I'm really worried about my 14-month-old daughter; she's not walking yet, just crawling, and her weight seems quite low at 7.2 kg. She was 2.8 kg at birth. I'm not breastfeeding anymore and I've been giving her cow's milk along with soft food three times a day. She eats well, but she's having stools 2 to 3 times daily. The doctor recommended Bevcon syrup for a month, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Could you suggest what else I should consider or if there's another syrup that might help?

I'm really concerned because my 2-month-old baby, who's exclusively breastfed, has been experiencing loose motions three times a day. Is this normal for her age and diet, or should I be worried about something else going on?

It's possible that your baby is experiencing loose motions due to a mild viral infection, a sensitivity to something in your diet, or even teething. Since shes exclusively breastfed, its important to monitor her hydration and consult with a pediatrician to rule out any underlying causes.

I'm really worried because Sidrah has been dealing with a cold and cough for the past three days. It's more of a wet cough. I've been giving her Relent plus for two days and started Asthakind DX yesterday. Could you give me some advice on how to help her get better?

She seems to be suffering from common cold which is a common type of nose and throat virus infection. Usually it will resolve on its own within few days. You can continue giving medications. No specific treatment is really needed. Self medications are better avoided
