Visit-By-Visit Teaching

At each check-up, there I things I like my patients to know. You will receive a copy of the appropriate handouts at each visit.  But if you like to be prepared, you're welcome to anticipate the information by browsing the handouts below.
 
One month:   
Immunization schedule for most healthy infants
After-hours emergency policy
Car seats
Obesity prevention


Two months:    
Read to your baby
Immunizations are safe and effective


Four months:    
Sleep advice for infants
Starting solids


Six months: 
Spoiling


Nine months:    
The word "no!"


One year:  
Cooperation and responsibility
Car seats


Fifteen months:      
Cooperation and responsibility
 

 
At subsequent visits, it will be useful to review some of these topics.  Also, as each child develops individually, parents ask for additional advice.  I encourage you to browse all my handouts; click here to see the entire list.
