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.
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.
My baby is 27 days old, and he was a preemie, born at 34 weeks and 2 days.
The doctor said to use formula to help him gain weight until he hit 3kg, which he just did! So now I'm exclusively breastfeeding him. He gets hungry every 1.5 hours and feeds for about 20 to 30 minutes. He pees and poops well too.
For the last two nights, he's been crying as soon as I put him down after feeding, even though he was totally asleep while feeding.
I burp him and hold him upright for at least 10 minutes before putting him down, but it doesn't seem to help.
I'm wondering if it has something to do with my feeding – like, am I overfeeding him? And, how can I get him to calm down?
My baby turns 6 months next week and we are stuck in a cycle of contact sleeping. Until 3 months, he slept independently in his cot. Now, he only sleeps while being held or hugged.
If we transfer him to his bed, he wakes instantly or lasts 30–60 minutes max. If held, he naps for 2 hours. His max total sleep is 12–13 hours with the help of contact naps or sleeping and last week it hit 8–10 hours when we tried forcing the bed. He is a very light sleeper, and we are now unable to do anything else during the day or night.
How can we transition him back to his own surface without him losing sleep? We are exhausted and need a sustainable plan.
He didn't have any sleeping schedule currently. Till feb he had a schedule with 2-3 nights waking for feed but he used to get back to sleep. But now sometimes he gets up and stays awake for 2-3 hours.
Hi my seven months old baby boy has developed white patches around his mouth and chin which is spreading.
