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.

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.
Male | 2.5 months
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.

I 27 month old daughters urine has been smelling very strong lately. It has an overpowering smell of bamboo shoots.
Female | 27 months
Kids may sometimes have stinky pee. Some foods and drinks like asparagus make that happen. But if it constantly smells strong like bamboo shoots, it might mean your child has a urinary infection. Look for other signs like fever or pain peeing. Be sure your daughter stays hydrated by drinking plenty of water. And if that funky smell keeps lingering for days, then it's wise to get her checked out by a urologist.

My daughter turned 8y a day back. She was a low birth weight kid. Currently she is 16kg, 110.4cm. No endocrine or any health issues. Very active n fine. Pls suggest some supplement to increase height and weight.
Female | 8
Here are some tips for helping your child grow taller and gain weight. Make sure they get different nutrients by eating many kinds of food – not just junk! Specifically, things with protein like milk or eggs; also foods high in calcium (like broccoli) and vitamin D (like salmon). Get them moving often with things other than walking too- muscle strength is important! Enough sleep each night will help their bodies grow well too.

Female | 5
Consult a child psychologist or pediatrician. Your daughter's aggressive behavior and frequent tantrums may be due to underlying emotional or behavioral issues that need professional evaluation. Early intervention can be very helpful in managing and improving these behaviors.

Female | 2
It looks like your little one may have food refusal, struggling to take anything but breast milk. This could stem from sensory sensitivity, teething pain, or pickiness. You can try offering soft, varied eats in bite-sized portions throughout the day. If the troubles persist, consult with your pediatrician for tips.

Baby seems like he has been constipated
Male | 2 month
Constipation takes place when someone struggles passing bowel movements. Babies might seem irritable, avoid pooping regularly, or produce firm stools. This occurs due to inadequate hydration, dietary fiber, or fruits and vegetables. Ensuring your child consumes sufficient fluids and fiber-rich foods can alleviate discomfort. However, if the issue persists, consulting a pediatrician is advisable.

Hi, Hi, my son received an antibiotic today, Amoxicillin 250/5ml, no dosage was given. The son is 12 years old and weighs 60 kg.
Mężczyzna | 12
At 12 years old, 60 kg, the typical dose: is 25 mg/kg daily. So, approximately 1500 mg per day for your son, divided into 12-hour intervals. However, consult your doctor for the precise dosage based on his condition. Ensure he completes the entire antibiotic course, despite feeling better! Inform your doctor if side effects occur, such as rash, diarrhea, or vomiting.

2 year baby doing vomiting in 2 days
Female | 2
This happens sometimes. Maybe a small bug crept in, or some food didn't sit right. The key is keeping baby hydrated with tiny sips of water or rehydration drinks. Stick to gentle eats like bananas and rice too. But if puking persists, or other concerning signs show up, get that checked by a pediatrician.

1 days baby in normal delivery so His baby jaundiced so NICU is mandatory
Female | 1
When newborns have jaundice after natural births, monitoring it closely matters. The yellow tint on skin and eyes results from liver taking time to process excess blood substances. NICU care may be required to check and restore normal levels. Special light treatments usually resolve this soon.

Female | 2
At two months old, babies should be fed only breastmilk or formula. Cow milk can be too much for their stomachs, resulting in problems such as stomach pains and anaemia. It is important to consult with the pediatrician before making any changes.

Kids feel lousy when sick. Your child's fever and lack of eating/drinking could mean an infection like a cold or flu. Sometimes, kids don't want food when unwell. Offer lots of liquids - water, juice mixed with water, sips often. Give small meals that digest easily. If the fever is high or your child seems ill, see a pediatrician.

New born baby 12 days old girl having constipation and vomiting after drinking breastfeeding
Female | 12 days old
A baby can sometimes have difficulty with bowel movements and regurgitating milk. Your 12-day-old girl is facing constipation and vomiting post breastfeeding. Constipation leads to strained, infrequent pooping. Vomiting is when ingested milk comes back up. Causes include air gulping while feeding, a sensitive tummy. To aid your baby, try burping more during feeds. Keep her upright after nursing sessions. Gently massage her belly too. However, persisting or worsening symptoms need a pediatrician consultation.
