My son of 15 weeks poo is very hard which makes him cry when he wants to poo. Can I give him orange juice to soften it or is there...
Yes give orange.. Diluted with water.... Mash the banana to give. It is okay. You can also add the fruit to the cereals.

Please try to increase the consistency of the formulae i.e. make sure you adhere strictly to the method of preparation. And also give lots of water.

Hello ma'am, your baby's weight is below average. Ideally babies are expected to gain about 1kg for full term baby and 600g for preterm babies monthly. And should double their weight at six months.
Is it advisable to use a hand fan on a 15 weeks old baby?
  • Best Answer
You can hand fan, use electric fan or even air conditioner for the child. There is nothing wrong with using the Fan or AC as long as the fan is not blowing directly on the baby. Meanwhile, try and keep the baby warm and continue exclusive breastfeeding....No need for twice or thrice daily baths....dress baby comfortably according to the weather....Open the windows and let the room be well-aerated. There is no need to over cover the baby and keep in a stuffy room in hot season like we are having right now
