As you rejoice with your new one's arrival and pondering about baby names, baby clothes, baby bed, baby feeding and baby sleeping, to name a few, you are also anxious to ensure that your little one remains in good health.

Caring for newborn babies is a learned art in some expert's opinions.There are lots of new baby tips that new parents have to think about when their brand new bundle of joy enters the world. It will certainly be a time of great celebration that friends and family will want to share in. Still pondering about new baby tips? It is a good idea to start thinking about the different issues that will become important to you once you are released from the hospital and left to start your new life as parents. Here are a few things to consider.


Feeding the Baby- Breast Milk or Formula

The two main choices that are open to you with regards to feeding your baby are to provide it with breast milk or to buy formula. Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages so it is important to decide what type of food you will provide. The decision may have already been made for you if you know that you want to get back to work quite soon after having the baby. Alternatively if you have the luxury of being a stay at home mom, then breastfeeding may be a great choice for you.


Nappies - Reusable or Disposable

As well as thinking about what type of milk you are going to feed your baby, you will want to figure out quite quickly what type of nappies you would prefer to use. The choices are purchasing a batch of reusable nappies which will most likely work out to be cheaper in the long run. However you will have to deal with the unpleasant task of washing many soiled nappies for quite some time. The alternative is to decide on the more popular choice of disposable nappies. This can work out to be a lot of money by the time your child is ready for potty training but the advantages include convenience and easy to use products.


Getting the Essential Equipment

You may have started to make a list of all the different bits and pieces you will require once the baby arrives. This will include the large items such as the right type of crib or cot, the best baby stroller, and the most suitable baby car seat. Smaller items that will be just as important include a baby changing mat, a travel cot, newborn baby-grows and other clothing, baby bottles and a diaper bag. It is a good idea to start purchasing as many things as you can before the baby arrives. A great solution to this shopping dilemma is if your family and friends throw you a baby shower. This is the perfect occasion to get all of the big ticket items purchased for you.

A brand new baby is a wonderful addition to any family. It is therefore a really good idea to start thinking about all the issues that you as new parents will face before the baby arrives so that you are as prepared as you can be when the time finally arrives.

Common Newborn Baby Problems and Mother and Baby Tips




Being a baby doctor did not confer the privilege of being "an anxiety-free cool parent" upon me! My Missus ( and I) could not understand how different it was for me to react to my own children's health problems(sometimes when there were NO PROBLEMS!!!)

Newborn babies are a great source of happiness for parents, family and friends. At the same time there can be little debate that babies are a constant cause of anxiety to parents and carers.

Here, I shall guide you with practical tips to deal with common day to day issues with your little ones.

We shall restrict the use of the word "NEWBORN" to the FIRST MONTH of life as is the medically accepted norm. After arriving into your world, your little one is likely to test your maternal/paternal instincts to the maximum by posing one or more of the following common BUT mostly harmless problems(not an exhaustive list by any means)

* CONSTANT CRYING

* POOR FEEDING

* JAUNDICE

* RASHES
