This session explains the 6 to 8 week 'baby check' review and describes some of the common or important abnormalities found in young infants.

This session was reviewed by Khyati Bakhai and last updated in October 2021.

Learning objectives

By the end of this session you will be able to:

  • describe the purpose of the 6 to 8 week baby check
  • establish a routine for undertaking a 6 to 8 week baby check
  • describe an approach for tackling some of the common problems that can occur during the 6 to 8 week baby check
  • describe common or serious abnormalities found in infants

A newborn infant should undergo its first complete physical examination within 24 hours of birth. This is normally carried out by a trained midwife or paediatrician. A blood spot screening test should be performed by the midwife at around 5 to 8 days, and a hearing screening test should also be carried out within the first week.
