When Does Umbilical Cord Fall Off? After your baby is born, the umbilical stump usually dries up and falls off when your baby is about two weeks old. Two weeks isnât an exact number, some babies lose their stump as early as 7 days and as late as 21 days.
Keep a close eye on your infant's umbilical cord. The umbilical cord provides nutrients to your baby throughout the (approximately) 40 weeks of pregnancy. The cord is no longer needed after the birth, so it is snipped, leaving your infant with a small stump. Eventually, this stump dries up and falls off, leaving your baby with an adorable little belly button.
