How to keep your baby healthy

Breastfeed or use formula: For infants, breast milk or formula provides the necessary nutrients for growth and development. Breast milk is best as it contains antibodies that help protect against infections and diseases.
Practice good hygiene: Wash your hands before handling your baby and keep your baby’s surroundings clean. Clean and disinfect toys and surfaces your baby comes in contact with regularly.
Ensure proper sleep: New-borns typically sleep for 16-17 hours a day, while older babies need 12-14 hours of sleep. Establishing a routine and a conducive sleeping environment can help your baby get adequate rest.
Regular medical check-ups: Regular medical check-ups are essential to ensure that your baby is growing and developing as expected. Vaccinations are also crucial to protect against diseases.
Provide a safe environment: Ensure that your home is safe for your baby by baby-proofing your home, including securing cabinets and drawers, covering electrical outlets, and keeping sharp objects out of reach.
Encourage physical activity: As your baby grows, encourage physical activity, such as tummy time, crawling, and walking. This can help build strength, coordination, and gross motor skills.
Limit screen time: Screen time should be limited for infants and young children. Experts recommend avoiding screen time altogether for children under two years of age.
Maintain a healthy diet: As your baby grows and starts to eat solid foods, ensure a balanced and healthy diet. Introduce a variety of fruits, vegetables, and proteins while limiting sugary and processed foods.
