The first 42 days: a week-by-week roadmap for parent and baby
From discharge to week six, each stage has care to continue, decisions to prepare and warning signs that must not wait for an appointment.

CBME Vietnam 2026 is a maternity-and-baby industry exhibition at SECC, not a children's play festival. Its sectors include nutrition, care products, strollers, car seats and toys. Parents appear among the intended visitor groups, but registration, admission terms and the practical value of each exhibitor should be checked in advance.

Quang Tri's proposed 12–15 November 2026 balloon festival divides activities between sites including Giai Phong Square, Hien Luong–Ben Hai and Dong Hoi.

Cai Rang is a working river market rather than a performance with a fixed showtime. Can Tho's tourism portal recommends roughly 05:00–07:00 for trading boats and breakfast on the water.
