Take care to the stump of an umbilical cord
It is important to not pick at the stump after it has been born. You may notice a reddish, scaly or yellowish liquid erupting from the stump. This is normal and will disappear in about a week. If your baby experiences any of these symptoms, please contact your doctor immediately. The stump may be infected so don't touch it. Bleeding may be another sign to get medical attention.
You can wash your baby's skin with water after giving birth to stop any bleeding. Make sure the cleanser is marketed as pH-neutral. Ask your pharmacist to recommend a product. Let the baby's bath dry thoroughly. You should also protect the area using plastic nappies or pants. For the first few days, avoid touching the area with your naked hands as this could exacerbate the infection.

Take care of your baby's skin
You're likely wondering what to do for your baby's skin if you're a first-time parent. Newborn skin is very delicate and fragile. The sun's UV radiations can cause skin irritation, and the chemical residue in nappies or saliva can also cause irritation. The best way to protect your baby’s skin is to use baby skincare products. Your baby should have gentle skin that is suitable for their age.
A newborn baby's skin is fragile and can be easily dried. Baby's skin can become dry and irritated by cold air. Moisturizers with natural ingredients can help keep your skin hydrated. For this reason, it's important to take care of your baby's skin at an early age.
Take care of your baby's teeth
Good oral care for your baby begins even before the first tooth emerges. This is especially important in the first months of life, when the baby's mouth is still developing. Tooth decay in the unborn baby is transferred to the developing baby, increasing the risk of the child developing tooth decay. Poor oral hygiene can also impact the baby’s appearance and health. Fortunately, good oral care is easy and affordable for new parents. Read on for tips on caring for your baby's teeth.
Baby teeth play an important role in gum development and future permanent teeth. Poor dental hygiene can lead to crooked or misaligned teeth, as well as missing teeth. If baby teeth become lost, permanent teeth may also fall out. This can impact the child’s speech and bite. Baby's teeth can be saved for life by being taken care of now. Avoid giving your baby juice or milk before bedtime. And don't forget to drink fluoridated water to help keep bacteria at bay.

Care for the umbilical chord
The umbilical cord should be taken care of as soon as baby is born. The stump will probably fall off in a week or so. If the stump doesn't fall away by then, you can clean it with gauze and water. Then, sponge-bath your baby. It is important not to pull the cord stump so that it falls out. This can cause infection and scarring.
The stump may start to actively bleed and usually accompany a yellowish discharge. It is temporary and harmless. The stump will become pink scar tissue, called a "granuloma", if it isn't dried within one week. The granuloma can occasionally bleed, but will fade over time. If the bleeding continues for more than one week, it's best to contact your provider immediately.
