We've been giving Aubree a sponge bath since we brought her home from the doctor's because her umbilical cord stump was still connected to her. It was kind of interesting because it looks like it was sore, but the doctor said it didn't hurt her at all. We just had to put rubbing alcohol every time we changed her diaper. Last week, it finally came off. Bryce was changing her and yelled 'it came off'! At first it looked like she was going to have an 'outie' belly button, but eventually her stump went down and she has a 'innie'. We didn't really know what to do with it. We were wondering if people save it and put it in their Book of Remembrance or if they just throw it away. We didn't want to throw it away so we just put it in a ziploc bag. Haha, who knows. And come to think of it, I have no idea where it is now!
So now that her stump came off, we were able to give her a real bath and immerse her in water. It was kind of scary, but we had the baby tub and it came with the newborn attachment. She actually really liked the bath. She just laid in the tub and looked content and cute! It's funny because for such a small child, it takes 2 adults to give her a bath!
soo cute! she is a water baby! or i think she just likes being pampered! wait till I get to take her to get her pedi's!
