1 week old baby, his belly button has a strong iron smell. There is no discharge around the belly button and there is no discharge. Only a little blood on the cotton swabs when we clean and dry.
What can I do and is this normal, I want to make sure this is not a problem

Hello Mrs
For the moment, in the absence of other symptoms, there is no need to worry. Just continue with the basic hygiene measures in this area. If the redness increases, purulent discharge occurs, or your baby develops a fever, you should consult a doctor.
I hope this has put your mind at ease, so please don't hesitate if you have any further questions!
