Infants (birth to 2)
Welcome to the world! Your baby meets his/her new pediatrician on the morning after the birth. Regularly-scheduled infant visits begin in the first week.
Newton Pediatrics follows infants closely, especially in the first two months. This is a time of rapid change and growth. We discuss feeding, sleeping, development, and any questions, concerns, or observations you may have. Now is the time to establish patterns for a lifetime of good health, and we are here to provide support and reliable information.
