Blue Book
We mentioned the first check for baby on the previous page, and this will be the first of several health checks for baby that will be recorded in baby’s personal health record (Blue Book).
This is a great resource to have a look through. It provides guidelines regarding baby’s health and development and prompts on when baby is due for their next check-up.
The scheduled health check for baby include – 4,6,12, and 18 months, 2 years, 3 years, and 4 years.
