I'm really concerned about my baby who's just 2 months old. My in-laws keep giving him a honey nipple whenever he cries at night. I'm worried he might be getting used to it or needs it to calm down instead of naturally settling. Could there be any side effects from him suckling on a honey nipple? And how can I help him break this habit if it's not good for him?

my son had TB and just had intestine surgery should I get the whole family checked for TB too

People with active TB are most likely to spread it to close contacts, including family members. If your son had pulmonary or laryngeal TB, there's a higher risk of transmission to household members. If your son had abdominal TB, which is less likely to spread, testing family members is still a good precaution

I'm wondering if it's alright to combine Duolin 2ml and Budecort 3ml for a single nebulization session, or should I do them in separate rounds?

You can mix Duolin (2ml) and Budecort (3ml) in one nebulization session, as they are commonly used together for combined bronchodilator and anti-inflammatory effects. Just ensure you follow your doctor's instructions and the prescribed dosage for your condition.
