I took Julia out for walks right away, but she was born in July, I didn't take her to stores or anything like that till she was 2 months.

My ped said 6 week although he prefers 8. I took DD to the diner when she was 4 weeks and a short trip to the mall.

Re: how old to take out your baby?

we went outside right away. DS was born at teh end of July so it was mostly in the AM or evening that we went out. As it got cooler, we went to the beach every day, starting at 2 weeks. we stayed in the shade, but enjoyed the fresh air. As far as stores, i think i hd to get some food when he was bout a week old so ran into a small market other than that he was probably 3 weeks or so.

Re: how old to take out your baby?

Both girls were out within days of coming home from the hospital to stores and for walks. I waited prob 2 weeks to take them to the mall, restaurants and peoples homes-only because I wasn't up to it physically yet to be out for long periods of time.
I had a May and July baby.
My PED actually encourages mommies to take their babies out to get air and some sanity for the mommy and daddy as soon as possible, but he just said not to let strangers touch :)

I had a January baby and we were out doing stuff at about 2 weeks. We started classes and babygroups at about 4 weeks. I couldn't stay at home for the time your doctors are suggesting...no way.
