Once your baby arrives, your delivery nurse will contact The Children’s Clinic physician on call. A clinic physician will examine your baby within 24 hours of his/her birth. Each day of your hospital stay, one of our physicians will see you and your baby to discuss important feeding and health issues. Routinely babies are seen within one to two weeks post discharge from the hospital for a well baby check-up. However, breast fed babies will sometimes need a visit to the office sooner.
