Yes! It is generally safe to take a full-term, healthy newborn baby on public outings, including restaurants and cafes. It’s not just about baby; make sure you are emotionally and physically ready for the logistics, like safely navigating their car seat and feeding and diapering on the go. It’s also okay if you feel content hunkering down at home, as babies do not need to be “socialized.” If your baby has a medical condition or was born premature, check with your doctor about public outings. Some situations warrant an individualized risk assessment related to germ exposure.
