The umbilical cord is connected from the belly button on the baby to the mother. It is what provides nutrients (foot) and oxygen to the baby while still in the womb. Once the baby is born, the umbilical cord is severed (or it will fall off on its own). The result that is left on the body is what is known as the belly button.
