FAQs

The first paediatrician visit is typically scheduled within a few days of birth, often around the first week. This initial visit allows the paediatrician to assess the baby's health, provide guidance to parents, and address any concerns.

Well-child check-ups are generally scheduled at regular intervals during the first few years of life, such as at 1, 2, 4, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 months, and then annually after age 2. These visits monitor growth, development, and address vaccinations and parental concerns.

Common signs include fever, persistent cough, changes in behaviour, difficulty breathing, and unusual rashes. Seek medical attention if symptoms are severe, persistent, or if you're concerned about your child's health.

Provide a balanced diet with a variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and dairy. Consult with the paediatrician for age-appropriate portion sizes and dietary recommendations. Vitamin supplements may be advised based on individual needs.
