Newborn visits are the beginning of your baby’s care

Newborn visits are the beginning of your baby’s care

Congratulations on the birth of your new baby! Whether this is your first child or an addition to your growing family, every parent wants their new baby to get top-quality pediatric care — and newborn visits are an essential part of that care.

Your newborn visit at Children’s Medical Group should take place 24-48 hours after leaving the hospital or birthing center. To schedule your appointment, all you have to do is call your office directly. Be sure to contact your insurance company and have your baby added to your health plan as well.

Welcome to the Children’s Medical Group family

Our newborn care team is ready to register your new baby and schedule a newborn visit at our office. Please contact us ASAP, and we will take care of the rest. Remember, your baby’s first visit should be scheduled 24–48 hours after leaving the hospital or birthing center.

During your newborn visit, we will perform a thorough physical examination of your baby, check their developmental milestones, measure their height and weight, and assess their feeding, sleeping, and voiding (stooling) habits. If you have medical questions or need newborn care advice, this visit is the perfect place to ask.

We will also review your hospital or birthing center discharge papers to make sure all necessary screenings and vaccines are complete (including a newborn screening/PKU, hearing test, and hepatitis B vaccine). We will also talk about future appointments and a recommended vaccine schedule with you.

We will do our best to prioritize moving you and your baby directly to an exam room when you arrive. Please remember to bring your hospital or birthing center discharge papers, driver’s license, and insurance card with you. 

Before you leave the office, we will schedule your baby’s next set of appointments to ensure they continue meeting their milestones and avoid any vaccine delays — building a healthy connection from the start.
