Parents, are you eager to bring your baby to his next checkup? Make sure you’re prepared to make the most out of your child’s trip to the doctor.

During your baby’s first six months, you and your baby should see your healthcare provider on a regular basis. At this age, the health care providers you’ll most likely see are your family physician and a public health nurse. These visits will contribute to your baby’s development and growth, as well as your family’s health and adjustment to parenthood.
