Frequently asked questions
You ask, we answer

Why is my baby yellow?
Jaundice is a common newborn condition where the skin or eyes can appear yellow. Jaundice is often completely harmless but there are rare occasions where it is due to a more serious underlying problem.
Book onto our Newborn Navigation course for more information about jaundice.
How long should babies sleep?
There is a wide variety in the answer to this questions with some babies sleeping for up to 20 hours in a 24 hour period and some sleeping far less than this.
Join us on our Newborn Navigation course and our Brainwaves course to learn more about safe sleep for babies and how to promote healthy sleep patterns.
Should I be worried about my baby having a rash?
Rashes are really common in childhood and sometimes can be a symptom of an underlying illness or problem. It is important to consider other symptoms alongside baby rashes and in our courses we will help you to identify rashes and give you information about when you need to seek further advice about a rash.
Our ParentMed Skin Deep course and Baby Bugs Course will give you lots more useful information about rashes and how to manage them.
Is it OK to give my baby paracetamol?
Paracetamol is a useful painkiller and can be used to help babies feel better when they have a high temperature. In babies under 3 months of age you should always seek medical advice if your baby has a temperature over 38 degrees Celsius before giving any paracetamol as they may have a more serious illness.
Learn more about infections in babies in our Newborn Navigation and our Baby Bugs courses.
When is it safe to start weaning?
Babies need to be developmentally ready to start weaning. 6 months is the recommended time to start introducing solid food into your baby’s diet.
Our Gut Feelings course will talk through the evidence base for this and we will tell you stories from our own clinical practice about baby feeding and weaning.
