Infant and Newborn Care
Going home with a new baby is exciting, but it can be scary, too. Newborns have
many needs, like frequent feedings and diaper changes. Babies can have
health issues that are different from older children and adults, like diaper rash
and cradle cap.

Your baby will go through many changes during the first year of life. You may feel
uneasy at first. Ask your health care provider for help if you need it.
Most young children get sick. It is hard for parents to know what is serious. You
can learn what the common warning signs are. In the end, trust your intuition. If
you are worried about your baby, call your health care provider right away.

Well-baby visits are important to your baby's health. A newborn usually needs to
be seen by a health care provider every few months. As children reach their first
birthday, most do not need to go as often. Babies will get their recommended
immunizations during these visits. Routine exams and screenings help you and
your kids prevent and treat health problems as well as chart their growth and
development.
