[QUOTE="branguscowgirl, post: 1238384, member: 19938"] I routinely treat mine with Betadine or Iodine at birth and again the next day. Use the dilute concentration or dilute 10% with some water or you can blister their skin. Seems the only one I didn't treat got a navel infection, though I am sure most of the big operations don't treat the cords. It's just my luck I guess. I put it in an old pill bottle and submerge the cord up to the navel and give it a good agitation. [/QUOTE]
