Does a baby feel the umbilical cord being cut off?

ANSWERS: 1

Chosun One

The umbilical cord is made of Wharton's jelly, not ordinary skin and connective tissue. There are no nerves, so cutting it is not painful. There is ordinarily no significant loss of either infant or maternal blood while cutting the cord.
