If things feel harder at two months, you’re not imagining it. Babies change fast at this stage. Here’s what’s normal and what to watch for.

Another infant CPR class tonight. We went over what to do in those critical moments, choking, not breathing, in a way that’s simple and easy to remember.

A quick spring update from our office at DVPA

Influenza B is still very active and hasn’t dropped off yet — we’re diagnosing it regularly. Vaccinated kids can still get it, but in general they tend to have a shorter and milder course, which is consistent with what we’re seeing.

Along with that, we’re continuing to see a fair amount of strep throat. One thing we often point out, if your child has a sore throat without a cough, strep moves higher on the list. That’s something we can check quickly in the office.

There’s also a gastrointestinal illness going around right now that’s lasting longer than parents expect, not the typical 24-hour bug, but a few days. Hydration really becomes the focus here. Small, frequent fluids work best, and our phone nurses can help guide you through exactly what to do at home.

We are still seeing RSV as well. The New Jersey Department of Health recommends RSV immunization for eligible infants through April, so if your child qualifies, it is still recommended to receive it.

With spring starting, allergy season is also picking up. If your child tends to get seasonal allergies, it’s worth starting antihistamines early rather than waiting for symptoms to ramp up, they work better when used consistently during the season.

And one quick office update — DVPA is now open later on Mondays until 7 PM, which should make it easier to come in after school or work for sick visits or last-minute concerns.

Our next infant CPR class is this Tuesday, April 7th at 5:00 PM.

As always, if you’re not sure what your child has or symptoms are lingering, give us a call, we’re happy to help you think it through.

Good news from DVPA — we’re now open later on Mondays (until 7 PM).

We know it’s not always easy to get to the office during the day with work, school, and everything else going on. These additional hours will give families more flexibility for sick visits and last-minute concerns without having to rush or miss important commitments.

We’re always looking for ways to make care more accessible and convenient for our patients.
