Bringing baby home - Naveed Yaseen - 10-17-2009 05:41 AM Once you leave the hospital with your newborn, you and your partner are on your own. The Nemours Foundation offers these suggestions before you begin the trip home: Today’s Health Tips * Pack personal clothing that’s comfortable. You may now be too small for most maternity wear, but you probably won’t be back to your pre-pregnancy size, either. * If the weather is warm, you don’t have to bundle baby in a heavy outfit and hat. In other words, dress baby for what’s weather appropriate, and make sure your newborn is comfortable. * Keep baby’s clothing simple. Avoid fancy outfits with lots of buttons, ties and zippers. * Make sure baby’s first post-hospital appointment with a pediatrician is scheduled. * Make sure the hospital staff has answered all of your questions and concerns. Before you leave for home, you should know how to perform infant CPR, safely give baby a bath and, if necessary, breastfeed. http://www.thenews.com.pk/daily_detail.asp?id=203589 |
