A. Hello dear parent! Might be due to teething. Gently press your child’s gums with a soft cotton cloth dipped in cold water to reduce teething discomfort. As long as your baby is active and healthy, passing urine 6 to 8 times in a day, gradually gaining weight then nothing to worry. Continue breastfeeding your baby well on demand. Good luck and take care.
