I'm a bit worried about my 3-month-old baby. I've been feeding them both formula milk, specifically Lactogen, and breast milk since they were 2 months old. Everything seemed fine, but lately, I've noticed they've started having greenish stools for about a week now. I'm thinking about switching from Lactogen to Nan Pro. Is it safe to make this change? And why might their stools be green?

Marijuana does not directly affect HIV test results. HIV tests detect antibodies or antigens related to the virus, not substances like marijuana.
However, if you're concerned about your HIV test result or CBC variations, consider the following:
- Window period: HIV tests may not detect the virus if taken too early after exposure. The window period varies depending on the test type.
- Test sensitivity: No test is 100% accurate. False negatives can occur.
- CBC variations: Changes in your CBC results might be unrelated to HIV or marijuana use.
To alleviate your concerns:
- Retest: Consider retesting for HIV after the recommended window period.
- Consult a healthcare professional: Discuss your test results, marijuana use, and any concerns with a doctor or counselor.

View allCan kids eat apples when they have a cold and cough? I'm really curious about which fruits are safe and beneficial for them right now. Could you also suggest the best diet or foods to include during a cold and cough for kids? I just want to make sure I'm doing the best for their health.
Yes, kids can eat apples during a cold and cough as they are easy to digest and contain vitamin C, which can help boost immunity. For a soothing diet, offer soft fruits like bananas, oranges, and pears, along with warm soups, broths, and plenty of fluids like water and herbal teas to stay hydrated and relieve congestion.

I'm really worried about my kids. They don't seem to have much of an appetite, they're really thin, and I'm noticing that their IQ seems a bit on the low side. Plus, they're having trouble sleeping. Could vitamins help with these issues?
