Protruding forehead
Hi Doctor
My daughter was born at 34w2d with bw 1.8kgs..She is 3 months 11 days old now..her weight is 4.4kg length is 56 cm and HC is 38 cm..Is it normal? Her one side of forehead is flat and forehead is protruding..I have read in google it looks like craniosynostosis but doc did physical exam and said nothing to worry it's just a facial structure and will settle as she grows...But I am worried about her forehead...will it be in normal shape? What should I do?

Immunisation
Immunisation schedule was missed for a year. She received OPV and MMR at nine months and nothing after that.
She is two years old now, and received MMR 2, DTP/DTAP, and IPV.
Yet to take - Typhoid, Varicella, Hepatitis A, PVC booster.
Questions -
1. What are the overall risks involved with a one year delay?
2. Can the booster and follow up doses be given earlier than usual? Are there any risks involved?
3. Is there a corrective schedule available for missed immunisation cases?

Please help
My son has been having cold symptoms since two days. I gave him Maxtra to give him some comfort. I made a huge mistake by giving him the dosage for syrup in drops. I gave him 2.5ml drops instead of .7ml before going to bed yesterday night and today also. I'm so worried, I can't believe I did this to him :( He is 3.3 years & weighs 12.7 kg). Pls reply on urgent basis.. TIA...
