Well Child Visits- What to Expect

Well baby visits are a part of a country’s preventive health plan. In Malawi, babies get a full check-up at birth, when Mom sees her OB usually a week after delivery, and between 4-6 weeks of age. Then the babies get weighed with each scheduled immunization visit. If any concerns they can schedule an appointment to see a provider. I recommend that babies following this basic plan and also schedule a developmental check and physical exam at 9 months and between 2 to 2.5 years.
