Well Child Visits For Your Newborn, Toddler, Or Child
-
Routine well-child visits are scheduled to check growth and development, to answer your questions, concerns and give immunizations. Your child will need wellness checkups at ages 2 weeks, 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months, 15 months, 18 months, 2 years, 2 1/2 years, 3 years, 4 years, and 5 years. This helps with early detection of disease to begin necessary treatment as early as possible.
These visits will be frequent in the first two years of life because so much is happening with the growth and development of your child. As your child gets older, these visits will become less frequent.
Nutrition, development milestones, accident prevention, and discipline are several topics discussed at well-child visits. This is your time to address these concerns with your pediatrician.
