At which month do you all start bringing your lo out? I want to bring my 2-month lo out as I'm very bored at home but my husband and parents all felt that she is too young to be out. They told me babies can only be exposed to the outside environment after they are 6 months old when their immunity is stronger.

There is really no specific guideline on when you can bring your newborn out. Most propose that once your baby is out of the hospital, it is fine to bring him/her out if you feel up to it. The only thing to note would be to avoid large, crowded, enclosed places with poor ventilation. For such places, it will be good to wait till your baby is six to eight weeks, when her immune system is better developed. These places increase her exposure to airborne germs that could be dangerous for her immature immune system. Bringing her out for walks in the parks will be great. Also, do take note of the air condition now since the haze is back. Just a short walk in a nearby park would do both you and baby good (if the air condition is alright that is). Take care!
