When your child falls and bumps their head, do not allow them to go to sleep for at least two hours. This is because you want to monitor for symptoms that your child may have suffered from internal bleeding. Some symptoms include disorientation, confusion, headache and dizziness complaints, and blurred vision. If your child has these symptoms, bring him/her to the emergency room.
Be wary about introducing pacifiers to your breastfeed ba. Pacifiers are designed to take care of a ba’s need to suck, however the reason a ba needs to suck is because that is how they breastfeed. If they can satisfy their need to suck elsewhere it will hurt your breastfeeding relationship. Limit pacifiers for at least the first 6 weeks.
If your child will be walking to his or her school, map out a set path before the first day. If possible, opt for the route that allows for as much space between the edge of the sidewalk and the street. You should also try to avoid, or minimize, the number of times your child will have to walk across the street.

TVs falling on children happens more than you would like to imagine it does. In the age of big screen TV’s, it is more important than ever to secure your television sets.

Making sure your home is safe for your little ones is an essential part of parenting.
