Soon after birth the umbilical cord is clamped about 7 to 10mm from the infant's abdomen, the cord is then cut, separating the new born from the placenta. The baby will wear a cord tie or a plastic cord clamp until the cut edge has sufficiently sealed. The remaining cord stump will continue to dry for about 7 to 10 days when it will naturally drop off, the remnant becoming one's belly button.
