Babys Belly Button- Where Cord Was Posted: 08-15-06 22:21pm
Hello,
we had our 4 week check yesterday and the
maternal health nurse said that her belly
button hasnt healed properly - its still
sticking out ad there is a red gooey lump
that pops out, I think the problem started
with g? She told me to put betadine on it
and if it doesnt clear in a week it will
need to be burnt off.
I bought betadine but the instructions
said not to use on babies under 6 mths.
Does anyone know what I can safely put on
it? Has anyone had this problem? Does
anyone know the salt water salt to water
ratio?

If the doctor advised betadine I would use
betadine.
