My baby son has been pooping 6-7 times a day but in small amounts. It was different a month ago when he would poop 2-3 times a day but in larger amounts. The poop is a bit greenish and semiliquid. He's showing no signs of discomfort unless he's hungry, hes active, and his sleep is good. Hes only breastfed, and he weighs about 8.2 kgs. Should I be worried about this change in his pooping pattern?

My 2-year-old daughter has been diagnosed with asthma, and I'm really worried because we've seen multiple pediatricians without much improvement. About a year ago, she started with a severe cough that lasted for around five months, and we treated her for just that before realizing it was asthma. Were currently giving her salbutamol and prednisolone, but I'm concerned about whether this is the best treatment plan or if there's something else we should consider. Could you offer any guidance or suggestions?

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?
