Well Baby Office Visits

_____________________________________________

     For newborns, the first year of life will be one of the most exciting years for your baby. During this time, he/she will grow more rapidly and make more fascinating changes than he/she will ever make again. Well Baby visits will enable us to anticipate and help you with some of the common problems. Your baby should be seen for the first office check-up when specified by the doctor seeing your baby. Well Baby check-ups are then scheduled every 2-3 months until age 18 months.

     The immunizations or "baby shots" are very important for protecting your baby against certain illnesses. These will include DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough), polio, measles mumps, rubella, Hepatitis B, Hemophilus Influenza B, Pneumococcal, flu and chicken pox vaccines, in addition to the necessary boosters.
