Baby's sick...now what?

Zaigham Tahir, DO, Pediatrician Aug 12, 2021

Baby's first cough, fever and sniffles can cause a lot of anxiety. What's really going on when baby doesn't feel well, what's the best way to treat common colds and viruses, and how do you know when it's time to call the doctor? In this episode, Zaigham Tahir, DO, a pediatrician from Children's Wisconsin Urgent Care, offers tons of reassurance and some great advice to help parents figure out which symptoms are normal — and when it's time to take baby in to be seen.

The Healthy Baby, Happy Parent podcast from Children's Wisconsin is available to listen to below and wherever you get your podcasts.
