Life with a Newborn
Back to the Main Pregnancy Page

Learning to care for your baby and yourself is the challenge of the first few weeks following delivery. You will be defining your role as a parent & adapting to the change in your family. 

Take some time before your baby is born to read about newborns and what life will be like when he/she comes home with you. It is a good time to read about:

Infant care
Babies & Children
Transition to the First Year of Life
Bonding & Attachment
Early Brain Development
Prevention of Flat Head
Shaken Baby Syndrome
Family Coping
Community resources: Growing Up Healthy
Fathers
