Excerpt from Healthy Babies: A Volume Devoted to the Health of the Expectant Mother and the Care and Welfare of the Child The methods and advice given in this book on care of babies are, first of all, intended to be used in keeping babies well. The book is in no sense intended as a method of treating sick babies, nor should the advice that is given ever take the place of the individual care that can be offered by a doctor. The methods of keeping babies well are simple and easy, but the methods of curing babies after they are sick are difficult and often complicated. It has been proved over and over again that babies can be kept well with very little effort, and that any intelligent mother can learn all that is needful to assure good health in her baby. There are certain minor forms of illness which can be corrected or cured simply by readjustment of the hygiene of the baby's life or perhaps by the use of some simple household remedies, and there is no reason why the mother should not know and apply the proper treatment in cases of this kind, but if actual illness occurs there should be no delay in obtaining the help of a qualified physician. Saving babies has proved to be one of the most interesting and satisfactory types of health work that has ever been carried out in this, or any other country.
