Preservatives, fragrances, harsh soap, rough fabric, sweat, and stress can be potential irritants for babies suffering from eczema ||Plan for regular family meals. Enjoy being together as a family and give a chance for everyone to decompress from the day ||Never tie a pacifier to your child’s crib or around your child’s neck or hand. This could cause serious injury or even death ||Most newborns need eight to 12 feedings a day — about one feeding every two to three hours ||Use a firm mattress and avoid placing your baby on thick, fluffy padding that may interfere with breathing if your baby's face presses against it ||Until your baby is 6 months old, he'll get all the hydration he needs from breast milk or formula, even in hot weather ||Don't forget to watch what you say and do around your child: Imitation is one of the ways toddlers learn socially acceptable behavior. ||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 ||Alternate the first breast you offer at each feed ||Contact the doctor if your newborn isn't gaining weight, wets fewer than six diapers a day or shows little interest in feedings ||
Are vitamins needed routinely?


If the child is having a balanced diet, healthy water to drink as described under the same section, he should not be in need of extra vitamins or minerals. One important exception is vitamin D. Our bodies naturally acquire vitamin D from exposure to the direct sun light. If your child is not adequately exposed to the sunlight than he/she will need vitamin D supplementation of at least 200 Units/day.
