from Merging Into Life · host AAA Northeast

Having a baby is one of the biggest life changes you'll ever face, and when it comes to advice and opinions on parenthood, the noise never stops. Between caring for a new life and surviving the sleepless nights, it can be nearly impossible to know what decisions are actually right for your family. In this episode of Merging Into Life, host Sabrina Pierotti sits down with Dr. Carole Keim, board-certified pediatrician, author, and host of The Baby Manual podcast, to cut through the noise and talk about what first-time parents actually need to know. From safe sleep and sleep training to postpartum emotions and building your support system, Dr. Keim brings calm, evidence-based answers to the questions new parents are often too nervous to ask. Because when it comes to raising a baby, there really are no stupid questions.DisclaimerThe views and opinions expressed in this podcast do not constitute medical advice and are not necessarily the views of AAA Northeast, AAA and or its affiliates. The Baby Manual by Dr. Carole Keim Dr. Carole Keim's website: carolekeim.com
