Accepted Answer

Termination: If you can not financially or emotionally bring another child into your life, than you should opt for the termination. Please after this, get information and use a good form of birth control. It is not a wise idea to keep having terminations.

Question 5

what skills must a 1-year-old child have?

Accepted Answer

See below: Most one year old children are crawling, pulling to stand, cruising, saying mama and dada, doing imitative behavior, and starting to become independent. They will enjoy peek-a-boo, pat-a-cake, etc.  They are also normally waving. However, there is a lot of variability in development. And the whole child's picture needs to be taken into account. Any concerns should be discussed.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

Transitioning infant: This is going to behavior reconditioning that you and your baby are going to have to work on together. You must gradually wean the baby off of milk, and onto a healthy well balanced diet

Seek assurance from an infant nutritionist and behavioral therapist or recommended transitions from breast feeding to regular diet fails after age 2.

Question 7

what foods can we feed to our 1 year old child to reduce his risk of getting diabetes as he grows up?

Accepted Answer

: Lean proteins, leafy green vegetables, fruit, calcium usually from dairy and complex carbohydrates are the core of a healthy diet.  Avoiding simple sugars and limiting concentrated sweets is also advised.

Question 8

my son is 1 year old and he has a cough for 3 day what medcne should i give and how much dosage.his weight is 10.2kl.thnkyou.i need ur response plz?

Accepted Answer

Too young: He is too young for any otc meds, and generally no good evidence to suggest that they help with cold and cough symptoms.  I would recommend elevating the bed, humidifier

Question 9

if a 1 year old child usually wakes up in the middle of the night, is it normal or does she have a problem?

Accepted Answer

Likely norm behavior: Most 1 year olds wake because they are used to it, and getting secondary gain, like seeing you or eating. Perhaps they aren't used to soothing themselves to get themselves back to sleep. Teething can wake them up, and colds or viruses can be irritating. Discuss this in depth with your pediatrician, as there will be clues what the real story is.

Question 10

should i alternate fever medications for a 1 year old child?

Accepted Answer

Should-N0: There are many opinions on the treatment of fever in children.  Not all fever has to be treated.  Acetamenophen is a good fever reducer. Ibuprofen is a good fever reducer.  Depending on the age of the child & the weight of the child, either is acceptable.  Some physicians recommend alternating a dose of one with the other every 4 hours so that no one drug get in the toxic range.  Discuss with pcp.
