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

After the baby is born, the umbilical cord that connects the baby to the placenta will no longer be needed. The cord will typically be clamped and cut by the healthcare provider within a few minutes of the baby's birth. This process is painless for both the mother and the baby.

In some cases, the umbilical cord may not need to be cut immediately. This may happen if the baby is born prematurely or if there is a medical condition that requires the cord to be left intact for a period of time. In these cases, the cord will eventually fall off on its own within a few days or weeks.

As the cord falls off, a small amount of bleeding may occur. This is normal and should stop on its own. However, if the bleeding is heavy or does not stop, it is important to contact the healthcare provider.
