If you’re having your baby during the Coronavirus outbreak, you’re probably asking yourself “Is my baby at risk for the coronavirus infection?” In this video, we talk about what the risks are for infants, the symptoms of coronavirus in infants, and very importantly- HOW TO AVOID GETTING THE CORONAVIRUS.
Unfortunately as far at the coronavirus risk babies are not exempt, so as a new parent, it’s important to know how to proactively navigate facing life with newborns and covid 19. Thankfully, coronavirus in kids does not seem to be more threatening than in adults- in fact, children seem to have more mild symptoms. But to try to avoid sickness altogether, in this video we are answering the question, “How can I keep my newborn from getting sick?”, discussing breastfeeding while sick, vitamin d drops for newborns, and how to safely take baby outside of the home.
By the end of this video, I hope that you feel confident in what you need to know about coronavirus and how to keep newborns healthy during this time!
