Developmental milestones

Lugging your newborn to the doctor’s office can be a chore — especially if they hate their car seat and make it known... loudly. As the parent of a newborn, you’ll be making your way to the pediatrician’s office quite often. Sometimes these visits will be unplanned because your bundle of joy isn’t feeling well. But during a baby’s first year of life, there are at least 7 routine pediatrician appointments, and it can be helpful to know what to expect.

Sleep

Managing your own sleep with a newborn can be like walking a tightrope very sleepily, trying to strike the right balance between getting things done and getting some sleep yourself. In the early stages, baby sleep is plentiful. But babies aren't necessarily sleeping when you want them to, which doesn't allow you, the parent, to get much sleep.Knowing what to expect when it comes to newborn sleep patterns can help you better prepare and hopefully get the rest you need, whether through naps or nighttime sleep.

So many words we use to describe babies and small children are used interchangeably. So before we hop into developmental milestones, let’s clarify when your child is considered a newborn, an infant, or a toddler.

As a parent, it's natural to worry when your baby or child isn't feeling their best. Unfortunately, sometimes it can be difficult to differentiate between a common cold and allergy symptoms.

Frequency of your baby’s poops can vary widely, and their stools vary in consistency due to their immature digestive system.
