Just wipe gently around the base of the stump. It will fall off by around a week after birth and should not cause baby any distress at all. If u see any bleeding however, bring baby to PD.
The portion where umbilical cord falls off will be slightly darker. Just clean gently and regularly. No need to touch as it will fall of by itself naturally
mine have a little bit blood/wound after it fell off, but that is what the alcohol swab for, just clean it everytime after bath, it will dried nicely
It is slightly darker than the skintone. It will dry off and fall gradually so don't worry about it
