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.

View allI'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.

I'm really worried about my son. He got tested positive for TB a couple of months back. He had a cough and fever then, and hes also been dealing with asthma and diarrhea for about two months. So, the doctor said its TB, IBD, and asthma, and hes on medication for all of it. Just last week, he had a mild fever and dry cough again, and now he's positive for COVID. I'm really confused about when he'll be eligible for the COVID vaccine and if it's safe for him to go back to school without it. Can you advise on what steps we should take next?

My baby is only a month old and has a nose block which makes it hard for him to breathe. I am worried about him and want to know if it's okay to use Nasivion 0.025 for a little one his age. The doctor said to use Nasoclear, but I couldn't find it anywhere. What should I do? Can you recommend anything else that's safe?
