The First Week Visit: Nice to Meet You
RECAP:
Sleeping
Newborns need more sleep time than awake time. Keep feedings and diaper changes quiet and brief at night.
​
Eating
Feed your baby every 2-3 hours.
​
Connecting
Cuddle skin-to-skin, talk, sing, and read to your baby.
​
Safety: Safe Sleep
Your baby is safest sleeping on their back in an empty crib or bassinet.
