 Today, babies have more opportunities than ever before to grow into
healthy children, adolescents, and adults. Each year in the US, more than 4
million babies are born.
Advances in medical research, the advent of new vaccines and medications, and
the development of new technologies have helped improve the healthcare of both
well and sick newborn babies.
Further, innovations in baby care equipment have made the tasks of caring for
babies much easier.
A newborn baby brings many joys as well as many questions. Along with the
happiness parents feel with the birth of their child, they often have concerns
about his or her health.
Fortunately, there are many knowledgeable healthcare professionals to guide you
and teach you, as parents and caregivers, about your new baby. With their help,
you can become confident in your own abilities and knowledge as you love and
care for your newborn.
