I'm really worried about my 3-year-old who's been having a fever around 101 that keeps coming back every 8 hours. It's been going on for 5 days now, but there aren't any other symptoms like a cough, sneezing, or a rash. I tried giving Ibuprofen, and it seems to help, but I'm just not sure if I should be doing something else. Could you give me some advice?

A heart rate of 140 at rest and 190-202 during stress is concerning.
This could indicate:
- Tachycardia (abnormally fast heart rate)
- Anxiety or stress-related issues
- Underlying heart conditions (e.g., arrhythmias)
Consult a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation.
Treatment may involve medications (e.g., beta blockers) or lifestyle changes.
Regular monitoring and follow-up are crucial to prevent potential complications.

My little one is 4.5 months old and Ive noticed he always keeps his mouth open. Whenever I try to close it, he just opens it wider like he thinks something is coming his way. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it mean something more, or is it just a phase?
-It sounds like your little one is still learning about his surroundings and his mouth is one of the first areas he explores. It's completely normal for babies at this age to have their mouths open often as they try to understand different sensations, inc

I'm really worried because my wife started taking Cabgolin 0.25 mg to stop breastfeeding our daughter, but now our little one isn't feeling well and is really upset, constantly asking for breast milk. We couldn't do much else, so my wife ended up breastfeeding her again. Is this going to be harmful to our daughter?
usually there are no such complications no need to worry
