Please next time take such young babies to see a Paediatrician not the health centres. I will still ask you to take her to see a doctor preferably a Paediatrician at a Teaching Hospital or any standard hospital. In that age, not every fever is Malaria and we will not use intramuscular injections to treat malaria in such age groups

I'm sure the parents are already seeing a Paediatric Cardiologist. The breathing will not be normal until surgery. Unfortunately we don't raise funds on ATP for individuals. Let the parents approach media houses and other foundations eg MTN foundation, Kanu Heart Foundation etc for financial support. All the best.

X-rays only does not tell you a baby is fine depending on the condition.... This kind of cases are best managed by specialists at Teaching Hospitals. Kindly take the child back to the hospital preferably a Teaching Hospital to see a Paediatric Surgeon for further evaluation and management
Cod liver oil has many health benefits for kids; however, you should only give this oil to your kid after it has been prescribed by your doctor. If your doctor feels the need, he may prescribe cod liver oil supplements to your child. Babies who are still on breast milk can derive its benefits if the mother takes cod liver oil.
He is on exclusive breast feeding . But sometimes when the breast milk isn’t available I give him formula
