Babies: 3 - 6 Months

cleaning baby's bellybutton

Do you clean your baby's bellybutton?  If so, how do you clean it and how often?  I noticed that my LO's bellybutton has some dead skin and such in it, and I'm wondering if I should get a q-tip to clean it during his bath.

    My baby is almost four months old and I noticed the same thing in hers. I just grabbed a baby wipe and wiped gently until it came clean.

    I check DS's belly button periodically at bathtime and clean it out with the washcloth.  Afterwards, when we're drying off I'll check it again and use a qtip to get any extra lint or icky stuff out of it that the washcloth didn't get.
