Misunderstandings about newborn umbilical cord care mainly include the following points:

Don’t dare to clean the belly button: Some parents worry that cleaning the umbilical cord will harm the baby, but in fact, the baby’s umbilical cord needs to be cleaned every day to avoid infection. When cleaning, you should use cotton dipped in 75% alcohol or baby-specific iodine, and wipe it in a spiral shape from the center of the umbilicus to the surrounding areas. Do not rub back and forth randomly to avoid bringing bacteria from the surrounding skin into the umbilicus.

Diapers or diapers that are too long: If diapers or diapers are too long, they will cover the umbilical cord and prevent air circulation, which can easily lead to infection. Therefore, when putting diapers or diapers on your baby, be sure to wear them under the umbilical cord and not cover the umbilical cord.

Use skin care products or talcum powder: When the umbilical cord wound has not recovered, applying skin care products or talcum powder may irritate the baby's umbilical cord and lead to infection. Therefore, use of these products around the umbilical cord should be avoided.

Rubbing the umbilical cord: When putting clothes or diapers on your baby, pay special attention not to rub the baby's umbilical cord to avoid redness, swelling and inflammation.

Wipe with violet solution: If the baby's umbilical scab does not fall off in time, you should not use violet solution to wipe it, because violet solution will not speed up the healing of the umbilical cord, but may also affect mothers' judgment of the healing status of the umbilical cord. At this time, an alcohol swab should be used to wipe the navel to dry it off quickly.

All of the above misunderstandings may lead to improper care of the newborn's umbilical cord, leading to infection or other complications. Therefore, when caring for the umbilical cord of newborns, parents must follow correct care methods, keep the umbilical cord dry and clean, avoid touching and friction, and conduct regular disinfection and observation.
