It is recommended that your newborn have his or her first checkup within the first few days after leaving the hospital. Breast-fed infants should ideally be seen in the clinic within 48-72 hours after hospital discharge. At this visit, we will check your newborn's weight, check to see how your baby is feeding, and answer any questions you may have. We will also monitor for jaundice. We have the capability to check a bilirubin in-house if needed.
