When to Call 

Knowing when to call relies on having information and trusting your gut. Here are a few tips to help you know when you need to call: 

​

* Know the danger signs: See the information below

* Know who to call: Write the name and number of your midwife or doctor and you baby's pediatrician and put on your fridge and in your phone. 

* Know what to do in an emergency:

1. Call 911 

2. State your address (write it down and put on fridge for caregivers to see) 

3. Stay calm, the firefighters are on their way while you are talking to the operator.
