Constipation In Infants Symptoms Treatment And When To Call A Doctor

An infant’s BM pattern can change if their diet changes, like switching from breastmilk to formula, starting solid foods, or drinking less formula than usual. If your baby’s stool (poop) is not soft or easily passed, then they may be constipated....

First Things First Before Surgery

Will it hurt? Can mom and dad be with me? How long will I be asleep? Questions like these are easier to answer with the right information. What to tell a child about an operation depends on his or her age, emotional maturity and coping abilities. Most importantly, be as open and honest with your child as possible. Use familiar words that are non-threatening and easy to understand such as “sore” instead of “pain” or “sleep doctor” instead of “anesthesiologist....
