Question

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?

Question

Why does fever increase at night?

Question

My daughter's been dealing with cough, cold, and fever since yesterday morning, and her fever spikes up to 101 degrees. When we give her Dolo or Ibugesic syrup, the fever drops but comes back after about 6 hours. She also experiences chills before the fever returns. We've been giving her Timnic for the cold and Tycklix for the cough. Can you tell me how long it might take for her to stabilize? Should we be thinking about antibiotics now? Just last week, she had stomach issues and fever, and was on Rantac and Azee syrup for that. What should we do?

Question

I'm wondering about my baby's mundan ceremony. He's 4 months old right now. Is it okay to do the ceremony when he's 5 months, or should we wait longer for his head scalp to become harder? What do you recommend?
