I'm really concerned because my baby has fallen off the bed three times now. Each time, he landed on his tummy, and thankfully his head didn't get hurt. He's in his ninth month and seems active and normal now. I'm just worried if these falls might cause any problems in the future. Should I be concerned about anything?

If the baby is active, no bleeding and no vomiting, then usually no need to worry. Keep a close watch for 48 hours.

View allI'm feeling a bit worried about giving Ambrolite-D to my 5 and a half-year-old son. He has a cold and cough. The thing is, I noticed it's also used for adults and says something about being for dry cough. Is it really safe for him? Just want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
Ambrolite-D is a combination of an antihistamine and a decongestant, commonly used for treating cold and cough in adults. While it may be prescribed for infants in specific doses, it's important to follow your doctor's recommendation regarding the exact dosage for your 5.5-month-old son. Please avoid self-medication and consult your pediatrician if you have concerns about its safety for your child.

I'm really worried because my 5-month-old son accidentally got a small cut on his finger while I was trimming his nails. There were just a couple of drops of blood, and I immediately applied Dettol to the area. But now I'm concerned about the possibility of tetanus. Do you think there's a risk? Should I get him a shot just to be safe?
Since the wound was minor with only a few drops of blood and you applied Dettol, the risk of tetanus infection is low; however, as a precautionary measure, consult your pediatrician, who may recommend a tetanus toxoid injection if your child hasn't received the first three doses of the DTaP vaccine or if the wound is deep or dirty.
