Most new parents can only wish that their new baby came with a handbook. Many of us (I know I did) obsess over milestones and making sure we are “doing it right”. Now that I have been through the new baby thing 3 times, I can honestly tell you that there is no “right” way and every single child is different. What is right for one, may be wrong for the other. However, it is always nice to have some help and references. That is why I love these Parenting Cheat Sheets – they aren’t really cheat sheets, per se – as much as some helpful charts for parents to reference!

  1. On the fever cheat sheet, you should add that ibuorofen (advil) and acetaminophen (tylenol) can be alternated every 3 hours to keep fevers down. Our pediatrician told us this AFTER our daughter experienced a complex febrile seizure (+10 minutes). Also, febrile seizures can occur with a relatively low temperature too. Our pediatrician told us that seizures occur mostly from a rapid spike/change in temperature. When our daughter experienced her seizure her temperature never went over 101°.

    It was a very scary episode that resulted in a call to 911 that had we known that information we could have prevented.

  2. Thank You!!! These are Awesome My husband and I have just started Foster Care for children birth to 5 years and this will help. Our natural children are 30 yrs and 28 yrs SO we needed some help!!!
