In honor of volume 2 dropping today, we decided to make a developmental milestones: Stranger Things edition! Remember, every child develops at their own pace!

Some kids walk at 10 months.
Some kids talk at 18 months.
Some kids gets psychic powers, fight interdimensional monsters, and save their small Indiana town multiple times before graduating high school.

All are normal!

Happy Holidays from Hawkins & Puffin Pediatrics!

Are you smarter than ACIP? Unfortunately nowadays… it’s not that hard to be.

The evidence on Hep B at birth is solid—and it’s been there all along.

The Taylor Swift developmental milestones post was such as success, we decided to make another version...And we wouldn’t be Puffin Pediatrics if it wasn’t punk rock themed! Swipe to see your kiddo’s current anthem and let us know if it resonates or not!

With the CDC’s recent change in wording about autism and vaccines, we’ve seen how quickly unclear phrasing can create confusion — even when the underlying evidence hasn’t changed at all.

So we imagined a world where a bunch of other “official” websites updated their guidance in the same confusing style… using iconic movie plots as the inspiration.

Spoiler: vague language can make even obviously terrible ideas sound like “reasonable updates.”

To be absolutely clear:
🔬 Vaccines do NOT cause autism.
That conclusion is supported by decades of high-quality, replicated research.

If you ever find health guidance that feels unclear, contradictory, or suspiciously cinematic — we’re here to help translate.

This week, instead of yelling “release the Kraken!” in honor of starting their season, we have to yell “RELEASE THE VACCINES!” at our ‘friend’ and (somehow appointed) CDC acting director, Jim O’Neill.

Puffin friends and family: it’s time to call up our representative ( for those in the Greater Seattle area) and demand that these life-saving COVID vaccines be released from the warehouses where they’re currently sitting, getting closer to their expiration dates.

And in other news……Did you know Dr. Fradkin was such a successful punk rock musician that now he’s a Pediatrician? And guess what?!? His band’s new album is out today!

While we wait for meaningful action on the leading cause of injury and death in children (fi****ms), we’ll keep doing what we do best: advocating for evidence-based child safety. At Puffin Pediatrics, we encourage families to have honest conversations about all safety topics - including firearm safety.

But yeah, thanks for the cane sugar in coke change, we guess...

Swimming Safety Guide - Part 2! asked a really good question: what are the best swim supports for kids as they are learning and playing in the water? Introducing our guide for coast guard approved life jackets vs. swim vests vs. pool floaties - because knowing the difference could save your child’s life! 🦺

Remember: the best flotation device is Coast Guard approved, fits properly, and is worn under constant adult supervision. No device replaces watchful eyes and swim lessons!
