I'm a mother of a 4-month-old baby and I'm currently breastfeeding. I got the Covishield vaccine this morning and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take Dolo 650 while I'm breastfeeding. Is that something you'd recommend?

Congratulations on reaching this milestone!

At 5 months 6 days, you can introduce Cerelac as a supplementary food.

For your baby's age, suitable Cerelac options are:

Cerelac Wheat (single-grain cereal) Cerelac Rice (single-grain cereal)

Consult your pediatrician before introducing any new food.

Always follow the instructions on the packaging and prepare the cereal as recommended.

I'm really struggling with my son when it comes to studying. Every time I ask him to focus on his studies, he starts crying and becomes extremely impatient. It seems like he's not at all interested, and he lacks the patience to learn anything new. Because of this, he isn't able to do things properly and often won't even attempt them. How can I help him become more interested and patient with learning?

My kid has this cough that kicks in about 3-4 hours after she falls asleep at night. It's pretty frequent, and we just give her water, which seems to work after a 2030 second coughing fit. The cough just comes back every few hours throughout the night, and we're honestly exhausted from this routine. What could be causing this, and is there anything more we could do to help her?

give syrup ascoril twice daily for 5 days
