📅 Back to Routine After Winter Break! 💙

Winter holidays are full of fun, but the shift in schedules can make it tough for kids (and parents!) to get back into regular routines. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, consistent family routines help children feel secure, behave better, and sleep well — especially after a break.

Here are a few gentle ways to restore rhythms at home:

🔹 Set regular bed and wake-up times — even if it takes a few days to adjust.
🔹 Plan meals & snacks at predictable times — helps balance energy and behavior.
🔹 Keep consistent homework/playtime routines — structure supports focus and calm.
🔹 Include simple family traditions — a bedtime read, after-school check-in, or weekend walk.

Routines aren’t rigid rules — they’re predictable rhythms that help children feel safe, confident, and ready to take on each day.

Need support getting back on track? We’re here to help — from sleep guidance to school readiness and more. 💛

🎉 New Year, Healthy Goals! 🎉

The start of a new year is a wonderful opportunity to talk with your children about setting healthy, achievable goals together. Making resolutions or goals can be fun and positive when we keep them simple, realistic, and age-appropriate — and involve kids in choosing their own goals.

Here are some great ideas to help kids (and the whole family!) get started:
💧 Drink more water and enjoy nutrient-rich foods.

📚 Read a bit more each day or choose a book together.

🚴 Stay active with games, walks, or movement your child enjoys.

💛 Practice kindness — a daily compliment or helping at home.

✨ Try one new healthy habit at a time and celebrate small wins!

💡 Remember — goals should be fun, not stressful, and focused on positive growth and confidence. Chat with your child about what matters to them, and pick a few goals you can support together.

Wishing all our families a healthy and hope-filled year ahead! 💙

🤢 Norovirus Is On the Rise in NoVA — Here’s What Parents Should Know

Norovirus spreads easily, especially this time of year, and can affect children of all ages. It’s a common cause of stomach flu and can spread quickly in homes, schools, and childcare settings.

📍 Common Symptoms:
• Sudden nausea
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Stomach cramps
• Sometimes low-grade fever or body aches

Symptoms usually begin 12–48 hours after exposure and can last 1–3 days.

🦠 How It Spreads:
Norovirus is highly contagious — it can spread when someone with the virus:
• Touches surfaces or objects that others then touch
• Shares food or utensils
• Doesn’t wash hands thoroughly after using the bathroom or vomiting

💧 Prevention & Care Tips:
✔ Wash hands with soap and water frequently (especially after bathroom use and before eating)
✔ Clean high-touch surfaces often with disinfectant
✔ Keep sick children home from school/daycare
✔ Encourage fluids to prevent dehydration — small, frequent sips of water, oral rehydration solutions, or diluted electrolyte drinks are best

⚠ Signs of Dehydration:
Contact us if your child shows:
• Very dry mouth or no tears when crying
• Fewer wet diapers or very dark urine
• Dizziness or extreme fatigue

If your child shows dehydration symptoms or you have questions, please call Advanced Pediatrics at 📞 703-938-5555 — we’re here to support you.

Stay safe, stay hydrated, and thank you for partnering with us! 💙

🦠 Measles: What Parents Should Know 🧒🩺
Measles is a highly contagious viral illness, especially dangerous for young children and unvaccinated individuals. It spreads when an infected person coughs, sneezes, talks or breathes — and the virus can stay in the air up to 2 hours after they’ve left the room.

📍 Common symptoms:
• High fever
• Cough
• Runny nose
• Red, watery eyes
• Rash that starts on the face then spreads downward
• Tiny white spots inside the mouth (Koplik spots)

Symptoms usually begin 7–14 days after exposure. Because measles is so contagious, one infected person can spread it to up to 9 out of 10 unprotected people nearby.

🧠 How to prevent measles:
✔ The best protection is the MMR vaccine — it’s safe and highly effective when given on schedule.

✔ Keep up with routine immunizations and check records with your pediatrician.

📍 Outbreaks in the U.S.:
Measles cases and outbreaks are occurring across many states this year (South Carolina, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona & Utah) — including areas with lower vaccination rates — and health officials continue to monitor spread.

If you’re worried your child may have been exposed or is showing symptoms, please contact Advanced Pediatrics at 📞 703-938-5555 — we’re here to help guide next steps. 💙
