During the first 6 months, pacifiers are helpful for soothing and decreasing the chance of SIDS, the sudden, unexpected and unexplained death of an apparently healthy baby. Extended use may lead to feeding and swallowing problems and can pose a safety risk. It could even impact your baby’s facial development.

Stop daytime use of the pacifier by 6 months of age to avoid mouth injuries from falling with a pacifier in the mouth.

Stop using a pacifier for naps/nighttime around 12 months. This will help them develop a mature swallow pattern to safely advance to a variety of textured foods.

Always contact your pediatrician with any questions or concerns regarding your child's pacifier use.

To be able to identify a reading problem in their child, parents need to have a sense of the milestones of early literacy. If you have any questions or concerns about your child’s literacy development, talk with your child’s doctor, teacher, or a speech and language specialist. The sooner your child gets the help they need, the easier it will be for your child to learn.

Anorexia nervosa, the most common eating disorder, is self-imposed starvation, usually by a young woman who is otherwise high-functioning. Personality types more likely to develop the disorder include athletes, perfectionists, and over-achievers. They are driven to maintain a dangerously low body weight because of a distorted self-image. Detecting anorexia can be very difficult because it typically affects high-performing kids.

Review this quick guide about Anorexia Nervosa. If you think your child may be anorexic, contact your child’s pediatrician when you first start noticing signs.

What happens during the first few years sets the stage for the rest of a child's life. More than 95 percent of a child's brain is formed during this critical period, and a child's experiences irreversibly affect how the brain develops - for better or worse. Positive, responsive parenting during the early years creates the strong parent-child bonds that promote healthy brain development. When families read aloud to their young children, they can give them a better start to life.

Use these tips to create an environment at home that fosters early literacy and aids in building strong-parent bonds through reading aloud and spending time together.
