Once baby starts getting full baths, how often should you bathe them?

He has always loved water and playing with bubbles but now cries from the time he gets in the bath to the time he gets out of the bath. We have never been big on bathing frequently because we felt it was unnecessary but since starting daycare a little...

I breastfeed my baby, she’s 2 weeks and I’ve noticed she’s been spitting up. However I don’t know what’s normal. I plan on calling my pediatrician first thing in the morning.

My little girl Kelsey was diagnosed with Pulmonary Valve Stenosis. They say we have to keep a close eye on it and test often. In another couple months they will check again and if the valve has not improved with her growth she will need intervention. The first step is a balloon up into her thigh to her heart to open...
