No more belly button thingy.
Last night I was laying Rowan down in my bed to change him, and I noticed something next to him that looked a little like an enormous raisin. I pick it up, looked closely, and saw that it was his belly button. Well, not really his belly button, but the end of the cord that was clamped. So I changed him and went in the other room... a little while later I heard... "sick, honey, why did you leave this on the bed?" You see I didn't really know what to do with it. I'm just not ready for him to not be a "newborn". So I thought maybe I should keep it. I know most of you now think I am some weird sick-o. And no I did not keep the placenta and plant it in my backyard. But I do remember running into this problem with Bella. I was at the mall with my dear friend, Jamie, when Bella's belly button thingy fell off. I wasn't sure what to do with it then. I couldn't bear to just put it in the mall trash? So I put it in the stroller cup holder until we got to the car. Then I put it in the car cup holder where it sat for about a week until Brett found it and said... "sick, honey, why did you leave this in the cup holder?" Both times I ended up just throwing them away, that is after I debated if I should put it in an envelope to go in their baby book. Sick~ I know!
