CARING FOR YOUR BABY
Your baby is unique. As the parents, the people most closely involved, you will come to know your
baby best. Trust yourself. Most new parents are unsure of their parenting skills.
These worries will soon disappear with experience as you see that you can provide the proper
nutrition and the love, warmth, and attention your baby needs.
That's why you chose us.
All babies sneeze, yawn, belch, have hiccups, pass gas, cough, cry, and get fussy. These are normal behaviors.
Sneezing is the only way that babies can clean their nose. Hiccups are just little muscle spasms,
and they often can be stopped by giving the baby a few swallows of lukewarm water.
Crying is a baby's way of saying, "I'm tired." "I'm wet." "I want to be held." "I'm too hot." "I'm
hungry." Gradually, you will learn what your baby means when he or she cries.
Because your new baby has not had time to build up resistance to infection, try to limit visitors
during the first few weeks at home to close family mmebers and friends with no colds or other
contagious illnesses. Other friends and relatives can visit you and the baby later.
We here at Dr. Kharkover have similar care for your baby by providing you with a professional
detailed care.
