As a new mommy, sleep when your baby sleeps. Silence your phone and ignore the dishes in the sink ||Until your baby is 6 months old, he'll get all the hydration he needs from breast milk or formula, even in hot weather ||Every milestone is an accomplishment, but it means your child is more independent and needs you a little less ||Always check the water temperature with your hand before bathing your baby. Be sure the room is comfortably warm, too ||The pacifier’s guard or shield should have ventilation holes so the baby can breathe if the shield does get into the mouth ||Reading aloud will help your baby be a better reader when she's older ||Most newborns need eight to 12 feedings a day — about one feeding every two to three hours ||When giving suspension or liquid medicines, use the dosage cup enclosed in the package or a syringe ||In case of eczema, use mild, unscented body and laundry soaps. Pat baby's skin dry; don't rub ||Infant constipation is the passage of hard, dry bowel movements — not necessarily the absence of daily bowel movements ||
Language Delay
 
Disorders of speech and language are common, ranging from unclear speech or a slight delay in development to more significant difficulties associated with serious disorders.
What causes speech and language problems?
  • Developmental speech and language disorder. These kids may have trouble producing speech sounds, using spoken language to communicate, or understanding what other people say. Speech and language problems are often the earliest sign of a learning disability.    
  • Hearing loss. If your child is speech/language delayed, their hearing should be tested.
  • Extreme environmental deprivation. If a child is neglected or abused and does not hear others speaking, they will not learn to speak.
  • Prematurity.
  • Auditory Processing Disorder describes a problem with decoding speech sounds. These kids can improve with speech and language therapy.
  • Autism affects communication. Speech / language / communication problems are often an early sign of autism.  
  • Structural problems like cleft lip or cleft palate.
  • Selective mutism is when a child will not talk at all in certain situations, often school.
Management
Management may sometimes be just explanation, simple advice and reassurance with the involvement of the health visitor. However, early detection and intervention for speech delay may prevent, or at least reduce, the educational, emotional and social problems that may be caused.
Management is dependent on cause and associated problems such as hearing impairment.
