My baby girl will be 3 month old on 25th September and she sleeps straight 6 hours in the night. Should I wake her up and feed in between? Her weight gain is so far good(1kg per month) but from last couple of weeks she is sleeping 6 hours straight at night so i am concerned . Please advice.
Hi My daughter is 3.5 months old. She is on mixed feeding. Her birth weight was 2.9kg Current weight is 6 kg Today she is not taking feed neither breastmilk nor formula but she is active. What could be the reason?
My baby boy is 22 days old, born by C-section at 38+6 weeks, weighing 2.8 kg at birth. He is feeding well, has 10+ wet diapers daily and is otherwise healthy. Our pediatrician prescribed B-N-C Neo Drops, 0.5 mL twice daily. The product contains DHA, multiple vitamins/minerals and 400 IU vitamin D per 1 mL. I would like a second opinion from pediatricians: Is this multivitamin/multimineral supplement routinely necessary for a healthy, term newborn who is feeding and growing well? Would vitamin D supplementation alone generally be sufficient? Is there any concern with giving B-N-C Neo at this dose?
My 6 month old has a fever, likely due to the seasonal change (one of the family members, 58F also has a fever at this time). I’m wondering if the correct dosage of paracetamol drops can be given. I have 100mg strength with 15ml. He weighs 6.5kg and his temperature is around 101 F.
