Visiting the pediatrician

#vittoriavitaSurrogateMotherhood

This is the last checkup by the pediatrician before this angel flies home with her parents! When it comes to flying with a newborn, our doctor always gives several recommendations for parents:

• Feed your child at least one hour before the flight departs.
• Feed your baby at least one hour before the plane lands. If you feed them closer to takeoff / landing, the change in barometric pressure may cause vomiting as it affects the baby's stomach.
• Give the baby a pacifier both during departure and during landing because of the changes in air pressure.
