belly button scab

Hi Ladies!!

Just wondering how long it took for your LO to lose his/her belly button scab. My LO is 12 days old and still has it - they told me it would fall off between 7-10 days. I just feel bad every time I get it stuck on something :-(

It took about 2weeks this time. It fell off in 1week with my first. I'm sure it will come off soon!

Our little one lost his when he was a week old. I dont think you have anything to worry about. I am sure it will fall off soon enough.

She was 6 days old. Dd1 was 10 days old. It will come off soon, I imagine.

My baby's fell off at 5 days, the nurse would sprinkle bnt powder on it every other day to help it heal so I brought one I think it dried it faster.

DDs just fell off yesterday at 7 days. It was pretty gross and gooey and kind of freaked me out, but I've just kept it dry.

My LO's feel off on day 21. A week after at his 1 month appt. his pediatrician applied silver nitrate to help it dry up faster because the area was still moist despite us still not giving himd tub baths yet at that point.
