We even went to the ER about it. We applied brilliant green for three or four days, and it all cleared up. The belly button healed, everything's good. Brilliant green is the way to go; what they've come up with now, saying you can't use it, is just stupid and barbaric.

I had bleeding too. It was so scary... I put hydrogen peroxide on it and left it alone. It healed in about 5 days.

It only started bleeding when I didn't fold the diaper up. Hydrogen peroxide and brilliant green worked fine, and it healed with the brilliant green.
