I believe my son has ADHD. How can I tell for sure?
For the benefit of you child, see your Pediatrician for a Connors score from you and the school. Then, it is a conversation with the Dr or an appointment with a neurologist, if necessary. The school may be of help, but you may get faster results on your own. READ MORE
My baby has been passing extremely yellow urine. Could it be jaundice?
Extremely yellow urine usually means not enough "free water" in the diet. If the baby was jaundiced you would notice the "yellow" color in the whites of her eyes. Try an extra ounce or two of water usually spaced out with 1/2 to 1 ounce in the morning and the same late afternoon READ MORE
My second child is 14 months old and hasn't taken her first steps. Is something wrong?
If your child will pull to a stand and "cruise" around furniture, I would be patient. By 18 months, your child should take their first "steps". If the rest of their development has been normal, just wait. READ MORE
What can i do if my child gets sick on a weekend?
Most pediatric practices have a doctor or nurse practitioner on call after hours. Many practices, including ours, have Saturday hours and some larger groups are even in their offices on Sunday. Don't get upset in advance, speak to your doctor or the office manager. READ MORE
