    Called 9-11 on daughter

    @jar1437 I work at a psych hospital doing intakes, including pediatric intakes. You can talk to a hospital social worker who can connect you to services as well.

    New parent tip from pediatrician

    @grandma5657 I’ve always found that it happens intuitively. They usually wake up, need a change, then want to eat. Then they are happy and relaxed enough to play. Then they tire themselves out and are ready for a nap again.
