My baby took two MCV (meningococcal) Vaccines with gap 2 months 10 days (Age - 10 months and 12 months). Later I heard the gap should be 3 months. I am a bit worried if the vaccine will not work for my baby or if there is any side effects. Please suggest.
I have a younger brother 12 years old and is in 7th standard. Since my mother passed away suddenly due to brain haemmorage and especially since I got her admitted in ICU around 56 days ago, his routine and behavior changed significantly. He used to go to school with my mother and return with her. Since my mother’s illness/death, he has stopped going to school regularly and has now missed around a month or more. His phone usage increased heavily after my mother went to the ICU because he was staying with my aunt and mostly remained on the phone. Mom used to feed him but now he hasn't had a proper meal since 56 days (3 breads in the morning, egg roll in the afternoon and 2 3 spoons of rice at night which he doesn't like. He now spends a lot of time on the phone and avoids normal routine. Relatives tell me to get him out of it and I feel constantly worried about him even while at work because my mind stays focused on how to get him out of this. My dad has given his responsibility on me
In the place of bcg vaccine after 8 months I see it's swelling and reddish in colour. Little scared of what is happening. Is it normal?
My baby has suddenly started passing stool 6–7+ times a day and its been more than 2 weeks. Stool test shows pH 6 (acidic) and reducing substances - present. He is 4.5 month old and on exclusively breastfed. Doctor has suggested introducing formula milk, but I’m considering taking a second opinion first.
