The typical well-baby visit will provide information about normal
development, diet, general care, immunizations, the latest
infectious diseases that are "going around," and other important
advice and information for parents. Special attention is paid to
whether the infant has met the normal developmental milestones. The
height, weight and head circumference is recorded on a graph, which
the physician keeps with the infant's chart.
