When you first bring your baby home, be sure to have a space for him or her to sleep. Keep in mind, infants should be placed on their sides or backs while sleeping. Expect to feed your baby every two hours. When bathing your new baby, keep the water off of the tummy cord stump and keep it dry.

When you first bring your baby home you should sleep when the baby sleeps. It is very important for a new mother to get her rest as well, it becomes very hard to cope when your are just as tired as the baby.

Take advice with a grain of salt. Everyone is going to give you advice. This doesn't mean you shouldn't take it. It just means you should use your best judgment.

Don't be afraid or feel guilty in asking for help so that you can have some time to sleep or relax. Otherwise do what feels right or ask a doctor/nurse.
