I'm concerned about my 4-month-old baby boy who's currently 8.2 kgs and is breastfed. Is his weight within a healthy range for his age? Could you give me some tips on how to make sure he maintains a good weight?

In conclusion, your babys weight seems fine, and as long as you continue exclusive breastfeeding and follow your pediatrician's advice, your baby will likely continue to grow healthy and strong. Always consult your pediatrician during check-ups for personalized advice.

View allMy baby's lips have started turning a blackish color over the last couple of days. She's eating normally, and everything seems fine in that department. However, she's passing liquid stool, and I'm concerned it might be related to the heat here. Could you provide some guidance on what might be happening?
It's good to hear that your baby is feeding well. Blackish lips can sometimes be due to dehydration or a lack of oxygen, but its important to monitor if this persists. The liquid stools could indeed be due to the heat; keep her well-hydrated, and if the symptoms continue or worsen, Id recommend a pediatricians consultation for a thorough checkup.

I'm really worried because I accidentally got a drop of nasal saline into my 5-month-old baby's eye. Could this affect their eyesight? I'm feeling really anxious about it, and I'd love some guidance.
Mistakenly nasal saline drops getting into your 5-month-old baby's eye can cause some irritation, but it is unlikely to cause any long-term problems with eyesight. To help alleviate any discomfort and prevent infection, you can gently flush the eye with clean water. If the irritation persists or if you notice any redness, swelling, or discharge from the eye, please consult with your pediatrician.

My 16-month-old has had a cough for a week now and the pediatrician prescribed Protussa, but it hasn't helped much. She's been vomiting right after she coughs, especially after eating. What should I do next?
Pediatric opinion is advised to the patient.
