Newborns Who May Need Neonatal Care

Some babies may need special medical care soon after birth to stay healthy and safe. Neonatal care may be required for newborns who are:

  • Born too early (premature babies)
  • Born with low birth weight
  • Having breathing problems
  • Affected by infections
  • Born with complications during delivery
  • Facing feeding difficulties
  • Needing close observation after a difficult birth

Early neonatal care helps prevent complications, supports proper growth, and ensures healthy development for newborns.

Advanced Nutrition and Intravenous Support for Newborns

Some newborn babies, especially those born early, may not be able to feed normally at first. In such situations, we provide special nutritional support to help them grow and recover safely.

  • Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN): Special nutrients given through a vein when a baby cannot take milk or regular feeds.
  • Intravenous (IV) Fluids: Carefully monitored fluids to keep the baby hydrated and maintain the right balance of salts and minerals until normal feeding is possible.

These supports ensure that newborns receive the nutrition they need during the early stages of recovery.

Follow-Up Care and Developmental Monitoring

After a baby is discharged from the NICU, regular follow-up care is important to support healthy growth and development. Our neonatology team provides ongoing care to monitor your baby's progress closely.

  • Developmental assessments to check brain growth and movement skills
  • Hearing tests to ensure normal hearing development
  • Eye (ROP) and vision checks to support healthy eyesight
  • Regular growth monitoring of weight, height and head size

These follow-up visits help ensure your baby continues to grow, develop well and receive care at the right time.
