A healthy newborn typically shows several signs of well-being. Look for things like good skin tone, which should be pinkish, and a strong cry, indicating a healthy respiratory system. Newborns also tend to have alertness and responsiveness to stimuli. They should feed well, whether breastfed or formula-fed, and have regular wet and dirty diapers. Additionally, they should have a good latch if breastfeeding. Monitoring these signs helps ensure your baby is thriving, and if you have any concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to your GP or health visitor for guidance.
