These middle months of your infant's first year will bring many 'firsts,' including:
- new milestones, like rolling over and sitting up
- starting solid baby foods
- teething
- beginning to sleep all night
In addition to introducing you to these 'firsts,' chapter 7 of The Everything® Father's First Year Book discusses feeding considerations, like continuing to breastfeed or give formula, infant sleep patterns, medical problems, and safety issues.
Do you know why daily tummy time can be important for your baby?
How about what you should do if your baby rolls over on to his stomach when he is sleeping at night? Do you have to roll him back onto his back to reduce his risk of SIDS?
When should you start brushing your infant's teeth or go to the dentist for the first time?
Do you know when you should start using sunscreen?
This chapter of The Everything® Father's First Year Book will answer all of those questions and more.
