. It doesn't look like it's going anywhere any time soon...

C's took close to 2 weeks, it hung on by a tiny piece forever!

Her cord fell off between 2-3 weeks. It looked like it was hanging on by a thread for a few days, then finally came off.

Hanging by a thread at 2 weeks, 2 days.

[carissa325]

2 weeks tomorrow and currently hanging by a thread.

Born Tuesday and the stump fell off by Saturday.

[halfahippy]

Fell off one day shy of 2 weeks. It hung in by a thread for 3 days before finally giving up.

[sctiger]

Fell off at 12 days. My first LO took 10 days.

3 days for this LO, I think around 7 for my last. Are you doing anything special? I did nothing, gave baths as usual. 2 weeks is still normal though

[iwubrory]

DS's took forever, I think 3+ weeks, DD's was much quicker between 1-2 weeks, and this current baby is never coming out of my belly...

[adorebel]

6 or 7 days, and we didn't rub anything on it or treat it in any way.

[minae01]

2.5 weeks. No extra care done here, either.

[SheilaTheTank]

7 or 8 days. It fell off during her spinal ultrasound because she was on her tummy the entire time.

K's is looser today. Pedi said it will likely come off in the next day or 2. She was in today for her 2 week check up.

Hers took FOREVER! 3 WEEKS! And that last day it smelled so bad.

[rachelilly23]

K's ended up coming off yesterday at 15 days.
