Sneezing is the body trying to get rid of something irritating the nostrils....it is a protective reflex especially when the baby is exposed to those irritating substances or germs. There is no need to stop a baby from sneezing.....It is protective; however, you need to monitor the baby to watch out for respiratory infections which can happen when these protective influences are overwhelmed.

Babies on EBF can poo several times daily and sometimes not poo for days. If the poo does not sink completely into the diaper but has semi-formed solids like melon then there's nothing to worry about. Just continue exclusive breastfeeding

Exclusive breastfeeding is the best for your baby in the first 6 months as we always advocate here

Give your baby water after every formula feed and ensure you constitute the formula as recommended by the Manufacturers...right amount of scoop to the appropriate amount of water "

Kindly follow the recommendations of the pediatrician you visited.

As long as the poo is normal its nothing to worry about. EBF babies can poo everyday.

The baby is just 4 months..... Complementary feeding should be started at 6 months. Continue to breastfeed the baby exclusively.
