What items are most important to have...

Iron and lead, it still is a good idea ... .

To have it checked since your LO probably spends time outside of your home.

3. Does your LO take an evening...

And if so, just one time.
get home with LO and what time do they go to bed? My husband picks her up and I'm usually home by 5 times? Occassionally, LO will wake up but rarely.

DH is back at work and my appt is tomorrow. I'm debating if I should take LO with me or have DH meet me there to watch LO during the appt.

The pediatrician recommended waiting before bringing LO to restaurants, coffee shops, stores due to colds and pertussin. But, I am curious how long others waited to bring LO out..?

When we went out we would just put up a blanket over his carrier so no one could touch him .
Then I was so stir crazy that I could not stay home any longer.
I only took LO when he needed to go the pedi up until he was a month old.
