I'm a bit confused and worried about my baby's vaccination schedule. My little one is 10 months old and we got the MMR vaccine done last month. Now, with the government announcing another round of MMR vaccinations, should I take her for this one too? Is it necessary or are we covered with the one we've already done?

View allI'm wondering about what's happening with my 6-month-old baby. We've been putting coconut oil in his ears every day, and now it seems like there's this wax-like substance covering them. Should we keep doing this, or is it something we should stop?
No you are harming the baby, visit ENT doctor for evaluation and appropriate management.

I'm really worried because my 2-month-old baby accidentally swallowed one of my hairs. I saw it on his tongue and tried to get it out, but then he swallowed it. Is this something I should be concerned about?
It is important to monitor for any signs of distress such as difficulty breathing, coughing, or vomiting. In most cases, the hair will pass through the digestive system without causing any issues. However, if you notice any concerning symptoms or if your baby seems to be in discomfort, you should consult a pediatrician.

Why does fever increase at night?
Normally, core body temperature is low in the morning and increases by few degree by the evening. So, a fever that was slight during the day can easliy spike by the night. Additionally, cortisol releases as a response to infection which is believed to be a protective mechanism against over activation of inflammatory system in the body. During night time, this protective mechanism is missed due to low cortisol levels and fever increases due to activation of inflammatory system.
