#asktheexperts does it hurt the baby if his umbilical cord falls off

A. Hello my dear parent! Ideally there shouldn’t be any problem as that area gets dried out, and that is the reason it falls out. But if there is any discomfort in the child, let your doctor know that and seek guidance in this matter.
