Keeping Kids Healthy: Basic Training for New Dads

Congratulations! You're a new dad! After the toasts, the cigars and all the pats on the back, what happens next? You have this new life in your arms...do you know what to do? How do you hold the baby? Are you afraid you'll drop and "break” her? When does your baby need to be fed...and how? How will your life change? Join Dr. Winnie King as we learn about a "Boot Camp” that puts new fathers through basic training. We'll talk with boot camp "Drool Sergeants;” and we'll give new dads some of the tools they need to be great fathers!
