A. Hello, your baby girl is 9 months old and she doesn’t crawl yet so give her calcium vitamin d3 supplements syrup Ossopan D 5 ml twice a day for three months

A. Sitting without support and crawling in children may sometimes come after one year of age also. if the growth of the child is proper no need to worry. just take care of regular diet and baby massage which will help in strengthening the muscles. some cases crawling may be absent in children and directly the child will begin to stand with support and later walk with support and then without support Your child is having teething problem during which there is swelling in the gums and the child is having irritation as well as pain and there will be drooling and excessive salivation. kindly maintain oral hygiene of the child and with the help of your clean fingers press the gums of the child to decrease the pain and if the child is crying with pain and irritation you can give paracetamol also.....
