Whether by birth or adoption, the delivery of your infant will be a long-anticipated and emotion-filled experience. After your baby is born, the hospital will automatically notify us (if you designated us as your baby's pediatric office when you were admitted to the hospital). One of our pediatricians will examine your baby within 24 hours of delivery and again shortly before you go home. At these exams we will discuss some of the common transitions babies make in the first few days of life, and what to expect upon going home, including feedings, elimination, sleeping, visitors, and signs of problems. Remember to add your new baby to your insurance and your insurance card as soon as possible to avoid a lapse in coverage. Call the insurance directly (the number is on the back of your card) or contact your Human Resources Department (if insurance is employee chosen). After Discharge From the Hospital Our preventative well visit schedule begins with a Newborn Visit during the first week of life. Life will be full of changes, learning experiences, surprises, and "firsts," for both babies and parents. Listed below are some of the most common newborn health and care issues that come up in the first few weeks at home. While most babies are healthy, please call us if you feel you have a problem. Weight loss occurs in almost all newborns during the first week of life as they rid themselves of excess fluids. A 5-10% loss is considered normal, and babies are usually back to birth weight by the two-week visit. After that, most babies gain ½ to 1 ounce a day for several months. Sleep will vary considerably. Some babies sleep 20 or more hours a day and waken only for a feeding. Others are awake every hour or so, including through the night! It is recommended that all infants be placed on their backs for sleep. Some sleeping babies gasp, snort, groan and occasionally even pause their breathing while they sleep. It's all normal. Jaundice is a yellow discoloration of the skin caused by the build-up of "bilirubin" in the blood and fat tissues. Bilirubin is the normal result of the breakdown of red blood cells (we all have bilirubin in our bodies). Because there is so much bilirubin produced in the first few days of life (from the birth, bruising, etc.), sometimes it temporarily accumulates in the skin until the liver can break it up and help the body eliminate it. The most common time babies develop jaundice is 2-5 days after delivery. This is rarely a problem, but if you notice your baby becoming quite yellow (or "orange") and lethargic, contact us at the office. The best way to prevent jaundice is frequent feedings (every 2-3 hours) to help your baby have more stools (which is one way the body excretes bilirubin). Mild jaundice can be helped by exposing a baby to window sunlight. Newborn rash or "Erythema Toxicum" is a common rash seen in the first week or two of life. It is a widely scattered rash that consists of red raised spots with whitish centers (resembling "flea bites"). The rash has no symptoms, and no one knows why babies get it, but it usually goes away on its own by the time a baby is two weeks old. Infantile (neonatal) acne is another type of skin rash that usually shows up when a baby is two to six weeks old and is due to the stimulation of the body's oil glands by maternal hormones during the pregnancy. This appears as pink raised "pimples" and can develop anywhere on the body, but most commonly on the face, chest and upper back. Some babies get only a few pimples, while others get covered from head to toe. No treatment is needed nor recommended unless the pimples begin to look infected (increasing redness or fluid-filled pustules). Infant acne does not indicate the future presence nor severity of adolescent acne. Infant breast enlargement is normal regardless of gender and is caused by pregnancy-related hormones. Sometimes a thin white discharge may be present at the nipple. Observation is all that is needed and this should clear within a few weeks. Infant female bloody spotting, or "pseudomenstruation" is the name of the blood tinged vaginal discharge caused by maternal estrogen's effect on a baby girl's vagina and uterus. It is totally normal, and may occur on and off for the first month. Hiccoughs, sneezing, chin quivering, sudden jerking movements and random eye crossing are all normal newborn behaviors and do not mean something is wrong. A newborn's nervous system is very immature and is not used to having to coordinate all those new reflexes. Umbilical cord care usually involves observation alone. Some people still prefer to clean the base of the cord 1-2 times a day with rubbing alcohol, but avoid cleaning too frequently, as this can irritate the skin and delay cord separation. A little bleeding a few days before and after the cord falls off is normal. Dry skin is normal and varies in all newborns. Some get just a little patchy dryness, while others have peeling, flaky, cracked skin all over their bodies. With the exception of extreme cases, lotions are usually not needed nor are they helpful. The dryness will resolve into smooth "baby" skin at about the same time the oil glands mature and erupt (age 2-6 weeks). Circumcision remains a subject of controversy and opinion. There is no overwhelming evidence that supports whether a child should or should not be circumcised, so the decision is left to the parents. If the decision is to circumcise, take care of the freshly circumcised penis by gently washing away debris with warm water. Follow with an application of petroleum jelly and a fresh gauze pad (to prevent the diaper from sticking to the healing site) until there is no more drainage on the gauze pads. Most circumcisions are healed and well-protected within 2-3 days. If the decision is to remain uncircumcised, the care of the foreskin consists of gently removing accumulated secretions with a soft cloth during bath time. It is not necessary to vigorously retract the foreskin during infancy; it will gradually separate over time and eventually become fully retractable. When this occurs, your son can be taught to clean this area on his own. Bathing is initially done with a washcloth or sponge and the baby laying on a towel. When the cord falls off and there is no more drainage from the cord area, bathing your baby is a small tub or sink is fine (remember to put a non-slip pad or washcloth on the bottom of the tub for safety). Most babies need only 1-2 baths a week, as parents clean the dirty areas frequently anyway (around the mouth, nose, neck, and diaper area). Avoid soap on the face, and use it sparingly on the scalp and body (unscented mild soaps are the least irritating and drying). Healthy ears are self-cleaning, and cotton-swabs are never recommended. Baby powder is also not recommended because of the risk of inhalation of the talc and subsequent lung irritation. Room temperature should be determined by what is comfortable for you (68-72 degrees is average), and we advise dressing your baby appropriate for the conditions. For example, if you like your house on the cooler side, an extra undershirt for baby is a good idea. Resist the urge to overbundle. If you take your baby outside (even if only from the house to the car), protect her from the elements (wind, cold, heat, sun, rain, blowing dirt/sand) with a lightweight blanket over her infant carrier. Visitors and outings really need to be limited in your baby's first few weeks of life. This is very difficult for most parents, as the adrenaline is pumping and you are so excited to show your baby to the world. But, having too many visitors to your house or taking your baby to someone else's house is surprisingly exhausting, for parents and babies. Plus, this immediate and often uncontrolled exposure to illness (illness that we adults consider mild and routine) can be serious to a newborn. Remember (and remind visitors) to wash your hands frequently, and always before touching or picking up your baby. Crying is a baby's way of communicating, and does not necessarily mean that the baby is angry. All babies cry, some much more than others. Eventually you will get to know your own baby's cries and be able to distinguish between the "feed me," "change me," "dress me," "hold me," and "leave me alone" cries. Each baby has a separate personality and temperament, which is often what determines how a baby will respond to changes or stimulation. Some babies are very mellow and barely squeak when really hungry. Other babies go into a full cry when their arms accidentally sneak out of the blanket a little. If you feel that your baby is crying inconsolably for more than an hour or two, or longer than you feel comfortable with, please call us. Familiarize yourself with Shaken Baby Syndrome and know who you would call for help if you needed a break from your baby's crying. Pacifiers and thumbs are topics sure to stimulate intense conversation with friends and relatives! In general, all babies need to suck to console themselves; they have no other way to calm down. To deprive a baby of this natural sucking need will deprive him or her of a natural reflex and will likely lead to fussiness. Some babies are very "oral," while others really only suck when feeding. There are certainly advantages and disadvantages of both the pacifier and thumb for these oral babies. Early on, babies usually cannot hold anything in the mouth without help (the pacifier pops right out, or the thumb gets yanked away when the baby startles). If the baby is breastfeeding, and is having a hard time getting the hang of it, pacifiers and bottles are not recommended until the nursing improves. When the sucking strength improves, the thumb is handy because it's always there (especially in the middle of the night). But, pacifiers can eventually be thrown away. Once teeth start coming in, both the pacifier and to a greater extent the thumbsucking can cause displacement of the teeth and an increase to the arch (roof) of the mouth.

4 months Nutrition Breast milk and/or iron-fortified formula are still your baby's main food sources. Most babies nurse 4-6 times a day or take 20-36 ounces of formula. Solid foods (if desired) supplement, but do not replace, milk. Babies often give clues as to their need to start solids (see our handout on "Starting Solids"). Your baby should be able to sit with support and keep her head steady enough to be able to spoon feed. Solid foods should not be started arbitrarily based on weight or age. Wellness Visits Finally, the majority of babies are sleeping 8-12 hours at night, and taking 2-3 naps. It is recommended to always place infants on their backs for sleeping. Putting your baby in her crib for all naps and bedtimes will help her learn the skill of falling asleep alone. This makes it easier for her to do this in the middle of the night should she start waking. Sleep Starting solids will affect the color, consistency, odor, and frequency of stools. Breast-fed infants often have thicker less-frequent stools. Elimination Car seat: Make sure your baby's car seat still fits her appropriately (babies often need to advance to the next car seat size when they reach 20 pounds) and is in good shape. For the best protection, keep your infant in the center back seat of the car and facing backward until she is 1 year of age and 20 pounds. All children should ride in the back seat until they are 12 years old. Like seatbelts, car seats only work when used correctly and consistently. Life-preservers: Minnesota State Law requires all children under the age of 10 to wear a life-preserver when on any private boat. Find one that fits well. Falls: This is the most common age for babies to roll off beds, couches, and changing tables. Make sure safety straps are intact and applied correctly, or the crib rails up, if you need to walk away from your baby. Taking into consideration siblings and pets, the floor is often a safe place for a baby, and also enhances development. Grabbing and choking: Everything a four month old baby can get her hands around goes straight to the mouth. Watch out for jewelry, eye-glasses, tablecloths, coffee cups, small pieces of food, toys with detachable parts, coins, loose buttons (on your clothes and hers), hot or sharp items, etc. Anything that can fit inside an infant's mouth is a potential choking hazard. Use a playpen as an island of safety during times when your attention is needed elsewhere, but avoid using it for long periods of time. Your baby does need the opportunity to safely explore her world. Remember, if your baby is crying a lot put her in a safe place and take a break. Call someone to help you or call the Parent Warmline (612-813-6336). If you continue to feel frustrated or feel you could harm your baby, call Crisis Connection (612-379-6363) or Minneapolis Crisis Nursery (763-591-0100). Safety The four-month age is thought to be the most social of the first year of life. Your child will often smile and coo at anyone, including doctors and nurse practitioners! Siblings often think babies are more "fun" now, as they can get the baby to respond to actions and talking. We encourage parents to evaluate their own personal time needs and arrange to have those needs met. Family Adjustments Please let us know of any side effects other than a low-grade fever or local tenderness at the injection site. Your baby's next regular health care visit will be at age SIX MONTHS. By then she will be on the edge of mobility, getting more specific at grabbing things, babbling more, and possibly getting a little cautious of strangers. We will discuss advancing solid foods at that time. The scheduled vaccines are the third DTaP, Hib, IPV, PCV7, HBV and oral Rotavirus. The Influenza vaccine is also encouraged for all children ages 6-23 months (depending on the time of year). Please try to be at least 10 minutes early for all scheduled well-child visits. Aim to be human, not perfect, in your parenting.

You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of their bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3095.

We've had long-standing concerns about a phenomenon called antibiotic resistance. This is a serious public health problem caused by the overuse and inappropriate use of antibiotics. Antibiotics are excellent medications when used appropriately; they fight bacterial infections and have saved many lives. The problem occurs when bacteria that have previously responded to a particular antibiotic get over-exposed to it. Those bacteria can actually change their structure and become invincible against the antibiotics that previously controlled them. This is called "antibiotic resistance", and it can affect an individual person or an entire community. The potential danger of antibiotic resistance is that the more our current antibiotics are used (especially if used inappropriately), the less effective they will be when we really need them to treat serious and life-threatening illnesses. Until now, the primary response to the problem has been the development of new antibiotics, a strategy that is expensive and temporary. There is a limit to this potential, and we close in on it every day. The most common antibiotic overuse or misuse situations occur with viral infections. Viral illnesses, while bothersome, will not get better any more quickly if an antibiotic is used. They will run their course in the time it takes the body's immune system to clear the infection. Sometimes it is assumed that if no antibiotic is advised there is "nothing wrong" or "nothing we can do." Viruses do indeed cause illnesses; our job is to keep a child with a viral illness comfortable, hydrated, and nourished, and to watch for signs of more serious illness. Examples of Common Infections Colds Characterized by runny nose, sneezing, low-grade fever, achy muscles, headache, fatigue, and cough, the common cold usually lasts from 3 to 14 days. The runny nose usually goes from clear to thick green/yellow in the middle of the cold. This is normal and does not indicate a sinus infection. The average child has 3-8 colds a year (up to 12 if in daycare), which can mean one cold after another, with no break in symptoms in between. Sinus disease Most colds involve sinus disease (congestion and pressure in the sinus area). A sinus infection is more likely if a child's cold symptoms persist more than 14 days without any signs of improvement, or if the symptoms worsen (high fever, increasing headaches, facial pain or swelling). Sore Throats Most sore throats are caused by viruses (70-90%). Strep throat is bacterial, and is usually the only type of sore throat that needs an antibiotic. A throat culture is the only way to know for sure; if it is negative, then your child does not need an antibiotic. Ear Infections Believe it or not, many ear infections (50-80%) will heal completely with observation alone and without antibiotics. This is especially true for those described as middle ear fluid without signs of other disease (redness, inflammation, fever). Sometimes children complain of ear pain but do not actually have an infection. This is the reason we see all children with symptoms of an ear infection. Coughs Most coughs are viral, even ones that last a week or so after a cold goes away. Some are dry and hacky, some are loose and congested. The diagnosis of "bronchitis" means "inflammation of the bronchi" (the large airways to the lungs). This is usually caused by a virus, as is most illness-related wheezing and even pneumonia. It is wise to have a worsening or chronic cough evaluated, but an antibiotic may not be needed. Influenza The symptoms of this winter virus include fever, cough, chills, fatigue, head and muscle aches, crankiness, and a sore throat. Unless there are complications no treatment is needed except fluids, comfort and time. The yearly vaccine usually prevents it. Pink Eye This itchy, red, mattery eye infection is occasionally caused by a virus and therefore may not respond to antibiotic eye drops. It frequently comes along with a cold, and, whether it is bacterial or viral, it is contagious so good hygiene is important. The best treatment is warm packs and vigilance (seek an evaluation at the clinic if it worsens). Antibiotic Resistance We are often asked if an antibiotic will prevent a secondary infection (such as an ear infection from a cold). While there is a select group of children considered high risk for developing secondary infections, most children are not at risk and antibiotics will probably not help. We are also sometimes confronted with the statement, "That antibiotic didn't work last time." If a child has a current infection, and cleared a previous infection more than two or three months ago (regardless of what antibiotic was used last), it is highly unlikely that the current infection is caused by the same past germ. Using a broad-spectrum ("stronger") antibiotic when a first-line antibiotic is likely to achieve the same results is another way of promoting antibiotic resistance. Bacteria develop resistance more easily against broad-spectrum antibiotics. For the reasons mentioned above we are finding it more critical to examine why and how we use antibiotics. To slow the emergence of resistant bacteria, we need to preserve the antibiotics we have by using them more sensibly. Studies show that reducing the use of an antibiotic is generally followed by a decrease in antibiotic resistance community-wide. We realize that recommending symptomatic versus antibiotic treatments for our patients is sometimes stressful for parents. We are well aware that it is hard to have a sick child, especially just before or during a vacation or special event, or when you really need to be at work. We also know it is never easy to come in for an appointment. But we value your child's health and feel an accurate diagnosis is important. This usually cannot be done over the phone. If you have any questions or concerns about your child's diagnosis or treatment, please ask. To prevent illnesses and the need for antibiotics, we can all help: Be realistic and rational about infections and their treatments; let's all avoid using or requesting antibiotics when they are neither indicated nor proven beneficial. Never start antibiotics on your own ("leftovers" from a previous illness). This increases the risk of resistance and can affect the outcome of laboratory tests if they are needed. Wash your hands, and your child's hands, frequently. Encourage immunizations. Work with daycare centers and schools to improve infection control practices. We vow to do our part, by educating ourselves, our patients and families, and by resisting the casual antibiotic attitude so prevalent in our society.

Acetaminophen & Ibuprofen Dosages If you are using acetaminophen or ibuprofen for more than 5 days, please contact the clinic. Dosing Charts Acetaminophen (healthychildren.org) Ibuprofen (healthychildren.org) Information Acetaminophen is the generic name for medications such as Tylenol®, Tempra®, and Panadol®. General acetaminophen dosage is 5 - 7 mg per pound per dose every 4 - 6 hours as needed. Acetaminophen comes in suppository form, also, (brand name Feverall®) which is good to have on hand in case of vomiting. Dosing is the same as oral. It is not recommended to use acetaminophen if a child is under three months of age (unless specifically recommended by a health care provider). "Treating" a fever or fussiness in this age group without knowing the cause of the symptoms can mask the illness and prolong a diagnosis. Ibuprofen is the generic name for medications such as Motrin® and Advil®. General ibuprofen dosage is 3-5mg per pound per dose every 6-8 hours as needed. Give with food.
