My baby(boy, 1.5 yrs, 11kg) is hving loose motions since 2 weeks.Less interestd in eating food nw.His activities are normal. Teething? Normal?

Teething symptoms: Some children do get a low grade fever, diarrhea and drooling. You can treat them simultaneously. Ibuprofen is more effective for teething than tylenol (acetaminophen). You can also let your baby chew on a cold teething ring. Keep the fluids coming. If you prefer tylenol (acetaminophen), it is important you do not give your baby more than four doses of Acetaminophen per 24 hours. Acetaminophen really challenges the liver. ...Read more

My son's temperature is 103.6 he is smiling but tired runny nose?

Fever runny nose: Poor baby! You did not mention age. If he is 30 days or less he needs an emergency room visit now. In older babies, who have had contacts with illness, and clear signs of a new viral cold (congestion) we can watch him at home. I'm glad to see he's giving you some smiles. Keep him hydrated and if he appears ill a dose of Motrin is ok ( if he's over six months) hope He's better soon! ...Read more
