My baby is not drinking enough milk or eating solids since few days. What can be done to increase his appetite?
Male | 6 months
It is typical for infant feeding patterns to fluctuate. However sustained low intake demands vigilance. Teething discomfort might reduce appetite. Try frequent smaller meals and different foods. Sufficient rest also aids appetite. If low intake persists, consult your pediatrician. Babies sometimes struggle with milk or solids due to temporary issues. Yet steady poor intake indicates potential concerns requiring medical evaluation.

So I have a 4 month old baby so he has bleeding the brain would it be possible that when my 3 daughters where jumping on my bed and my 4 month old baby got his head stuck between the wall and bed when they started bouncing that the bed and the wall would make his brain start bleeding ??
Male | 4 months
It is unlikely that the bed and wall incident alone caused your baby's brain to bleed, but it is important to seek medical advice immediately. Brain bleeding in infants can have serious causes. Please consult a pediatric neurologist to understand the situation and get proper care for your baby.

Body Weakness fro my child
Female | 11
Kids may feel weak sometimes. Not getting proper nutrition from healthy food choices is one cause. Inadequate sleep or high-stress levels also contribute to weakness. Ensuring they follow a balanced diet, get sufficient rest, and manage stress helps increase energy levels. However, if weakness persists despite these measures, seeking medical advice from a pediatrician becomes necessary to identify and address any underlying issues.

Hi there, I just have a quick question that my 13 year old daughter asked me and I wasn’t sure what the answer was
Female | 13
Hiccups happen when the diaphragm muscle below the lungs contracts suddenly. Eating rapidly, carbonated beverages or excitement may trigger hiccups. Typically, hiccups stop by themselves but try deep breathing or sipping water if persistent. Hiccups are little noises our bodies make, sometimes cute. They usually resolve on their own, but lasting ones need attention. Deep breaths help relax the diaphragm, while water soothes throat spasms causing hiccups.

Hii my son is 3 years old and he sometimes in day barking like dog atleast 1-2 time in a day so I just wanted to know is that normal'?
Male | 3
Children don't usually bark like dogs. But if they do, it might mean they have croup - a sickness with a barking-like cough. They could also have a runny nose or hoarse voice. When the airways swell, this happens. Giving warm drinks and using a cool mist humidifier helps. But talk to your kid's doctor if it keeps going.

My six month baby is crying all night and she is not pooping please help me out
Female | 31
Babies cry, yet your little one's night-long weeping seems extra troubling. At six months old, no pooping plus fussiness likely signals constipation. Not enough liquids or certain foods might cause this backup. Offering extra water or tenderly rubbing that tiny tummy could provide relief. However, if distress persists, consult a pediatrician.

Your baby's health situation seems concerning. The echo test finding a hole, an ASD, is worrisome. This hole doesn't always close naturally as babies grow up.

If you're concerned about your 1.5 year old son's genital development, it's essential to consult a pediatrician or pediatric urologist for an evaluation. Small or retracting testicles may be normal in some cases, but it's crucial to rule out conditions like undescended testicles or hernias.
