Parenting Your Baby In Their First 6 Weeks

Your child: The first 6 weeks

Your child: The first 6 weeks

Ministry of Health video - transcript available at the Ministry of Health website [1].

In this video, we meet Monique and Paulo and their 6 week old baby, Peyton. Hear Monique's advice about looking after yourself after baby is born and how your whānau and partner can support you. A Well Child Tamariki Ora nurse describes what happens during her visits to mum and baby. We see how Peyton is kept safe during sleep. Monique talks about breastfeeding and how breastmilk is perfect for Peyton.
