May I ask how do you take care of newborn's umbilical cord during bath time. Can umbilical cord touch water during bath time? How to clean it? Also, after the umbilical cord drops, how do you take care of the wound?

Oh I bathed my little one as per normal even with the umbilical cord. It did touch water a little. I avoided the area while soaping, and dabbed it dry after the bath. I cleaned it with a moist cotton ball (just warm water) and let it dry. Even after the cord fell off, while there were still some scabs, I continued to clean it with the damp cotton ball daily, till everything had fallen off. Everyone has their own style I guess.
