I'm trying to decide between Nan Pro and Lactogen for my 8-month-old baby. Can you help me understand the differences and which one might be better? I'm really curious about the benefits of each formula and if there's one that's more suited for my baby at this stage.

Nan Pro and Lactogen are both infant formulas, but they have some differences in their composition. Nan Pro is a specially formulated infant formula that contains probiotics and is designed to support healthy gut flora in infants. It also contains DHA, ARA, and essential vitamins and minerals for overall growth and development. For an 8-month-old baby, you can consider using Nan Pro 2, which is suitable for infants from 6 months onwards. On the other hand, Lactogen is also an infant formula that provides essential nutrients for infants. It does not contain probiotics like Nan Pro, but it is still a good option for infant nutrition. For an 8-month-old baby, you can use Lactogen 2, which is suitable for infants from 6 months onwards. Both Nan Pro and Lactogen are good options for infant nutrition, but the choice between the two may depend on your baby's specific needs and any recommendations from your pediatrician.

My 3-month-old has some yellowish liquid coming from one of their ears, and I'm really worried about what this might mean. Is this kind of issue something common among babies? Could it turn out to be something serious?
The yellowish liquid discharge from a 3-month-old baby's ear could be due to a middle ear infection (otitis media), earwax buildup, or a blocked Eustachian tube; this is a relatively common issue in infants, but it's essential to consult a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation and guidance on treatment, which may include antibiotics or ear drops, to prevent potential complications like hearing loss or ear drum damage.
