How soon can me and baby go visit people. He's two weeks old and I gave birth vaginally with no problems I'm not bleeding anymore so when can I at least go to the store
I'm old school. I don't take baby around folks, unless to the Dr, until 1 month. People are nasty. I'll sit outside for fresh air and natural sunlight, but that's it.
@babyrobinson0316, hahaha so many myths. I would probably still try and keep baby covered while out though. Only because so many people wil try and go to touch them! And so many people don't cover their mouth while coughing and sneezing and flu is still going around pretty big even though it's so late in the "season" for it
@rochelleyayy, ok we've been out to the doctor but that's it not for long tho but I need to go to the store and I'd rather be safe than sorry
@candacelouise, old people are weird lol but I see people out a lot with newborns I just wanna be sure
I went like the next day or two after I had my kids I had stuff to do and they are both fine
@ashsloan, oh I looked horrible right after lol now I look more like myself
@babyrobinson0316, I've heard 10 days is what they say is best. Some say after their first shots at a month. But fresh air and getting exposed to things is good for their immune system!
@chinue, yea I don't think people holding him is ok I was more worried about the outdoor air and weather because he's so young
