After the first hectic weeks, babies take longer naps at predictable times. And you'll become a much better time manager ||Whenever possible, don't get involved in your kids' clash. Step in only if there's a danger of physical harm. ||Plan for regular family meals. Enjoy being together as a family and give a chance for everyone to decompress from the day ||Don’t forget to put labels with date and time on your expressed milk bottles to check expiry dates ||If you have trouble emptying your breast, apply warm compresses to the breast or take a warm shower before breast-feeding ||Contact the doctor if your newborn isn't gaining weight, wets fewer than six diapers a day or shows little interest in feedings ||A great deal of body heat is lost through a bare head, so make sure your baby wears a hat if she will be in a cold environment ||The most important thing on growth curves is how your baby grows over time. If he's small but growing at the appropriate rate, there's usually no cause for concern. ||Always check the water temperature with your hand before bathing your baby. Be sure the room is comfortably warm, too ||When your infant is carried, he should be oriented toward the carrying adult ||
