"As a new parent, it's common to feel overjoyed and excited as your little one starts to hit new milestones. However, as the baby reaches the 3 month mark, drooling may increase, leading to a rash on the face and neck. Dr. Spoorti Kapate, consultant Pediatrician and neonatologist at Cloudnine Hospital, Electronic City has an informative video on Drool Rash in Babies that can provide you with all the information you need to treat this condition"

"So the next question is nursemaid's elbow. It is also commonly called as pulled elbow. It is basically dislocation of a bone from the elbow joint your radius bone is dislocated or it comes out of the socket of the elbow joint"

"So meconium aspiration means that intrauterine or when the baby was inside the mother's womb due to any kind of stress the baby has passed meconium or the first stool and it gets mixed up with the amniotic fluid and sometimes the babies can aspirate it which means that the meconium can go into the lungs of the baby. Once the meconium goes inside the lungs there is no way to take it out if it is this slight mechanism in the nose or the mouth you can just suction it out . But apart from that if the meconium has gone into the lungs there is no way to take it out. So this condition leads to a medical we call it chemical pneumonitis. So meconium aspiration actually leads to chemical pneumonitis which means that the baby has pneumonia because of it. The baby will have breathing difficulty. The difficulty could be from mild to severe where in mild you might just have to give a little bit of oxygen, moderate maybe you'll have to give put the baby on a respiratory support called HFNC and if it is very severe may also need ventilation, which means that we put a tube inside the baby's throat and put the baby on the ventilator and help the baby breathe better. So again depending on the severity of the condition the baby can stay in the ICU for like I said depending on the condition from one day to a few weeks. The treatment is basically oxygen you give antibiotics to control the infection and you give whatever breathing support that the baby needs and you wait it out there is no way to fasten the process of healing. In a chemical pneumonitis the body automatically absorbs this meconium that has been aspirated and the baby eventually gets better. So it is very hard to say how long the baby is going to be in the ICU it depends on the condition of the baby"

"Babies can pass motion, they can pass motion as frequent as 10 to 15 times in a day, it can be once in a week also both the conditions are normal and the variation in terms of color is also normal. Babies can have yellow stools, green stools or brown stools when to worry is when they are passing white, pale, chalky , grayish colour stools or there is blood in stools. So these are the scenarios where you have to meet the pediatrician but other than this any other colour is normal. It is not necessary that the baby will have the same colour everyday. There can be slight variations"

"Autism symptoms can be picked up from 6 months and most commonly picked up from 6 to 18 months. The earlier the symptoms are picked up the better is it to start with occupational therapy. The sooner symptoms are picked up the better is it for the baby. Parents can monitor developmental milestone at home or pediatricians can pick this up when baby is brought for Vaccination. The most common symptoms of autism which can help discover Autism are developmental delays like: Developmental delay in speech Baby might fixate at an object Baby might not respond to their names baby might not point at things"

"What happens is when the baby is inside the mother's womb whatever nutrient is needed for the baby oxygen and the nutrients is given through the placenta umbilical cord to the baby. When the baby is born the umbilical cord is cut. At the same time the baby starts crying which is equivalent to breathing in newborn babies and oxygen is supplied to all the major organs of the body . If the baby doesn't cry that means that the oxygen is not being delivered to the organs of the baby. When the oxygen is not delivered it means that the functioning of that particular organ is going to be hampered and when the baby breathes or cries oxygen is delivered through the heart and you know pumping of their heart to all the organs at the same time. So all the organs are basically affected if the baby doesn't cry at birth because we know oxygen is very important to sustain life. So to answer the question if the baby doesn't cry it affects the organs all the organs most importantly the brain but does it happen immediately? No because most of the deliveries that happen are attended by a pediatrician or a neonatologist be it in a hospital or a nursing home or even the government hospitals PHC, CHC, the delivery is attended by a pediatrician or neonatologist. So if the baby doesn't cry at birth the pediatrician the doctor will give an artificial breath to the baby using equipments like a Ambu bag or an I Puff or a Neopuff so even if the baby is not breathing we will give an artificial breath to the baby and ensure oxygenation. But if the baby doesn't cry for a very long time say 10 minutes and we are trying to give artificial breath to the baby. Beyond that time that can have harmful effects . So if your baby doesn't cry at birth and we give a respiratory support to the baby and the baby starts crying say within 10 seconds or 30 seconds or less than one minute the effects are not detrimental but then if it goes beyond. The longer the baby goes without crying and we have to give artificial breathing to the baby the poorer the baby's condition would be and the higher the effect of non-oxygenation would be"
