Re: At what age did the pediatrician say...
I waited 3 months to go to the mall. But we were out for walks and quick store trips at a few weeks.

Re: At what age did the pediatrician say...
I went out for walks outside and quick trips to CVS at about 4 weeks I think and the doctor said out in public was okay after 8 weeks because that's when their bodies start producing antibodies and immunities of their own.

Re: At what age did the pediatrician say...
I had to get out of the house so I took DD out at 2 weeks (as soon as the doc said I could drive after my c-section). I made sure she was covered and no one touched her, but we went all over the place.

Re: At what age did the pediatrician say...
My pediatrician said that some people like to wait until the first round of shots but that I could use my discression.
We were out at around 3 weeks -- our first trip was to AC Moore to pick up some craft supplies for Mommy.
Once I had her out that time we went out a lot to many different places. We just avoided old ladies who like to touch little babies
