2- Breastfeeding your new baby ...Breast milk provides all the nutrients that babies need for the first six months of their life and guards against many illnesses and allergies. Also, breastfeeding can help build a special closeness with your baby. Breastfeeding is one of the best things you can do for your baby. ||When your infant is carried, he should be oriented toward the carrying adult ||Your baby's foot may seem flat, but that's because a layer of fat covers the arch. Within two to three years, this extra padding will disappear. ||The AAP recommends sponge baths until the umbilical cord stump falls off — which might take up to three weeks ||AAP recommends to avoid blankets (a potential suffocation hazard) until your baby reaches her first birthday ||Try to develop passions outside of work. Don't define yourself by your job, and have the courage to be imperfect. ||Whenever possible, don't get involved in your kids' clash. Step in only if there's a danger of physical harm. ||Until your baby is 6 months old, he'll get all the hydration he needs from breast milk or formula, even in hot weather ||Always keep the number of Poison Centre posted beside your phone ||Infants raised on breast milk tend to score higher on tests of mental development than those on formula ||
