Is it normal for my 2.5-year-old to be passing more gas than usual? It's been happening for a couple of weeks now. I'm giving him polyethylene glycol for constipation, so I'm wondering if that could be related. Should I be concerned?

Can parents have sex if their child has chicken pox? Are there any risks involved or precautions we should take?

Parents can still have sex when their child has chicken pox, but it is important to take precautions to prevent the spread of the virus. Chicken pox is highly contagious, so it is recommended to avoid direct contact with the child's rash and any fluid from the blisters. It is also important to practice good hand hygiene before and after any contact with the child. As for safe ways for sex, it is advisable to wait until the child is no longer contagious, which is usually once all the blisters have crusted over. Using condoms can also help reduce the risk of transmitting the virus. If either parent has not had chicken pox before or has not been vaccinated, they should take extra precautions to avoid exposure.
