Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. that is not true and the mother can take bath but yes it's she is suffering from cough and cold then as a viral it can spread to the child
you have to give only breastfeeding /milk to the child till completion of 6 months of age and before 6 months of age if you are giving any type of outside food or complementary feeding it can cause digestion problem in the child.
no need to give water also because breast milk contains 80% of water and water also is given after six months of age only.
it is advisable to continue the the multi vitamin and supplement medicines given by your doctor.
in first six months the minimum weight gain should be 500 mg per month and it can go up to 1 kg per month also.
the urine output should be more than 6 to 7 times per day. the child should sleep after taking fdeeding.
meet the doctor for weight assessment.
if the above criteria is achieved then the child is having adequate milk intake.
if the growth of the child is proper there is no need to worry aboutd the sleeping pattern/ feeding as well as the stool frequency of the child
