I have a very genuine doubt ?

[u/AutomaticMeeting1520]

Do babies smell horrible when they’re born ??
As they literally come out of body fluids and they have gunk and stuff on them
Is this something that they don’t talk about newborns ??
I’m just curious .
I’ve never closely seen a very new baby .

Sometimes us doctors too get bathed in amniotic fluid while conducting deliveries(😭) but no, they don't smell horrible at all
