👶 In this special Red Nose Day Australia episode of The Baby Playbook, we’re joined by paediatric doctor Dr. Nelu Simonsz to explore what the first six months of your baby’s life look like from a medical and developmental perspective.

From essential health check-ups and vaccinations, to understanding early developmental milestones, Dr. Simonsz shares expert insights to help new parents feel informed and empowered. We also take a deep dive into safe sleep practices—what they are, why they matter, and how to follow the trusted guidelines from Red Nose Australia to reduce the risk of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome).

❤️ This episode coincides with Red Nose Day Australia, a national day of awareness and fundraising to support research and education around SIDS and safe sleeping. Learn how you can help make a difference while keeping your baby safe.

• What to expect at baby health appointments from birth to 6 months
