Baby spitting up

My son is 4-week-old (born at 34 weeks 2 days). I’m exclusively breastfeeding now after 3 weeks of Formula and Breastfeed. Hr feeds roughly every 1–2.5 hours and usually takes one breast per feed for about 20–30 minutes. He feeds actively and often falls asleep after feeding. My main concern is about spit-ups. He spits up quite frequently after feeds. The milk often looks curdled, and sometimes it happens even while I’m holding him upright (I usually keep him upright for about 15–20 minutes after feeds). He also very occasionally coughs or chokes briefly during feeds, but not very often and he recovers quickly. After feeds, he sometimes cries when I lay him down and needs a bit of calming before settling. Otherwise, he seems okay — he passes urine and stools normally and seems relaxed/sleepy after feeds. I just wanted to understand: Is this kind of spit-up pattern normal for his age (especially considering he was born a bit early)? Is there anything I should be doing  differently?

Morning Cough

My daughter is 2years and 8 months.. She's been having morning coughs(as soon as she wakes up for around 10 seconds not continuous though) since last December..it's on and off episode. Consulted her pediatrician and he's examined her and said there's mild wheezing as of now..on first examination Dr had prescribed levolin,fexagon and nasoclear saline drops..that doesn't seem to work,so now the Dr has prescribed Asthalin inhaler (2 puffs ,5-6 times a day) for 5 days.. Since then she's been having mucus(whitish/yellowish)out of her nose..she still has morning cough that has not subsided and cold too.. she's an active child,playful,no day time cough,no tiredness nothing..just worried why is her cough not subsiding.

Chickenpox

Hello Doctor, My child (6 years old) is having chickenpox. Today is the 5th day. Symptoms: - Fever, especially at night - Multiple blisters all over the body and face - Some blisters appear to have pus - Child is active at times in the morning, but becomes dull during fever - Right eyelid is reddish and slightly swollen We are currently giving Levocet syrup at night for itching. We are also giving coconut water and fruits as per the child’s preference. Kindly advise: 1. Is this a normal stage or a sign of infection? 2. Do we need any antibiotic ointment or medicine? 3. What care should we follow at this stage? I am also attaching photos for your reference. Thank you.
