Going out

How soon can you take your baby outside like to the store and everything?
I heard once that you should wait like a month is this true?

A month is always best but it really depends on the health of your baby. If it has a weak immune system definitely keep it out of the public for its first month if possible till its immune system has strengthened. If your baby is perfectly healthy its okay to take it o out as long as you take normal precautions. Like making sure you stay away from sick people and use hand sanitizer.

Its all up to you. I took both my sons out before a month old. I just had my se ond son 3 weeks ago and we were out and about the first week. Both my sons had jaundice so for the firsr week we were t the docs everyday so seeing we were already out we would grab things we needed here and there.
