A couple years later and this is still very good and important advice. We never judge any other creature in the animal kingdom for wanting to protect their babies, so we should not judge moms who want to wait a couple months for contact to prevent illness. Humans are dirty, the world is dirty. Babies are slowly building immunity over time and people need to remember that we must be their best defence until they can defend themselves with their own immune system. ❤ Thank you for this video
I wish I would have watched this before my baby was born. He is a month now but at 10 days old he came down with a 101.5 fever and in the emergency room. It was horrific as I had no idea about any of the work ups, or any experience, or knowledge on newborn illness. Needless to say my baby ended up having a bladder and kidney infection plus viral meningitis. My family and I never even left the house besides home depot to grab one thing and baby was in a carrier on me. Thank God has fully recovered and thriving but I find myself so worried about germs everywhere. Where as with my first I was so laid back and just enjoyed the newborn stage. Thank you for this video ❤
I want to thank u for posting this video my daughter just had her baby 4 days ago so I will definitely be passing ur video on some gd details are in ut video that will definitely 💖 save a life
if under three months, make sure to confirm with rectal as I have seen many instances where checking forehead and ear was falsely LOW and child actually had a roaring fever.
Thank you I'll be having my baby soon and I honestly don't want anyone touching or anything of my baby without my permission but I don't want to be a b****. I Kno everyone has this thing because they had kids they Kno it all but this is my baby and no one else's
Great info! I'm wondering thoughts on allowing say nieces and nephews to see and meet baby? For example kids that are attending in person school, after school activities, spending time with their friends. With Covid how do you safely allow cousins to meet and when?
So this is a great question. I generally think of COVID how i think of precautions during any viral season. The reason i think this way is children are still considered low risk for complications. Not low risk for getting the virus, but low risk of getting complications IF they get the virus. (Check out my COVID January update for more numbers). That being said, i think the decision to see nieces and nephews should be made like we weren't in a pandemic. Would you have allowed them to see baby in middle of flu season? RSV season? These are viruses that are way more harmful for babies. So, the decision to allow unvaccinated to COVID nieces and nephews is made by understanding risk. This is such a personal choice. We allowed Ryaan's cousins who attend school to see Ryaan throughout this pandemic, but maybe other families would not. So, looking at risk. The way to reduce risk would be not seeing other children at all. THis may not be feasible OR may not be what you want. Next level or risk reduction would be allowing the young cousins there but masking them and not allowing them to hold baby. Next level would be masking and allowing to hold. Next level would be no restrictions. It's important to decide what's best between you and your partner. Personally, Im not making that decision for my families because everyone has various levels of comfort and weighing risk and benefit (risk being covid, benefit being socializing with family)
Glad I found this. My 2week old has Had a cold for 6days now. We have an older daughter in prescool who has Had the sniffles for a month. We told her to only kiss feet or clothes, but She snook a few cuddles and bam. Luckily no temperature. Can't wait for her to be Better and go for a Little walk in the countryside with both girls. So hard to keep them apart. I Just pray no crytical viruses Will be brought from prescool in the next...at least 2months?! I know that's a lot to ask, since as our ped says, "no healthy Kid around these days"
Gosh, I know it's so hard to keep sick kiddos apart but we do the best we can! So glad you found this helpful. I hope both of your little ones feel better soon!
My baby will be here any day now and my in laws want us to come stay the night on Christmas Eve it’s kinda been our tradition the past few years but there will be around 9 people staying in the house not including me and my boyfriend and she won’t even be 2 weeks yet what should I do 🥺 I really don’t want my baby getting sick… especially her being that little.
Very helpful video! Thank you! What is your recommendation in regards to nonvaccinated school aged cousins meeting a newborn? Their parents may be vaccinated but the children won’t be and I don’t imagine my family would be very happy about the kids being masked while visiting for a weekend :(.

We have family flying into town and they are excited to meet our will be 12 week old. They are not vaccinated and obviously won’t be quarantined as they’re flying and do things like going out to restaurants, 2 year old in daycare, etc. we don’t do those things and have only allowed grandparents to meet the baby after quarantining and they are now vaccinated. What are your thoughts on them meeting the baby masked? I’m leaning towards outside, masked, no holding but my husband feels it’s a little strict to say no holding. I am also worried about how to handle their 2 year old being around the baby.
Well, thank you for the amazing explanation..so the deal is to make sure the baby is as less exposed to alot of people as possible? And that we should wait atleast gor the baby to be more than 30 days old so that they don’t get so workedup when they got a fever.. thank you again. This has been helpful 🙏🏽
I’m due Nov 3 and we have an essential trip from TN to MA from Dec 22-28. So depending on when baby is born, they could be 10 weeks or they could be 5 weeks old. I plan to babywear as much as possible (no car seat or stroller), and we bought first class airline tickets specifically to be around less people. Is there anything else we can do to boost our baby’s immunity or prevent people from coming close before we take this trip?
Thanks! I'm due in a couple of weeks and a bit preocupied with visitors. This will be the first grandkid for my in-laws, so I feel kind of guilty for not wanting them to come for the first weeks and also not touching her, but it doesn't feel right yet. My MIL already has two doses of the vaccine but she still goes to cafés and other places regularly🙄 and my FIL will probably have only 1 dose by then, plus they live with my younger brothers-in-law, who go to college in person. So I just don't trust that they won't spread COVID to my baby! My mom on the other hand is poised to stay with us for a couple of weeks, but she will be fully vaccinated by then and also plans on doing a 10 day preventive quarantine, so it's pretty safe...idk, it's a sensitive topic for sure.
Totally sensitive topic. But to ask, would you have felt this way during a normal flu season and RSV season, which are viruses way more harmful for babies? I think we need to remember what we would have done pandemic or not and stick to it. There are other viruses besides COVID and COVID is the least of my worries (Im way more worried about flu, RSV than I am about COVID for kids). Why..is data isnt showing there to be major concerns one year out for kids. Yes they can get virus, yes they get sick, but complications are so low that to me if a family feels benefits of socialization trump risk of COVID, I can see why.
Thanks for the great info! My daughter is a new mom and our grandson is just days old. We would like to visit but it requires a 2 hr flight - we’re fully vaccinated but the newborn and parents are not vaccinated. My daughter is on the more cautious side and wants us to quarantine before we’re able to hold and be with the newborn. How long would you recommend we quarantine? And could we forego quarantine and double mask instead? Or see the newborn outside vs. inside? I know the CDC and you say that fully vaccinated grandparents could visit inside with their grandkids, but this is with a brand new newborn. We want to respect their wishes but it’d be good to have a little wiggle room. Thanks!!
Honestly your great grandparents. You understand that it's her child and support however she wants to parent her child. I'm trying to get that from my family
@@christengardner1466 thanks for your reply! You tube alerted me to your reply. I think you have to ask the family, what if my baby got sick/caught any virus because of you?! And certainly for the first 2 months, any illness in a baby is high risk/ high alert! So let them mull that over a bit and then take it out of their hands and say that’s why we’re keeping firm boundaries around our little one, especially with it being winter and covid still around, etc etc. When we were deciding how/when to visit our new grandson, the comment, ‘you don’t want to be the one that gets him sick’…really stuck with us. So we stayed away until all were comfortable with visits - masked, etc etc. Congrats and hope the family is supportive!
So I have a question if anyone could answer. I am a mother of soon to be 4 kiddos my 4 baby is due very soon but I have a 1year old and also a 4 & 5 year old that will be attending preschool and there will be a lot of sickness and I am afraid of my newborn being exposed once I give birth and also my 1 year old being exposed so I want to know will my newborn & 1 year old be ok if by any chance they were to be exposed by my toddlers being In school or should I consider homeschooling to prevent the exposure of sickness
Firstly, congratulations on your soon to be newborn! Having older children with a newborn at home is tough when it comes to illness exposure. If your desire is to homeschool, that is one thing, but do not feel like you have to. You can help to protect your baby by encouraging proper hygiene with your older children (hand washing, covering mouths when sneezing/coughing, etc.).
@@pedsdoctalktv thank you so much for the tips I greatly appreciate your advice because I was so lost and didn’t know what to do so thank you this advice goes a long way with me ❤️
Ugh I will have a new born in a couple months and my best friend is historical bc I said idk if I want anyone to hold my baby as a newborn. She literally acts like I’m preventing her from seeing her own child and I’m just super protective already I just don’t know if I want anyone too and she cried and went off on me n saying things like I don’t consider her immediate family but I told her idk if o want my family either holding my new born im not sure I want visitors while my baby is a new born during the most risky time. Advice ?
This is a tough situation for sure. I think responding to her with understanding, but also letting her now that you want to be cautious as you're not sure what you'll be comfortable with those first few weeks. Letting her know that you'll just need time to adjust to everything and to figure out how to best protect your baby's health. I hope this helps!
Hi thank you for this helpful video! I was wondering in regards to a baby being breastfed do you know if mom gets vaccinated will baby have some immunity? Thanks again! 😊
If I have got the pertussis shot during pregnancy and then my baby has his first pertussis shot at 2 months... How much percent is that? 50% + ??? = ???
Your video is really helpful but i do have a question? I need to do driving lessons for few days so i need atleast 1hr everyday can i leave my newborn at home because i need to do these classes?
Baby wearing at the grocery store is super smart. I put some hats on my registry for baby that I'm calling "covid hats". They look like tiny ball caps and have attached plastic/vinyl face shields. People might think I'm crazy but I'm putting my baby in a covid hat around other people. I've had so many close family members tell me they refuse to get vaccinated, but still want to meet my baby. I've flat out told them no. I'm going to require people to show me their vaccine papers before entering my home. It's absolutely ridiculous to me that people would willingly put a baby's health at risk.
Babies can get fever when they cut first teeth. A fever over 104.f rectal you subtract a degree, is a bad sign of an ear infection, which is one of the common ones. it can be from drinking a bottle propped or laying down eating, Never prop a bottle and hold their head above their belly. I would not do a lumbar puncture unless they Arch their back and have a shrill cry or if you touch their back and they scream,. Signs of spinal meningitis. If you protect your child don't over do it, they need to build their own immunity. Wash your hands and wash their bottles with soap and hot water. You can boil them if they are premature or sick. I don't do flu, hep b or pneumonia vaccines, imho weaken the immune system. As long as people wash their hands and are no contagious, or breathe in their face the baby should be fine. Other children touch everything and don't wash their hand. Hand washing has been used for decades and works great. Covid is over now, but during flu season in spring n fall usually is a good time to be a little more clean. I never went by her guidelines and took my kids shopping 3 and 4 days old. My kids were healthy as kids. We have a big family and I didn't worry about sickness. I feel it's over taught now, thanks to media.
Another great read when understanding why I'm choosing to be more lenient with vaccinated individuals BEFORE CDC guidelines are released-www.advisory.com/daily-briefing/2021/03/01/vaccinated-precautions
Thank you for this video! But I'm a little confused and was hoping you could clarify - There is currently still no guidance from the CDC on vaccinated adults mixing with unvaccinated kids (hoping it's coming soon). Dr. Fauci said you still have to be cautious in those situations. Can you provide more info on why/how it is safe to co-mingle when vaccinated ppl can still act as vectors for covid and pass it along to children?
Ture there is no official guidance, but this is looking very promising and risk is low. Transmission data out of Israel is also very promising www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-israel-vaccine-int-idUSKBN2AJ08J. www.sciencenews.org/article/coronavirus-covid-19-pfizer-vaccine-may-reduce-transmission. That being said, masking will always be a recommendation that will be beneficial even after a pandemic, but when everyone is vaccinated, risk is so so low due to low viral load. Sure, its not zero. But, even before the pandemic, people were seeing newborns unmasked and they were at risk of viruses like flu, RSV, so I do believe with a vaccinated individual against COVID, the risk is low enough that a family can decide if they mask or not. Masking will ALWAYS be better than not masking, but even more important is combining it with hygeine, not visiting if you're under the weather or sick (which to me is the most important thing).
A couple years later and this is still very good and important advice. We never judge any other creature in the animal kingdom for wanting to protect their babies, so we should not judge moms who want to wait a couple months for contact to prevent illness. Humans are dirty, the world is dirty. Babies are slowly building immunity over time and people need to remember that we must be their best defence until they can defend themselves with their own immune system. ❤

Glad to hear everything was well in the end

2 week month¿🤔
I want to thank u for posting this video my daughter just had her baby 4 days ago so I will definitely be passing ur video on some gd details are in ut video that will definitely 💖 save a life
As a new mom of a little boy I don’t feel comfortable with booty temperatures so I have invested in a head , ear one
if under three months, make sure to confirm with rectal as I have seen many instances where checking forehead and ear was falsely LOW and child actually had a roaring fever.

Research the Glysophate very bad element and breast feed if at all possible it's great for immunity
Are these kids vaccinated. If not: DEFINITELY not

Wow interesting insights, thanks
Place of worship --> more than 2 months, can we have a number like 3 4 5 months?
Thank so much 🎉 it would be great if you time stamp your videos
Thanks for the suggestion! I time stamp more recent videos but great idea to go back and time stamp older ones, I’ll add that to my to-do list!
Well, thank you for the amazing explanation..so the deal is to make sure the baby is as less exposed to alot of people as possible?

Would you classify side effects of allergies to be a concern for newborn/baby? Runny nose, sneezing, etc.?
Side effects of allergies? Speaking about the baby or a caregiver having it?
For a caregiver or visitor.
If I have got the pertussis shot during pregnancy and then my baby has his first pertussis shot at 2 months...
How much percent is that?
50% + ??? = ???
Do you take them to the closest ER or drive to a childrens hospital over an hr away?

That being said, masking will always be a recommendation that will be beneficial even after a pandemic, but when everyone is vaccinated, risk is so so low due to low viral load. Sure, its not zero. But, even before the pandemic, people were seeing newborns unmasked and they were at risk of viruses like flu, RSV, so I do believe with a vaccinated individual against COVID, the risk is low enough that a family can decide if they mask or not. Masking will ALWAYS be better than not masking, but even more important is combining it with hygeine, not visiting if you're under the weather or sick (which to me is the most important thing).
Why are you listening to fauci lol use common sense ??
