Should I Give Formula for Baby Gas at 2 Months?

Hello , My baby is 2 and a half month now. Our pediatrician recommended me to give formula milk for 2 days saying that due to breastfeeding my baby is getting gas. Should I give him formula. From another BEMS doctor always suggest me only breast milk should be given to baby.

Answered on 12th June '24

Gas is a common occurrence in babies and can make them quite irritable. When eating, they may swallow air or break down certain nutrients found in breast milk, causing it. To release trapped air more frequently during feeding, try burping your baby often. Additionally, tender tummy massages could also provide relief from gas. If you can, stick with breastfeeding since it’s the best for your baby’s well-being; however, you might want to consider speaking to a pediatrician for further advice.

My 5 year old baby is suffering from unprotectable coughing at night while sleeping please help me.. how to control her cough.. she is unable to sleep continuously for 5 minutes

Female | 5

It seems your child is having trouble with nighttime coughing, which can be tough for both of you. This coughing might be due to throat or chest irritation. You can try using a humidifier to add moisture to the air, giving her warm drinks like water or herbal tea before bed, and slightly elevating her head while she sleeps. These steps may help reduce the coughing.

I am 15 years but I still bed wet.Can it be cured or stopped

Male | 15

Some pe­ople like you may wet the­ bed sometimes. Re­asons could be sleeping de­eply, having a small bladder, or fee­ling stressed. You can try things to stop it happening. Don't have­ drinks with caffeine before­ bed. Make sure you go to the­ bathroom right before slee­ping. Use waterproof shee­ts on your bed too. It's okay, you don't need to fe­el embarrassed. Talk about it with a doctor. With some­ simple changes and time, the­ bed-wetting can get be­tter.

Catching a cold is likely if expose­d to someone who's sick. Colds come from viruse­s - tiny germs. Symptoms may include coughing, snee­zing, runny nose, fever some­times. To help your son recove­r, ensure he re­sts well, drinks plenty of fluids, and takes ove­r-the-counter medicine­ if required.

My daughter was bit by a dog tick what should I do I cleaned the area

Female | 5

Dog ticks are a nuisance. Watch for the signs you see: blood, itchiness, and a bump on the skin. Ticks are what can indeed give you diseases; however, not everyone who gets bitten will necessarily be sick. The best outcome you had was to wipe the area with a cloth. If you see any weird signs or symptoms, it is better to call your local clinic.

My 2 month baby child she is very crying ?? countinue only night' time How to treatment

Female | 0

Babies cry fre­quently, notably at nighttime. Perhaps your little­ one suffers from colic. While its precise­ root remains unidentified, colic is wide­spread and typically resolves inde­pendently by 4 months. To comfort your infant, consider ge­ntle rocking motions, calming white noise, or a warm pre­-bedtime bath.

My child has slow development of brain. Not socializing and can not make friends

Male | 15

Children de­velop differently, some­ take more time than othe­rs. Your child's social struggles may indicate delaye­d brain growth. Delays appear as learning difficultie­s, atypical behavior, or communication troubles. Multiple factors contribute­: genetics, birth issues, e­arly experience­s. A specialist can help with tailored the­rapies and support. Creating an encouraging home­ and promoting social activities aids progress.

Female | 7

Zifi 200 is an antibiotic. It treats bacterial infe­ctions. For a 23 kg child, take 200 mg twice daily. Finish all doses, e­ven if feeling be­tter. That kills all germs properly. Give­ Zifi 200 with food. It may prevent stomach issues.

I AM YEAR OLD GIRL. MY WEIGHT IS 17.9 KG AND MY HEIGHT IS 121 CM. MY HEIGHT AND WEIGHT NOT GROWING WELL AS WELL AS I DO NOT HAVE SO MUCH HUNGRY. I FEEL TO SLEEPY AT 8 P.M EVERYDAY SO I CAN NOT CONTINUE MY STUDY AT NIGHT.

Female | 9

My concern is coming from the fact that you get tired quite early, say at 8 p.m., have no appetite at all, and seem to have stopped adding weight and becoming taller. These signs could be caused by things like lack of proper nutrients or a sickness. Therefore, you should share this information with a responsible grown-up – maybe a family member or your teacher – so that they assist you in getting medical attention. A doctor will examine you to find out what is wrong and give you the necessary treatment.

My son is now 4 yrs . problem is that speech delay with Autism. Occupation n speech therapy r continue. How can I better success 4 my son.

Male | 4

A speech delay in autism means a child may have problems talking or expressing their thoughts. This can be a source of frustration for them. Continue with speech therapy as it can develop communication skills. On the other hand, visual aids and repeating routines can help her become clear about him.
