Paging Dr. Mom
We don’t blame you for having the pediatrician on speed dial, especially if this is your first baby. It is really intimidating having this little person relying on you when you have never done this before. It is definitely a learning experience, and nothing is scarier than not knowing what is wrong with your baby or how to soothe their painful cries. Here at Daily Mom, we have posts that may help during this stressful time. Whether your child is dealing with skin concerns or you are looking for help with acid reflux, we have some pointers to help you in the first few months!
