Michael Smith+FollowWhen Your Partner Won’t See Your Baby’s Struggles: Navigating Underweight ConcernsIt’s heartbreaking when you notice your baby isn’t gaining enough weight, but your spouse just doesn’t seem to see the problem. I remember feeling so alone, watching our little one’s tiny frame and worrying every night. I tried sharing my concerns, hoping for support, but it felt like I was talking to a wall. The fear and frustration built up, and I started doubting myself. Was I overreacting? Or just being too anxious? But deep down, I knew my instincts were right. If you’re facing this, know you’re not alone. Trust your gut, seek advice from your pediatrician, and keep the conversation open with your partner. Your baby’s health is worth fighting for.

Dr. Ryan Newton+FollowWhy 39 Weeks Matters for Baby’s HealthTurns out, those last few weeks in the womb are a big deal! Full-term pregnancy is now officially 39 weeks, not 37. Babies born at 39-40 weeks have healthier brains, lungs, and livers, and are less likely to have learning or health issues later. Unless there’s a medical reason, docs say don’t schedule that induction or C-section before 39 weeks. Waiting just a little longer really does make a difference! #PregnancyFacts #FullTerm #BabyHealth #Health90Share

Even their clothes and playgrounds are loaded with this stuff. Scientists are worried about possible links to health issues like ADHD, autism, and even preterm births. Some states are cracking down on plastics, but switching to stainless steel bottles and natural fabrics can help protect your little one.
