new mom here- city moms, at what age did you take your newborn out? in nyc, everything is so close to home that i can't see the harm in taking dd (3 wks) down the street to a cafe or something, but then again, baby would be around tons of people then too. don't know if i'm being overprotective to wait until 6 wks- or is that still the norm?

We went out to lunch on the way back from our 2 week ped visit--sat at an outdoor cafe. You want to avoid crowded indoor spaces, but outdoor is fine (stay out of the sun, obviously). Have fun! [ Reply | More

i think if the baby is basically healthy (no immunity problems that you know of) you can go wherever you want. no reason to stay inside all the time. but i also understand it can feel overwhelming to get everything together to leave the house. do it anyway! you need to get out. [ Reply | More
