My baby's lips have started turning a blackish color over the last couple of days. She's eating normally, and everything seems fine in that department. However, she's passing liquid stool, and I'm concerned it might be related to the heat here. Could you provide some guidance on what might be happening?

It's good to hear that your baby is feeding well. Blackish lips can sometimes be due to dehydration or a lack of oxygen, but its important to monitor if this persists. The liquid stools could indeed be due to the heat; keep her well-hydrated, and if the symptoms continue or worsen, Id recommend a pediatricians consultation for a thorough checkup.

How long do fevers last?
Fever is just a symptom of any underlying bacterial or viral infection and so, duration of fever depends on that particular causative organism. Usually, most fevers usually go away in 1 to 3 days in adults.

My baby girl just turned 4 months old and started her 5th month. Our pediatrician suggested we start her on solids. I'm wondering what the best solids are to begin with at this age. I've already made some ragi malt and boiled rice kanji at home. What's the best way to prepare kanji for my baby? Is it okay to add formula or expressed breast milk to it? If I introduce solid food once a day, how many milk feeds should she still have? What other solids would be suitable for her age? I'm also curious about the best way to feed her ragi kanji. She really doesn't like palada. Would using a bottle, cup and spoon, or sipper be better for her? I'd appreciate some guidance.
