About Your Healthy Baby

Babies and young children have special needs, and are more susceptible to infectious diseases than adults. Their immune systems are still developing; in addition, they have not yet developed personal hygiene habits like frequent and proper handwashing.

However, there are several ways to help raise a healthy baby and protect him or her from illness - including:

• Breast-feeding to help ensure that your baby receives natural antibodies from you that help combat germs while his or her own immune system is still developing.
• A healthy diet and lifestyle for both you and your growing child to help ensure that you are both better equipped to combat infections. It also minimizes the risks of other health problems, such as tooth decay.
• Routine immunizations to protect your baby from some serious and sometimes fatal diseases (e.g., polio, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, hepatitis).
• Thorough personal and home hygiene to help prevent the spread of disease-causing germs to your baby and other family members.

Other Areas of Importance

The health and well-being of you and your baby are impacted by other things, too. So throughout Looking After You and Your Baby, you'll find practical information and tips on topics that can affect both of you.

You'll discover need-to-know advice in such areas as handling your own emotions as a new mom, food safety for you and your baby, guidelines for setting up the baby's nursery, carseat and toy safety, and more. In addition, you'll find references to help you find additional information on those subjects of particular interest to you!
