I've actually had this happen a couple times! You can do as Brian suggests or as I have done, put the baby in a shoebox w/a wet paper towel! Make sure the umbilical is not twisted or crimped and lay the yolk sac on the towel as well! Leave him alone! Both times, the yolk sac was completely gone in the am! In that case, there's usually some kind of restriction!
