I'm a bit worried about my son who's just 2 months and 16 days old. He doesn't really show any obvious symptoms of a cold but I've noticed he sneezes once or twice in the evenings and sometimes I hear a sound from his chest, although not consistently. Could this mean he has a cold or cough, even though he doesn't have a runny or stuffy nose? What should I do?

I'm really concerned because my 7-month-old baby poops right after feeding. We're giving her a diet that includes cerelac and milk. Is it normal for her to poop so soon after eating, or is there something we should be worried about?

It is quite common for babies to have bowel movements after feeding, especially when they are consuming milk or cerelac. This is because the gastrocolic reflex is stimulated by the intake of food, leading to bowel movements. However, if your baby's stools are consistently watery, contain blood, or if your baby is showing signs of discomfort or distress, it is important to consult a pediatrician. In the meantime, you can try giving your baby Simethicone drops to help with any gas or discomfort. Remember to always consult with your pediatrician before giving any medication to your baby.

Im really worried about my 6-year-old daughter. Shes been running a high fever for the past two days. Our doctor recommended giving her both Calpol and Meftal-P, 6 ml each. Is it okay to administer both of these at the same time?

Yes, it is safe to give Calpol (paracetamol) along with Meftal P (mefenamic acid) for fever in children. Both medications work in different ways to reduce fever and can be given together as per your doctor's recommendation.

I'm really concerned about my 3-month-old baby because my husband drinks alcohol every day and sleeps right next to the baby. I'm worried if this could affect our baby in any way. Are there any possible side effects I should be aware of?

It's understandable to be concerned. If your husband is drinking alcohol regularly, there's a risk of accidental exposure to secondhand alcohol or other issues, especially if he's not fully alert while sleeping next to the baby. It's important to ensure a safe, sober environment for your baby to avoid any risks, including suffocation or impaired caregiving.
