Your child should have regular health supervision visits for the purpose of keeping track of his/her general health and growth. Our suggested frequency of these visits are as follows:

We generally see your new born baby two to three days after they are discharged from the hospital. This may vary if the mother had a cesarean section which may be in a week.

• First six to seven months- monthly then every two months till age one
• Age one to age two- every three months
• Age two- every four to six months
• Age three- every six months
• Age four- every year this time onward

The Parents concern begins on the first day of life. Their earliest worry is that they are not feeding their newborn enough. From that day on, parent’s fret about their child’s appetite (i.e. they are not getting enough, when to start solids) or that the food they are eating is causing allergies, hyperactivity, or obesity.

The list is so enormous and what makes things worst is when they compare their baby with other babies, whether their own or others.

This preoccupation with eating has caused the family meal to become a battleground over what to eat, when to eat, and how much to eat.
