Asked for female, 8 years old from Hubli-Dharwad

My son 11 years old still pooping in his inner ware, please tell me what must be the problem with him. I have consulted many doctors & the say that after some years it will be ok & he will start going to toilet like others, but still the problem remains as it is. Please guide me what to do.

He may have tension or anxiety in his mind. You should not scold him or discuss this nature in public. After a while he will become normal. You also check if has any amoebic infection or irritable bowel syndrome.

My baby is 2 month 9 days n has not passed stool since 2 days. He is on breast feed but I need to give diluted cows milk once in day that to 60 ml only. He is not taking formula feed. Is it ok or any problem is there. He is passing gas.

Give exclusive breastfeeding only up to 6 months of age. If stool is normal n passing once in 3 to 4 days, there is no cause of worry.

Asked for female, 31 years old from Udupi

Hi, I have a three months old baby who refuses to breastfeed suddenly. Its been one month now, sometime it's really frustrating whenever I tried to feed him he cries like anything so this days I am usually feeding him when he sleeps. Even if I tried to hold him on my lap he cries thinking that I am going to feed him. Please help.

If he is given bottle feed also it can cause nipple and breast confusion and stop bottle and give breast milk only . Refusal to feed can also be a sign of infection and need to see if he has other symptoms also
