Frequently Asked Questions
How often should my baby have wellness checks?
Newborns and infants should have regular wellness checks following the recommended pediatric schedule, typically at 2 weeks, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, and 12 months. During each visit, our doctors assess growth, development, feeding, sleep patterns, and overall health. We also provide guidance to parents to ensure their baby is thriving at each stage.
What should I bring to the appointment?
For every Baby Wellness Check, please bring your baby’s complete immunization record, any previous medical documents, and a list of questions or concerns. If your child is taking medications, has allergies, or has been experiencing any unusual symptoms, make note of them. This ensures our team can provide the most thorough and personalized care possible.
Are vaccines included in the wellness check?
Yes, vaccinations are an essential part of our Baby Wellness Checks. Our doctors provide guidance on the recommended immunization schedule, explain the purpose of each vaccine, and answer any questions or concerns. We also monitor your baby’s response to each shot and provide advice on managing minor side effects, ensuring your child remains safe and healthy.
What if my baby has special health concerns?
If your baby has specific medical concerns, our clinic provides personalized care tailored to their needs. We collaborate with pediatric specialists, therapists, and other healthcare providers to ensure every aspect of your baby’s development is closely monitored. This approach guarantees comprehensive support for growth, nutrition, immunizations, and developmental milestones.
Can both parents attend the appointment?
Absolutely! We encourage both parents or guardians to attend Baby Wellness Checks whenever possible. This allows everyone to receive guidance, ask questions, and understand important aspects of your child’s growth and development. We also provide educational resources during the visit, empowering both parents to confidently support their baby’s health and wellbeing.
How long does a typical baby wellness check take?
A standard Baby Wellness Check typically lasts between 20 to 45 minutes, depending on your baby’s age, health status, and any specific concerns you may have. This allows sufficient time for a full physical examination, monitoring of growth and development, discussion about feeding and sleep, vaccination guidance, and answering all questions parents may have.
