That's a good question. Well worth looking into. You should ask your Dr the next appt you have.I know I will
I'd call in advance to see how that office does things and make sure they are taking new babies. They can't set up the appointment, but they will tell you what you need to do. Our pediatrician always has a couple of times open every day for a newborn because they have to be seen within 2 days. So for us, when our baby is born we will have to call and set up an appointment before we leave the hospital. The hospital will have a pediatrician to see the baby while you are there. For our first they just asked who we were going to take him to and made sure we set up an appointment before we left. That was all the help they gave us. And that's what they'll do with this one, but that's just so they know if the pediatrician at the hospital needs to see him again before we leave.
