I'm a bit worried because my baby was born at 34 weeks and he's now 2 months and 18 days old, but he's not quite recognizing us, especially his mom. He's just started seeing some objects, but not very clearly. When can we expect him to start seeing us properly and responding with a smile?

No need to worry it takes time, usually from 3 to 4 months baby starts recognising people, have a regular followup with your doctor

I'm really concerned about my 4-year-old daughter's cough. She's been having it repeatedly for the past 45 months. Sometimes it's dry and other times it's wet. It often happens in the middle of the night or early morning. We tried homeopathy, which helped a little for a while, but it didn't fix it permanently. Is there a chance for a permanent cure, or is it something not to worry too much about?
can be cured give antibiotics

I'm really concerned about what happens if we don't use cold water pattis on the head during high fevers. Can you explain why this practice is so important? I've heard it's crucial, but I'm not sure exactly how it helps or what the risks are if we skip it. Could you help me understand this better?
