"Newborns are uncooperative little patients at doctor visits when they're sick or they've just had immunizations, but a few tools will help calm your fussy baby. Keep a bottle of infant acetaminophen drops for treating fevers with a doctor's recommendation. Make sure you have a nasal aspirator for stuffy noses since newborns can't breathe easily through their mouths. And don't worry about that startled look on your baby's face when you use it -- it doesn't hurt. To help track temperatures for the doctor, have a digital baby thermometer on hand."
"Keep a bottle of infant acetaminophen drops for treating fevers" - you can pick this up at your local drug store or grocery store. Ask your doctor for dosage information.
"have a nasal aspirator for stuffy noses" - you can go with the simple, old school nose sucker, which you can pick up at your local drug store or go with something more high tech.
Electric Nasal Aspirator
"have a digital baby thermometer" - again, you can go with a simple thermometer that read under the tongue, under the arm or rectally or you can go with something more high-tech. I prefer the ear thermometers but we all know how little babies squirm!

And don't forget the comfort blanket or toy!
