Congratulations on Your New Baby!
You have a new baby, and you are a proud parent. Do you sometimes
feel excited but also a little nervous about taking care of your new
baby? Then you are like most parents. Even in the first days of life,
your baby is starting to find out who you are.
Research has found that very young babies know the difference
between their parents and strangers. There are many changes that
take place and new things to learn when you become a parent. It
doesn't happen overnight. Be patient with yourself. The love you have
for your baby will help you learn to become a good parent. Just as no
two babies are exactly alike, no one takes care of a baby in exactly the
same way. Be a loving parent. Do your best. Enjoy your baby! Ask
questions and read the “Your Baby’s First year†guide if you need help.
This over 200 page guide is going to answer a lot of your questions and show you how to take care of your baby during the first 12 months of your life together.
