LO will be three weeks old on Saturday and still has his cord stump! It's starting to separate but I think we have a few days yet. When did your LO lose his/hers?
-
It was before she was a week old...maybe 4-5 days.
-
10 days old..and it fell off too early (wasn't completely dry at all), and oozed and bled and stuff. I had to take her in to have it cauterized.
-
Right around 10 days, just after her photos, of course!
-
Day 6 or so? It's been bleeding a bit though and the ped said to come in to cauterize if that lasts a week...
-
At 9 days. Likely sped along by the fact that the pediatrician cauterized the stump with silver nitrate at our appointment.
-
It took forever. Maybe it was 4 weeks? I can barely remember.
-
2 weeks later.
-
Just after 2 weeks
-
14 days.
-
10 days, I totally knocked it off accidently!
-
A really long time... shortly after four weeks?
-
Six days.
-
6 days
-
2 weeks to the day.
-
3-4 weeks. felt like forever!
-
Just about 4 weeks. Seemed like forever!
-
3 weeks!
-
3 or 4 weeks. Our pedi put something on it to help it fall off because it was bleeding a little too. Silver something...
-
5.5 weeks!
-
It was about a week!
-
Maybe a week or just over? It was before my husband went back to work and he was home for 12 days.
-
10 days ish. We never found it.
-
@aprk: Oh my gosh... the cord stump is the only thing about babies that really kind of creeps me out. To have it fall off and know it might still be somewhere in my house, just being all gross for me to stumble over in the dark one day or something would be seriously disturbing. haha
-
@Sapphiresun: haha. A lot of people say that! It never creeped me out. I bet our dog found it
-
18 days
-
5 days. I may have cried because I wasn't ready for it yet... Lol
-
At 7 days old.
-
@MrsRoo: ha same! His fell off the day after our photos.
-
We are 3 w 2 d and she still has it. The doctor picked at it today and said it should hopefully come off soon but definitely still attached.
-
She was 7 days old.
-
3 weeks!
-
Around ten days. Then the scab just fell off yesterday at 2 1/2 weeks.
-
4 weeks. I didn't think it was ever going to fall off
-
Around two weeks, I believe.
-
I actually just went to change her and it had fallen off!! So she made it 3 w 2 d.
-
1 week exactly! I cried. He seemed so much older.
-
I think it was almost 2 weeks.
-
@TurtleDoves: I cried too! I wasn't ready for it yet, I thought it would be another week. I was so dramatic - "My baby is growing up too fast!"
-
I think DS was 12 days old. It was a little wet so we used some alcohol swabs to keep it clean and to help it dry up.
