My daughter is 5 months old and only just turned over now. Should I be worried?
Since we’ve been having babies sleep on their backs to prevent sudden infant death syndrome, rolling over has moved from a four month old skill to a 5 month old skill. If she’s reaching for objects, watching you walk across the room, cooing laughing and squealing, and likes to stand in your lap, she’s right on track for her development. Please read to her every day! READ MORE
My child's appetite has lessened after a throat infection. What should I do?
Make sure she’s drinking plenty of fluids and offer several small meals a day. Try cold soft foods like applesauce and yogurt. READ MORE
What medicine can I give my child for headaches?
First, add water! Dehydration is a common cause for headache. Then, try lying down with a cool cloth on the forehead. Last, try children’s acetaminophen. READ MORE
Is it advisable to start my daughter on vitamin D supplements?
Everyone should get 400-600international units per day. That may be already in her multivitamin. Make sure she gets three calcium servings per day to build strong bones. READ MORE
My child refuses to drink milk. Will it cause any health issues for him?
Milk is a good source of calcium, but so is cheese and yogurt. Calcium and Vitamin D fortified orange juice is another option. READ MORE
