Nona Pediatric Center Families,

I am writing to inform you of some important changes occurring at Nona Pediatric Center as a result of the continuing spread of COVID-19 throughout our country, including in surrounding communities. We are grateful that children, in general, seem to be the least affected age group when it comes to the severity of their illness.

Babies cry. Its their thing. Sometimes as a parent, you can figure out why, other times, not so much. Lets say your baby is crying; she just fed, her diaper is clean, yet she is still upset. What do you do now?

One of the frequent problems I encounter in everyday practice is that new moms don’t always produce enough breast milk. This is usually problematic, especially in the first few days when breastfeeding needs to be established.

Since you found out you were pregnant, you have been going to all your prenatal visits and all the classes. You and your OB have discussed the action plan and what to expect once its time to have the baby.
