When there is a newborn there are many rituals to be done.
1-First the father or one of the relatives has to say the call of prayer in the baby's right ear ,so Allah's name will be the first thing the baby hears.
2-Then the baby has to be named,and the prophet (peace be upon him)asked us to give the children good names.
3-Then a lamb is slaughtered,and the baby's hair is shaved and the price of it's weight in silver is given to the poor.
4-If it's a baby boy ,he is circumcised on the third or on the seventh day.
5-Of course there are different things people do to celebrate the arrival of newborns in the different regions of KSA.In the hijaz area they have a party on the seventh day and give candy and little gifts to the children attending this party,the baby is carried on a decorated pillow,and the baby is dressed witha niced white outfit,the children sing special songs greeting the newborn.

"Let the women live in ('iddat*)
In the same style as you live,
According to your means:
Annoy them not,so as
To restrict them.
And if they are pregnant,
Then spend(your substance)on them
Until they deliver their burden,
And if they suckle your (offspring),
Give them their recompense:
And take mutual counsel
Together,according to
What is just and reasonable.
And if you find yourselves
In difficulties,let another
Woman suckle(the child)
On the father's behalf."
