How does the umbilical cord come out of the mom Will it fall out or do you have to cut it out?

The umbilical cord is attached to the placenta, which develops to nourish the fetus. During gestation, the placenta is attached to the wall of the uterus. However, after the baby is delivered the placenta detaches from the wall of the uterus and is delivered through the mother's vagina via contractions of the uterus like those that delivered the baby. The delivery of the placenta is the third stage of labor. Complications can arise if the placenta does not detach properly, or if is positioned such that it delivers before the baby. Severe bleeding and maternal death could result. In Western cultures, the umbilical cord is generally cut soon after the baby is delivered and the placenta and umbilical cord are disposed of following delivery. However, blood stem cells can be harvested from the cord for medical treatments. Also, some cultures allow the baby to remain attached to the placenta and umbilical cord until it degrades naturally. Some people also keep the placenta and have the mother consume it, or they plant it int he ground with a tree to nourish the tree or it is saved as a keepsake.

Why on earth do you have a belly button?

When a baby is growing inside its mother, it's not able to breath or eat like you do - instead, it gets its air and nutrients straight from Mom through a tube connected to its belly. This tube is called an "umbilical cord," and is where our belly buttons (also called "navels") come from.After the baby is born, a doctor will cut the umbilical cord since the baby can now breathe and eat on it's own. (Don't worry, there are no nerves in the umbilical cord so cutting it doesn't hurt the baby!) Within a few days the stump will dry up and fall off on its own, and what's left behind is the baby's very first scar: a belly button!
