Be sure your baby has the second newborn screening test. The first test was done by a heel stick in the hospital before your baby came home. The second test is done at the first well baby check-up, usually at 1-2 weeks of age. If you have moved or changed doctors or aren’t sure this test was done, please check right away. Call your clinic or doctor and make arrangements to get the second newborn screening done as soon as possible. These check-ups or screenings can catch any problems. Many can be completely corrected if found early. At this time, it’s also a good idea to ask about immunizations for your baby which should start when your baby is 1- 2 months old. To see an immunization chart, go to the official web site for immunizations: http://www.cdc.gov/nip/recs/child-schedule.htm
