Enthusiasm to enjoy and celebrate your toddler's many accomplishments during this year. Regular Health Checkups Are Important Toddlers grow fast. As they grow, they need regular health checkups. Your child's health examination will give the doctor an opportunity to spot problems early. This way problems can be taken care of before any serious or long term effects occur.
Health records are vital.
The record from the health checkups provides information about your child's health and immunization. You will need this record when you enroll your child in day care, nursery school, or kindergarten. If your child needs special food or medication while away from home, the health record gives caregivers the correct medical information. Be sure you keep your health record in a safe place where you can find it easily. Of course, if parents or doctors have special concerns about the child, examinations will be more frequent.
