Infants raised on breast milk tend to score higher on tests of mental development than those on formula ||Contact the doctor if your newborn isn't gaining weight, wets fewer than six diapers a day or shows little interest in feedings ||When giving suspension or liquid medicines, use the dosage cup enclosed in the package or a syringe ||If you have trouble emptying your breast, apply warm compresses to the breast or take a warm shower before breast-feeding ||Make sure your baby wears a hat if she will be in a cold environment ||Trim your baby’s nails weekly after a bath when the nails are softened ||You'll develop a unique parenting style that is right for your family and may be quite different from your neighbors and friends. ||Massaging infants' arms and hands can significantly reduce their pain from needle sticks ||Every milestone is an accomplishment, but it means your child is more independent and needs you a little less ||Infant constipation is the passage of hard, dry bowel movements — not necessarily the absence of daily bowel movements ||
Are vitamins needed routinely?


If the child is having a balanced diet, healthy water to drink as described under the same section, he should not be in need of extra vitamins or minerals. One important exception is vitamin D. Our bodies naturally acquire vitamin D from exposure to the direct sun light. If your child is not adequately exposed to the sunlight than he/she will need vitamin D supplementation of at least 200 Units/day.
