A sad day for us...this will be the last post on our Northside Pediatrics page. After multiple viral spiteful comments on this page, regarding mainly immunization posts, we have made the difficult decision to no longer post on Facebook. Sadly, almost all of the comments are from people not even remotely associated with our practice (if even they are people...). We truly have enjoyed over a decade of communicating with you and your families via our page, but unfortunately due to new algorithms, most of our posts are rarely even reaching you as much as they have in previous years. Also, many newer families no longer use Facebook and are on Instagram and other social media platforms, so we hope this will not affect many of you. We *will* keep our Instagram page up and running at , so if you aren't already a follower, please join us there. Luckily, the trolls have so far left Ig alone. We will continue to post links to great articles, stories and office information there. We will see you down the road on Instagram!

Thnx to Dr Casinelli the awesome pediatric dentist below us in the SS office for this super infographic on how much toothpaste by age. Twice a week make it a flouride based one once your kids have teeth.

A common trope of the anti science crowd is that "God made babies with low Vitamin K so it must be that way for a reason". Here is an excellent explanation for why this doesn't stand up for a small percentage of infants. Not worth the risk of not receiving and totally a safe (and important ) vitamin to get as a newborn.
