In today’s article we are providing tips for parents with new born’s – yes that fun, exciting and tiring time of your life!!!

Sleeping

Parents of new babies often feel exhausted, with never enough sleep. Hang in there! It does get better.

New babies don't have regular sleep patterns. Some sleep nearly all day, others for only short periods.

Try and grab some rest when baby is sleeping.

All babies are born with different sleep needs. A few babies will sleep through the night but many will wake regularly.

Feeding

Babies have different feeding patterns. They can want a feed from three to 10 times a day. Don't worry, just think about the total eaten over the day. A baby who is gaining weight is getting enough food.

Babies get the nutrition they need from milk until about six months old. If you are having difficulties breast feeding ask your child health centre nurse for assistance. If you are weaning your child, the child health centre nurse can help you find the right milk formula for your baby.

The Nursing Mother's Association will give advice on all feeding and weaning issues, whether the baby is breast or bottle fed. The Breast Feeding Helpline is (08) 9309 5393.
Solids can be given when baby appears interested, usually around six months. Start with one food only, such as rice cereal, mashed banana or pureed apple mixed with a little breast or bottle milk.

Don't have lumps in the food. Baby's gums don't grind food as well as teeth.

The Health Department has lots of great information about food.

Sometimes babies have allergies to foods. Watch out for reactions to different types of foods. If your baby has an allergic reaction, get expert advice from your doctor or local child health nurse.
