A. Thank you Dr. He is normal as per his developmental milestones. Now he is 3 months 13 days. He is nearly 6 kg. He is very active and sucks well. He is breastfed and along with formula feeding. Urine and stool output is good. Only one thing bothers us is that sometimes he shows swallowing difficulty of saliva during sleep. When we make him sit, he becomes alright. His apgar score was 8 and 9 after birth and after 5 minutes respectively. Sir, my question is that is it okay is baby shows swallowing difficulty of saliva sometimes?
