🎥 First part of our video on common newborn skin conditions

Many skin issues in newborns have similar origins, mostly related to the immaturity of their skin and the maternal hormones still present after birth.
Newborn skin eruptions may appear at birth or within the first few weeks.
They are harmless, temporary, and require no treatment.

• Infant acne
Small red or white spots, mainly on the face.
Very common, completely harmless, and should not be squeezed or touched.

• Milia
Tiny white bumps caused by small deposits of keratin.
Usually on the nose and cheeks, disappearing on their own.
Do not touch them.

• Erythema toxicum neonatorum
Occurs from birth up to the first 3 weeks.
Despite the name, it is not toxic, causes no discomfort, and needs no treatment.
Can appear as large red patches that sometimes cover the face and body, appearing, fading, and reappearing — all completely normal.

✨ Stay tuned for Part 2! More reassuring and useful info for parents is coming soon.
See you soon!

🌟 After a busy start to the school year, we’re back with one of the hottest topics for parents: newborn temperature! 🌡️👶

What Parents Need to Know 🌡️👶

At birth, babies go from a warm 37°C environment in the womb to around 24–25°C outside, a transition that requires a lot of energy. A newborn’s temperature is closely monitored during their maternity stay. Once at home, if your newborn is full-term, healthy, and of normal weight, routine temperature checks are not necessary.

⚠️ Warning signs to watch for:
Unusual sleepiness, irritability, poor feeding, vomiting, or unexplained crying. If you notice any of these, check your baby’s temperature under the armpit with a digital thermometer.

💡 Normal range: 36.5°C – 37.5°C
• Below 36.5°C → place your baby skin-to-skin and recheck in 30 minutes
• Above 37.5°C → uncover your baby and offer the breast or a bottle, then recheck in 30 minutes

🔥 At 38°C or higher:
• Under 1 month → contact your pediatrician immediately or go to the emergency department

A deviation from the normal temperature range in a newborn may indicate a maternal-fetal infection and requires prompt evaluation by a pediatrician.

• 1–3 months → contact your pediatrician within 24 hours and follow their instructions while waiting

👶 Special considerations:
Premature babies or those with low birth weight are more vulnerable and need more frequent temperature monitoring during the first days of life.

✅ Temperature is a simple, reliable indicator of your baby’s health. Always check it if you notice any unusual behavior.

⭐️ Do you know Dr. Leboyer? Father of gentle birth, inspiring modern baby care practices.

Dr. Frédérick Leboyer, a French obstetrician-gynecologist, was the first to introduce a birth bath in the 1970s.

💡 His idea: to gently immerse the newborn in warm water right after birth, recreating the sensations of the womb and supporting a gentle transition into extra-uterine life.

Of course, medical emergencies sometimes make it impossible for the birth to take place this way, which does not call the practices into question.

Today, the Thalasso Baby Bath continues this philosophy of gentle birth, while being precise and therapeutic.
As a french pediatric nurse, I use it as a care tool for families, helping parents to pause, look at their baby, and support bonding from the very first days.

⚠️ This bath is reserved for trained professionals: pediatric nurses, midwives, or other paramedical professionals, to ensure a safe and respectful experience for both baby and parents.

🔎Is there something you’d like to know about the therapeutic baby bath?
Feel free to ask me about it during postnatal visits!

⚡️ Newborn Digestive Issues – What’s Normal? 🌸

👶 Today we’re talking about spit-ups, stools, and colic.

✨ Spit-ups
Small milk reflux is very common and harmless, caused by the baby’s immature stomach.
👉 Take breaks during feeds, burp your baby, and keep them upright for 20 min before laying them down.
⚠️ If vomiting is forceful, projectile, and happens several times a day → see your doctor.

✨ Stools
Breastfed babies often have frequent, liquid stools (sometimes after every feed) = normal ✅
⚠️ Diarrhea = change in frequency/consistency + fever, vomiting, or dehydration → consult a doctor.

✨ Colic
Baby cries, turns red, passes gas… uncomfortable but harmless!
👉 Try baby-sling, probiotics, and accept help if needed.
💡 Good news: colic usually disappears by 3 months.

💛 Talk to your pediatrician, and feel free to request a home visit for extra support.

Next chapter in our newborn essentials series…
🎥 Vitamin K & Vitamin D: What You Need to Know from Birth

👶 At birth, your baby receives a vitamin K injection, given intramuscularly.
This vitamin is essential for blood clotting and helps prevent internal bleeding, which can sometimes occur in newborns.
✅ This is a routine and very important measure.

☀️ Vitamin D is given orally, every day.
It plays a key role in:
• growth,
• bone development,
• and a healthy immune system.

💧 The dosage depends on how your baby is fed, and sometimes on their overall health — always based on medical advice:
• 🍼 800 IU/day for breastfed babies (breast milk contains very little vitamin D),
• 🍼 400 IU/day for formula-fed babies (formula is fortified with vitamin D),
• 👶 And sometimes higher doses for premature babies, those with growth delays, or in special cases.

💡 A little tip to make giving vitamin D easier:
Put a few drops of milk in a teat along with the vitamin dose — this helps avoid choking and makes it easier to swallow.

💫 Umbilical Cord Care – What to Know

🎥 In episode 2 of our series, we talked about umbilical cord care!
Today, we’re focusing on how to care for it during those precious first few weeks of life.

✨Here’s how to keep it clean and safe:

✔️ Clean once a day with mild soap and water or saline or a gentle antiseptic
✔️ Dry the base thoroughly
✔️ Keep the diaper folded below the stump
✔️ Avoid covering it with tight clothes

📍 Watch for signs of infection:
🔸 Redness spreading around the belly button
🔸 Foul smell or pus
🔸 Ongoing bleeding

🔸⚠️ If the cord hasn’t fallen off after 3 weeks, this is not necessarily a sign of infection, but it’s important to mention it to your pediatrician for proper evaluation.

🩺 When in doubt, speak to your pediatrician or your paediatric nurse.

💛 As with any baby care, always wash your hands before and after handling the cord.

🎥 Thank you Dr for the helpful reminders!
✨ See you 🔜 for Episode 3 of our Baby Care Minute 💬

💡 Newborn Jaundice – What to look out for at home

Together with , pediatrician and colleague at , we’re launching a 🇫🇷 video series lovingly designed to support you during those first tender weeks and months with your baby.

🌟 Our goal is simple: to share clear, practical advice to help make this new chapter a little smoother and less overwhelming.

🎥 In our first episode, we talk about newborn jaundice — something many parents face in the early days.

🕑 The most serious cases often appear within the first 48 hours at the hospital and are usually well managed.

🏠 But once you’re back home, it’s important to keep an eye out for signs that may need attention:

🔸 Yellowish skin or whites of the eyes
🔸 A baby who is very sleepy or feeding poorly
🔸 Trouble regaining birth weight
🔸 Fewer wet diapers or dark urine

👩‍⚕️ That’s also where home visits can make a real difference. They allow early detection of warning signs and help guide you through what’s normal — and what’s not — during these crucial first days.

If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to see your pediatrician. They can do a blood test to check bilirubin levels and determine if treatment is needed.

💛 This was your Jaundice Minute — stay tuned for more episodes!

🇬🇧 🎉 15 years as a pediatric nurse! 🎉

Exactly 15 years ago, after 3 years of nursing studies, 4,500 hours of training, and obtaining my 🇫🇷 Diploma in Nursing, I specialized in pediatric nursing—a wish that began when I was 5, after meeting my little brother in the neonatology unit. This 1-year training (1,500 hours) allowed me to deepen my knowledge in areas such as:

🍼 Child development and needs
👶 Pediatrics and neonatology care
🤱 Breastfeeding and infant nutrition
🛡️ Prevention and parental support

Having worked in Paris, London, and Dubai, I feel lucky every day to still take so much joy in this profession.

🇫🇷 🎉 15 ans de diplôme de puéricultrice ! 🎉

Il y a 15 ans, après 3 ans d’études en soins infirmiers, 4500 heures de formation et l’obtention du Diplôme d’État d’Infirmier, je me spécialisais en puériculture, un souhait ancré depuis mes 5 ans, après avoir rencontré mon petit frère en service de néonatalogie.
Cette formation d’1 an (1 500 heures) m’a permis d’approfondir des domaines comme :

🍼 Le développement et les besoins de l’enfant
👶 Les soins en pédiatrie et néonatalogie
🤱 L’allaitement et l’alimentation infantile
🛡️ La prévention et l’accompagnement parental

Après avoir travaillé en France, Angleterre et Dubaï, je me sens chanceuse chaque jour de pouvoir toujours prendre autant de plaisir à ce métier.

⭐️ Supporting Mom Postpartum: Simple Questions for Big Impact ⭐️

Here are three questions you could ask your partner every morning in the postpartum period:

1. How are you feeling today?
Checking in with how she’s feeling sets the tone for the day—whether it’s a good start or if she needs extra care.

2. Do you have any physical pain anywhere?
Pain relief often gets overlooked or dismissed as “normal,” but in the 21st century, there’s no reason to let physical discomfort linger. Let’s address it.

3. What do you want for breakfast?
A nutritious breakfast is key to starting the day right.
It’s important to fuel both the body and mind as she recovers.

These few minutes of listening, attention, and care for mom at the start of the day can have a huge impact 🙌
