Here's the honest answer, and it might surprise you: the AAP no longer gives a specific number of hours.

Why? Because 30 minutes of FaceTime with a friend feels completely different than 30 minutes of doom-scrolling. Same screen, completely different impact.

The AAP's new digital media framework shifts the focus from screen time limits to a child's overall well-being, using something called the 5 Cs: Child, Content, Calm, Crowding Out, and Communication.

Here is what to actually watch for this summer:
πŸ”΄ Screen use is crowding out sleep, exercise, meals, or in-person connection? That's the real signal.
πŸ”΄ Your teen can't step away from their phone without meltdown or anxiety? Time to talk.
πŸ”΄ They seem more irritable, withdrawn, or negative about their body after social media use? That matters.
🟒 Green flags: They laugh, they connect, they share things with you, they still want to do things offline.

The goal is not to ban the phone. The goal is to raise a kid who has a healthy relationship with technology. That starts with conversations, not confiscation.

And if you're seeing signs that worry you? That is exactly what our well visits are for. We see patients all the way through college. So yes, that 16-year-old counts too.

We're accepting new patients. Bring the whole crew.

Summer feels like a relief. No schedules, no homework, no alarm clocks. But for a lot of kids, the loss of routine is actually destabilizing.
Structure at school provides predictability. It gives kids a sense of mastery and social connection. When that disappears overnight, some kids feel it hard.

The AAP estimates that 1 in 5 children, including kids as young as 2, have mental, emotional, or behavioral difficulties at any given time. And there's typically a 2 to 4 year window between a child's first symptoms and when a full disorder develops.

Summer is a prime time for those early signs to surface, because the scaffolding of the school day is gone.

Watch for: more irritability than usual, withdrawal from friends, sleep shifts, physical complaints like stomachaches, or a mood that just seems "off."

You know your kid. Trust that.

If something feels off, let's talk. We screen for mental health at every well visit.

We're seeing a lot of colds, but also some croup from a virus called Parainfluenza.

Croup is a viral infection that causes swelling in the voice box and windpipe. It mostly hits kids between 3 months and 5 years old, and it tends to be WORST at night. Fun times.

Here's what you can do at home:
- Cool night air or a cool mist humidifier can ease that bark
- Keep them calm. Crying and anxiety make the breathing harder.
- Honey (for age 1 and up) and warm clear fluids can soothe the throat
- If we prescribe a steroid, give it. It works quickly to reduce swelling.

Head straight to the emergency room if your child:
- Has noisy breathing even when they're resting and calm
- Has blue or gray lips or fingernails
- Is drooling or struggling to swallow
- Looks exhausted, pale, or is working really hard to breathe

When in doubt, call us. That's literally what we're here for.
We've got you.

In 2022, the American Academy of Pediatrics updated its breastfeeding guidelines for the first time in a decade. And the change was significant.

The previous guidelines recommended breastfeeding "as long as mutually desired" up to one year. The updated guidelines extended that to two years and beyond, with the emphasis on continued breastfeeding alongside solid foods starting at six months.

But here's what gets missed in the headlines: this update was driven by more robust research showing that long-term breastfeeding carries real health benefits. The guidelines also expanded the lens to include maternal health, not just infant nutrition. The breastfeeding family is now viewed as a whole.

That means we're not just talking about what's in the milk. We're talking about the mom's long-term health too.

At One Family Pediatrics, we're here to support your feeding journey at every stage, whether that's day three or month eighteen.

Questions about your feeding journey? We'd love to help.

It's giving summer β˜€οΈ and your little ones need to stay hydrated! But how much water is actually enough? It depends on their age, and we've got you covered.

From newborns who get everything they need from breastmilk or formula, to toddlers who need gentle reminders to sip throughout the day, hydration looks a little different at every stage.

A few things to watch for:
fewer wet diapers, bright yellow urine, or a cranky kiddo who "isn't thirsty" (we see you, preschoolers) can all be early signs of dehydration.

NATIONAL HAMBURGER DAY

Today’s burger deals are honestly wild. Some are giving out heavily discounted burgers, some give a free burger with purchase!

Most deals are app-only because apparently downloading 14 restaurant apps is now part of adulthood.

What are you having for dinner?

"Isn't that too many shots at once?" We hear this every week, and it is a fair question. πŸ’›

Here is the reassuring truth: a baby's immune system handles hundreds to thousands of germs a day just by existing. Vaccines do not overwhelm that system, they give it helpful practice.

A single cold exposes a child to roughly 10 germ pieces (antigens) and strep throat to around 25 to 50, which really puts one visit in perspective.

The schedule is carefully timed to protect your child when they are most at risk. Questions about the schedule? Let's talk it through, no rush.

The "pump and dump" rule is one of the most stubborn breastfeeding myths out there. Dumping your milk after a drink does not clear the alcohol any faster. Your milk levels rise and fall right alongside your blood alcohol, so time is the only thing that lowers them.

Tip: enjoy your drink right after a feed, and waiting about 2 hours is the typical guidance.

Got feeding questions?
Bring them to us. No judgment, lots of support.

Memorial Day is not the same as Veterans Day. Veterans Day honors everyone who served. Memorial Day specifically honors those who died in service.

For little kids, keep it simple:
'Today we remember the people in the military who did not come home.'

For older kids, you can add:
'Some families in our community lost someone they loved. Today is for them too.'

The National Moment of Remembrance is at 3 PM local time. One minute of silence. It is a small but powerful thing to do together as a family.

You can still have the cookout. Just pause first.

From all of us at One Family Pediatrics, thank you to the families who carry this day.
