Mouth smell
Dear Sir/Madam, My son, 11 months old is having bad mouth smell, started since 4 -5 days. We changed milk powder from nan pro 2 to nusobee caesin due to loose motions. He is also having cold, we are using syrup for the same. Please advise whether this smell is due to milk powder or cold or heat etc and remedy as well. Thanks in advance.

Milk powder is difficult to digest and can be the cause of bad smell. Decrease formula milk now. Please avoid packaged food also like cerelac. They are not as beneficial as home cooked fresh food. Give khichdi, mashed potato, sheera, upma, idli, fruits, mix green vegetables in dal rice.  Type baby food recipes 11 months india in google and you will get many options. Websites like Tarla dalal give many recipes.
