Parenting Tips for Your 11 Month Old Baby

Watch for signs of an ear infection. If your baby tugs at his ears or has a cold that lasts several days, it may be an ear infection. Ear infections can affect a child’s hearing.

Being sick a lot affects your baby’s growth and learning. If your baby acts, looks, or feels like he is sick, please call the doctor or nurse right away.
