5 Newborn Myths We Need to Stop Believing 🛑

Have you heard any of these old-school myths? Let’s sort facts from fiction:

1. Myth: Babies need water. Fact: Nope! 🍼 Their kidneys aren’t ready for it yet. Breast milk or formula provides all the hydration they need.

2. Myth: Stay inside with a newborn. Fact: Get outside! 🌳 Fresh air is great for everyone’s mental health. Just keep the baby in the shade to avoid sunburn.

3. Myth: Cereal in the bottle helps them sleep. Fact: Studies show this doesn't help sleep and can actually be a choking hazard. ❌

4. Myth: Teething causes fevers. Fact: Drool? Yes. Fussiness? Yes. But a true fever (100.4°F+) is usually an illness, not teeth. 🌡️

5. Myth: Holding a baby spoils them. Fact: IMPOSSIBLE. Snuggling regulates their breathing and heart rate. You cannot spoil a newborn with love! ❤️

Which of these have you heard the most? Let us know in the comments!

On this day, commemorating the life and work of Martin Luther King, Jr., may we remember to teach our children to believe in themselves, their goals and their dreams. Encourage the kids in your life to never give up or let worry take over when something gets difficult.

Fine motor skills development is important for toddlers and young children, but many kids dislike writing tasks. To build strong finger dexterity, try playing with LEGOs (be cautious of the choking hazard with smaller pieces), stringing beads and using dull-tipped scissors to cut construction paper — always supervise for safety and to avoid surprise haircuts!
