I took my daughter out when she was 2 weeks old. She’s perfectly happy and healthy and is now 2 months old. You’re far from a bad mom.

My husband and I took her to the outdoor farmers market when she was ten days old. Seven weeks old today and thriving! She loves target trips with mom 😂♥️ it’s not like you’re asking strangers to kiss and hold your baby. Live your life!

We took our baby to church the Sunday after he was born. He was 5 days old. 🤷🏽‍♀️

He’s only 8 weeks old now and he’s probably been to the grocery store 20 times.

I waited six weeks to go out… I wanted to get to know baby, understand his cries and just be generally comfortable with him so that I didn’t get overwhelmed 😊
You’re the mama! It’s your choice and I’m sure your baby will be just fine!!

I couldn’t stand staying in my house for that long😅 we took her out within the first week but just limited who was close to her & holding her. She’s 5wks old now and has been perfect☺️

We took ours out like 3 days after being home because we needed groceries... 🤣🤣

It was about a week and I had to go to Walmart. I kept the carseat cover on the whole time. He's been completely fine

We took ours out at 11 days old. Now at 7 weeks, we’ve taken him everywhere including stores and restaurants. We do take precautions such as keeping him in his bassinet stroller, not using public changing tables, and using hand sanitizer before touching him. Trust your own judgement, everyone has different levels of comfort.

I had to go to the grocery store after discharge he was three days old. We’re 10 weeks now and we’ve had at least one outing a week since he was born.

My baby is 2mo old he's been to two fairs, swimming, camping, to a car race and took his first tractor ride labor day weekend... He is healthy and strong and developjng rapidly. He's meeting older milestones. So do what you feel works. My pediatrician said as long as it's safe and you don't end up in the ER. Your fine.

I had to go to the grocery store the day I was discharged from the hospital with her. We go out regularly, walks or trips to the store just to get out and moving around. The first two weeks, not as much because I had an emergency C-section and was pretty sore, but very regularly since then. We went to the local fair, camping, all sorts of stuff. My teenage sister lives with me, so life didn't stop when baby was born. Whatever you are comfortable with. You can still take precautions when in public. Not letting strangers in babes face, washing/sanitizing your own hands if you're been touching things. Do what feels comfortable for you and your baby and you will be alright.

I think it’s totally fine! I do second the comment about not using public changing tables though. My SIL is a nurse and she says they are a total germ trap and can make babies very sick

I went out at 2 weeks because in doing it all alone with my husband being stationed across the country lol if you got shit to do, you got shit to do lol

Like a week

Yeah.. I went out like the first week lmao. I hated being at home. Even going to the grocery store was exciting for me lmao

I took my baby out at 3 weeks

On day 4 we were out and about! I think getting out is great for your own sanity and baby will be fine. U get to pick the environment, how crowded it is, if anyone can get close or touch baby. Live ur life girl, it’s ur baby don’t feel like you need to take other people’s unsolicited advice

We took our daughter out to dinner at less than a week old. Lol guess I'm a bad mom too 😁 but I'm totally fine with that 😉
