Here are a few quick tips:
✔️ Change your baby’s diaper before boarding
✔️ Bring plenty of extra supplies
✔️ Use an FAA-approved car seat when possible
✔️ Help ease ear pressure with feeding or a pacifier

And remember—there’s no such thing as a perfect travel day. Do your best and don’t be afraid to ask for help along the way.

Did you know babies are born with very low levels of vitamin K?

Vitamin K helps the body form blood clots to stop bleeding. Without it, newborns are at risk for a serious condition called vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB)—and in many cases, there are no warning signs.

The vitamin K shot given at birth is a simple way to protect your baby during those first critical weeks of life.

If you have questions about the vitamin K shot or your newborn’s health, we’re here to help every step of the way.

Ever wondered how vaccines are developed and approved before reaching your child?

It’s a process that involves years of research, multiple phases of testing, and continuous safety monitoring—even after approval. By the time a vaccine is recommended for your child, it has gone through extensive review to ensure it’s both safe and effective.

Understanding how vaccines are made can help you feel more confident in the care your child receives.

If you have questions about vaccines or your child’s immunization schedule, we’re here to help.

If your pediatrician mentions “faltering weight,” you may have heard it called “failure to thrive.”

While the name can sound scary, it’s actually a common condition affecting up to 1 in 10 children, and in many cases, it can be addressed with the right care and support.

Faltering weight simply means a child may:
• Not be gaining weight as expected
• Be gaining weight very slowly
• Be losing weight
• Have a noticeable drop in their growth curve

The good news is that your pediatrician can identify the cause and create a plan to help your child get back on track.

At The Children’s Clinic, we’re here to support you every step of the way and help you feel confident in your child’s care.

RSV season is still here, and it remains one of the leading causes of hospitalization in babies under one year old.

The good news is that there are now two effective immunization options available to help protect babies from serious RSV illness.

These options include:
• An RSV immunization for babies and young children
• An RSV vaccine given during pregnancy that protects newborns after birth

Both options can significantly reduce the risk of hospitalization and severe RSV complications.

If you are expecting a baby or caring for an infant, it’s important to understand how these immunizations work and which option may be right for your family.

Our team at The Children’s Clinic is here to help answer your questions and guide you through RSV prevention.

👶 Is homemade baby formula safe?

Babies need a very specific balance of nutrients to grow and stay healthy. While breastmilk naturally provides everything babies need, infant formula is carefully designed to offer complete nutrition when families can’t or choose not to breastfeed.

You may have seen recipes for homemade baby formula online, but these can be risky. Homemade formulas may not provide the right balance of nutrients and could even pose safety concerns for your baby.

That’s why pediatricians recommend using infant formulas that are registered with the FDA, which ensures they meet strict safety and nutrition standards.

If you ever have questions about feeding your baby, our team at The Children’s Clinic is here to help.

⏰ Daylight Saving Time is coming!

That one-hour time change can throw off your child’s sleep schedule more than you might expect. Kids thrive on routine, so even a small shift in bedtime can lead to cranky mornings and restless nights.

Here are a few pediatrician-approved tips to help your child adjust more easily:

✔ Gradually shift bedtimes by about 15 minutes each night before the time change
✔ Limit screens and bright lights at least an hour before bed
✔ Stick to a calming nighttime routine like baths, books, or quiet music
✔ Encourage plenty of outdoor play and exercise during the day

With a little preparation, the transition can be much smoother for the whole family.

If you have questions about your child’s sleep habits or routines, our team at The Children’s Clinic is always here to help.

🧰 Build a “Calm Toolbox” for Stressful Moments

Life can feel overwhelming — for kids and parents.

When big emotions hit, it’s easy to hand over a screen. But there are healthier ways to calm the nervous system and reset.

Try adding these to your family’s “calm toolbox”:
✔️ Reading a book
✔️ Listening to calming music
✔️ Doing a puzzle
✔️ Coloring or journaling
✔️ Playing a board game together

These simple activities help slow breathing, steady heart rate, and refocus the brain.

If your child is struggling with stress, anxiety, or emotional regulation, our team at The Children’s Clinic in Jackson, TN is here to help.

STOP ✋ WAIT ⏸ GO ▶️ — A Simple Guide to Kids’ Screen Content

There is so much content available for kids today — but not all of it is good for growing minds.

Here’s a quick guide for parents in Jackson, TN:

🛑 STOP – Avoid violent, aggressive, AI-generated, or clickbait-style content.

⏸ WAIT – Limit fast-paced shows, product-heavy videos, and apps with ads or in-app purchases.

▶️ GO – Choose high-quality programs like Sesame Street, Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood, Bluey, Blue’s Clues, and Ms. Rachel.

Quality matters — especially for young children whose brains are still developing.

It’s Not Too Late to Protect Your Child from the Flu, Jackson! 💉

Flu season isn’t over — and kids under age 5 (especially under 2) are at the highest risk for serious flu complications.

Flu can lead to:
• Pneumonia
• Hospital stays
• Worsening asthma
• Severe dehydration

The best protection? A yearly flu shot.

Even healthy kids can get very sick from influenza. If your child hasn’t received their flu vaccine yet, there’s still time.
