ask if the doctor is certified in the American Board of Family Medicine. Family doctors are trained to treat patients of all ages, including children, but they do not have a specialty in pediatrics. Next consider the basic office information that can be found online or with a quick phone call. What are the office hours? Do they have walk in hours? Will the doctor visit the hospital where you will deliver your baby? What hospital will your child be admitted to if needed? Is the office location convenient to your home, work, school, and daycare? Take these things into consideration as you narrow down your list. Visit the office To find out if you feel comfortable in the pediatrician’s office, you will have to take a tour. Call the office and ask if they have times set up for potential patients to come and visit the office or if you would need to make an appointment and ask if you can interview the doctor at the same time. Remember
to ask if there is a charge for visiting. Verify with your insurance company to see if the cost would be covered or if you would be responsible for the fees. When visiting the office be aware of what the overall environment feels like. Take into consideration if the office staff is courteous, polite, and willing to help. Is the office clean and inviting? Was parking convenient? Do they have separate sick and well waiting areas? Take all of these things into consideration in your decision. If you plan to visit more than one office, be sure to take notes for later consideration. Ask some questions After you have decided that the office environment is a good fit, you will need to interview the pediatrician. Pharmacists, Darcy and Phil King said “ After collecting recommendations, I scoured their websites, set up appointments and interviewed them. After the visits, it was very clear which was a good fit.”
Start by asking how sick appointments work. How long would it take for a sick child to be seen? Is there a good chance the child will be seen by his own doctor? Do you have similar views on health and wellness such as circumcision, breastfeeding, and immunizations. It is also important to consider what your preferences are. “Do you want a doctor who offers choices and lets you decide which one works best for you? Or would you be more comfortable with one who gives a lot of directions?� (www. babycenter.com) Overall, does the doctor seem genuinely interested in your child or does he seem distracted or rushed? Take your overall impression into account when making your decision. Bedside Manner How the doctor interacts with your child will have a lot of impact on the decision to choose a pediatrician. Do you feel comfortable around the doctor? Does your

When is it time to find a new pediatrician?
• If your child cries the whole time, that alone, is not cause to switch. However, if the doctor doesn’t seem to care or make an effort to soothe your child, you may have a problem. • If you’re unclear why a certain medication is prescribed or why a test is done. • If you can’t come to an agreement, or at least a middle ground, on most issues. • If the location and hours no longer work for your family. • If the doctor often seems inaccessible when your child is sick. • If the doctor is making you feel bad or consistently reproaching you for parenting choices. • If you feel the doctor is not listening to your concerns. Before switching, discuss your concerns with the doctor. If a compromise cannot be made, it’s time to look elsewhere. Your child’s health is top priority.
child? Are they willing to take the time to listen to your questions and concerns? A good bedside manner can go a long way in making you and your child feel comfortable. Finding the right pediatrician can be overwhelming, but realize your decision does not have to be permanent.“It’s important to recognize you are not stuck with your decision. You see your pediatrician a lot in those first months and if there is something really bothering you, it’s okay to switch.” says Becky Baldridge Olathe, KS mom. The parent’s goal is the same as the pediatrician, a happy and healthy child. When you find a doctor that is a good fit for your family, you can all work together to reach this goal. Sarah Lyons is a mother of six children, including 2 year old triplets. With a full house, they visit the pediatrician very often.

Local doctor finds 101 reasons to smile and shares it with his community Sometimes we get wrapped up in the hustle bustle of our daily world, go to work, take the kids to school, pick up the kids, homework, dinner, bedtime then wake up and repeat it all again. Adding further stress on our lives, we have the constant barrage of technology in our face almost 24/7 (e-mail, calls, text and social media). It is also hard to hide from the instant news headlines of the world that flash on your phone within minutes of it happening. So much is going on that sometimes you might find it hard to smile. Local doctor, Dr. Howard B. Shullman wanted to help remind you to stop and smell the roses and take in the little things in life that hopefully will give you a reason to bring a smile back to your face! His book is titled, “101 Reasons to Smile.” It is his take on what brings a smile to our face. 101 quotes that remind people to think about the moments in their life where they felt happy or inspired others. In his introduction he states, “Smiles inspire all of us. Smiles evoke confidence. Smiles warm the soul. Smiles have the ability to change our mood and the mood of others. Smiles are contagious. For these reasons and so many more, this book was written to express the joy I have

experienced over the years creating beautiful smiles that last a lifetime.” The pages are bright and colorful with cheery reminders of the good in the world: “Watching your baby take their first steps.” “Squishing your toes in the sand as the ocean water surrounds your feet.” “Seeing the work you do impact people in a positive, lasting way.” “Watching your child score a goal on the soccer field.” “Fresh baked chocolate chip cookies.” Shullman’s book is out now and has begun distribution around the community where he hopes to bring many more smiles to people’s faces! Dr. Howard B. Shullman is a Miami native (born and raised). He attended University of Florida in Gainesville and earned his Doctorate in Dental Medicine. Following graduation, he practiced general dentistry in Tampa focusing on the treatment of children. He now practices Orthodontics and resides in Wellington with his wife and three daughters.

Bringing Your Baby Home Whether your baby comes home from the hospital right away, arrives later (perhaps after a stay in the neonatal intensive care unit), or comes through an adoption agency, the homecoming of your little one is a major event you’ve probably often imagined. Here’s how to be prepared. Leaving the Hospital - Moms-to-be sometimes pack clothes for the trip home before even going to the hospital — or they may wait to see what the weather brings and have their partner bring clothing for both themselves and the baby. Plan to bring loose-fitting clothing for yourself with a drawstring or elastic waist because you most likely won’t fit into your pre-pregnancy outfits yet. Babies are often overdressed for the first trip home. Dress your baby as you would dress yourself. So, if you’d be too warm in a knitted hat during the summer, your baby probably will be, too. In warm weather, dress your baby in a T-shirt and light cotton pants or a baby blanket over bare legs. If it’s cold, put footie pajamas, a hat, and warm blanket over your baby. But be sure to keep all blankets far from your baby’s face to avoid suffocation. Chances are much better that you’ll bring home a calm, contented baby if you don’t spend a lot of time at the hospital trying to dress your newborn in a complicated outfit that requires pushing and pulling your baby’s arms and legs.
16 April 2018 | PB Parenting |
If you haven’t already made the arrangements with your baby’s health care provider, make sure to ask when the baby’s first checkup should be scheduled before you leave the hospital. Depending on the circumstances, some premature babies also go home with a special monitor for checking breathing and heart rate, and you may be taught infant cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). But whether your baby is full-term or premature, don’t feel rushed out the door — have your questions answered before you leave the hospital. And if you find yourself wondering about anything — from bathing to breastfeeding to burping — ask your nurse, lactation consultant, or your baby’s doctor. The Car Trip - The most important item for the trip home is a proper child safety seat (car seat). Every state requires parents to have one before leaving the hospital because it’s one of the best ways to protect your baby. Even for a short trip, it’s never safe for one of you to hold your baby in your arms while the other drives. Your baby could be pulled from your arms and thrown against the dashboard by a quick stop. Consider buying, renting, or borrowing a car seat before your baby’s born, when you have time to choose carefully. There are two kinds of car seats for babies: infant-only seats (which must be replaced when your baby weighs 22 to 35 pounds, depending on the type of seat) and convertible seats that accommodate both infants and older children.

Infant-only seats are designed for rearfacing use only and fit infants better than convertible seats. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that infants and toddlers ride in a rear-facing seat until they are 2 years old or until they have reached the maximum weight and height limits recommended by the manufacturer. Some parents of newborns find that a “travel system” (which includes a stroller and an infant-only car seat that can be attached to the stroller) makes it much smoother to transition babies — especially sleeping ones — from the car to the stroller.
even after age 2. (Follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for when to turn the seat.) Never put a rear-facing infant or convertible seat in the front seat of your car — always use the rear seat. Passenger-side airbags in the front seat cabin are hazardous for both rear- and forward-facing car seats, and most accidents happen at the front passenger area of the car. When it’s cold, strap your baby in snugly first, then put blankets over the baby. If you borrow a car seat, make sure that it’s not more than 6 years old and was never in a crash (even if it looks OK, it could be structurally unsound). Avoid seats that are missing parts or aren’t labeled with the manufacture date and model number (you’ll have no way to know about recalls).
Convertible seats face toward the rear until your baby is at least 2 years old or has reached the maximum weight and height limits recommended by the manufacturer. A child who reaches the height and weight Also, check the seat for the manufacturer’s limits before age 2 is safest in a bigger recommended “expiration date.” If you have convertible seat and kept rear facing. Kids any doubts about the seat’s history, or if it’s who are small can remain in rear-facing seats cracked or shows signs of wear and tear,

don’t use it. Ask at your prenatal classes, health care provider’s office, hospital, or insurance company about rental or loan programs for car seats — they’re quite common. When buying a new seat, it’s important to remember that there isn’t one type of seat that’s safest or best; get one that fits and can be correctly installed in your car. And higher price doesn’t necessarily indicate a seat’s quality — it could simply mean the seat has added features that you may or may not want or use. Also, be sure to register your new seat so you can be notified of any problems or recalls. The most common problem involving car seats is improper installation (according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the majority of all car seats are installed incorrectly). Recently, LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) car seats have become standard in the United States, but a large percentage of these seats are improperly installed too. Don’t trust illustrations or store displays. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions (and keep them handy). Ask your doctor or nurse about local resources where your car seat can be checked by someone specifically trained to evaluate car seat installations. Many hospitals, police and fire stations, and even car dealerships offer this type of service for free. Make sure that the evaluation is done by someone trained and experienced. If you’re bringing your baby home from the intensive care unit, bring the car seat to the hospital ahead of time, so the staff can see if it will work for your baby. If special health concerns rule out a standard restraint, ask your child’s doctor to recommend car seats for children with special needs. For more information on the proper use of child safety seats, read our article on auto safety. First-Time Feelings - Don’t be surprised if 20 April 2018 | PB Parenting |
you have mixed emotions as you bring your baby home, especially if this is your first child. You’ll likely be nervous. In fact, you may actually feel terrified as you realize that you’ve given up a certain amount of control over your life. If your baby wasn’t with you much at the hospital, you may not know what sort of schedule your little bundle of joy will keep. But you’ll know before long — although babies’ schedules do change a lot during those early months. You’ll be less stressed if you don’t overschedule yourself and can go with the flow. Depending upon your labor and delivery experience, you may feel physically drained and sore. Your hormones may be struggling to catch up, too. Meanwhile, your partner may feel a little left out if you’re totally engrossed with the baby. You might have other kids awaiting the arrival of this newest family member. Or you may be dealing with a pet who’s wondering what’s suddenly drawn everyone’s attention. And the expectations of new grandparents, competitive siblings, or friends can also make the homecoming stressful. Your baby’s first extended crying period at home will be difficult. Remember: young babies typically cry for 1 to 5 hours within a 24-hour period, and can’t always be calmed. Crying usually decreases gradually after the first several weeks. Although it may seem impossible now, in a few months it will be difficult to recall your baby’s seemingly endless crying episodes. The Home Front - Introducing your baby to others at home can be challenging. If you have other kids, be sure to spend some quality time with each of them. Some parents bring home gifts from the new baby for big brothers and sisters. At first, you can expect some jealousy, especially if the main focus of your attention for several years suddenly has new competition. Encourage

your baby because a newborn baby’s immune system is not fully developed.
If you have a pet, ask your partner to bring home a blanket with the baby’s scent on it and place it near the pet — even before leaving the hospital. Then, when you come home, the pet will already be somewhat familiar with the baby. But remember to never leave pets alone with newborns.
When to Call the Doctor - Your baby’s health care provider expects calls from new parents on many topics, including breastfeeding and health concerns (for more on newborn care, visit the Pregnancy & Newborns section). They’d rather have you call than worry about something needlessly.
Family and Friends - Ask your partner to be the gatekeeper for visitors and to limit the number of guests at first. You’ll be glad later on if you take some time now to rest and become comfortable with your new situation. Although babies typically aren’t shy around strangers for the first 3 months or so, they may become overstimulated and tired if too many people are around.
If you wonder whether you should call the doctor’s office, do it, especially if you see something unexpected or different that concerns you. Call if you see any of these signs: • Rectal temperature of 100.4°F (38°C) or higher (in babies younger than 2 months) • Symptoms of dehydration (crying without tears, sunken eyes, a depression in the soft spot on baby’s head, no wet diapers in 6 to 8 hours) • A soft spot that bulges when your baby’s quiet and upright • A baby that is difficult to rouse rapid or labored breathing (call 911 if your baby has breathing difficulty and begins turning bluish around the lips or mouth) • Repeated forceful vomiting or an inability to keep fluids down • Bloody vomit or stool • More than eight diarrhea stools in 8 hours If your concern is urgent, call your doctor and take your child to the emergency room. Remember, with young infants, minor conditions can sometimes change quickly.
If you have voice mail or a telephone answering machine, consider changing your message to give the vital statistics of your new arrival. You might say something like: “Our newest family member has arrived. Her name is Julia Marie; she was born on Tuesday, and weighed 7 pounds, 10 ounces. We’re all fine and adjusting to our new life. If you’d like us to call you back when it’s convenient, please leave your name and number.” Don’t be shy about accepting visitors slowly. Ask anyone who’s ill to wait until they’re feeling well and no longer contagious before they visit. You shouldn’t hesitate to ask visitors to wash their hands before holding
