My little girl is 2 and almost 11 months and just a couple of days ago, she came down with a fever. We got a urine routine test done and the results mentioned that ketones were present at 50.0 mgdl and pus cells are at 10-15 WBCHPF. I'm really worried about the ketones; are they something dangerous? What should I be aware of or do next?

Pre-Pregnancy Concerns and Symptoms
Pregnancy Possibility
- Low risk, but possible: While the risk of pregnancy from non-penetrative sexual activity is low, it's not impossible, especially if there was pre-ejaculation or ejaculation near the vaginal opening.
- Pre-ejaculation fluid can contain sperm: Pre-ejaculation fluid can contain sperm, which can potentially fertilize an egg.
Symptoms and Early Signs of Pregnancy
- Common symptoms: Burps (gas), constipation, nipple pain, and pimple formation can be early signs of pregnancy, but they can also be caused by other factors, such as hormonal changes, stress, or digestive issues.
- Not conclusive evidence: These symptoms alone do not confirm pregnancy.
Next Steps
- Take a pregnancy test: Wait until after your expected period (around 4-5 days after your missed period) and take a home pregnancy test (HPT) or visit a healthcare provider for a blood test.
- Consult a healthcare provider: If you're concerned about pregnancy or experiencing symptoms, consult a healthcare provider for guidance and support.

Now she's got both cold and cough again. Can we use moxikind for her cold while still giving her monocef and phensedyl for the cough? I'm a bit worried and just want to make sure we're doing the right thing.

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.

My little one is 4.5 months old and Ive noticed he always keeps his mouth open. Whenever I try to close it, he just opens it wider like he thinks something is coming his way. Is this something I should be concerned about? Could it mean something more, or is it just a phase?
-It sounds like your little one is still learning about his surroundings and his mouth is one of the first areas he explores. It's completely normal for babies at this age to have their mouths open often as they try to understand different sensations, inc
