Hello Dr. My baby is 6+ months old. His body shivers while breast feeding. He asleeps and starts shivering. Only upper body shivers. After 4 months this started. Now after completing 6, this is more frequent. Like He shivered a week before then 3 days before and yesterday it done 2 times a day. Im freaked out. Is it due to AC or something else?

My baby is 2 year old . He has a development delay from the start.. smile 4m, rolling 6m, sitting crawling 1year, walking 1.5year. now he will be 2 year on July 26 and still haven't said a proper word ( only sounds like aa, aao, aagu, oo) hehas started pointing to things n telling in his way but not the correct word.. I do talk to him , sing rhymes.. he does the actions but no words. Then in motor skills there is a issue of bilateral coordination. He uses his left hand only when he thinks it's necessary otherwise hold it in a fist like position.. for crawling, climbing stairs, holding big object he uses both hand but prefers right in any activity n it seems he has less control over left hand.. and he drools a lot specially when he is playing, .. I am very tensed about his growth..

My 9 year old is the only child.He has got into the habit of talking to himself while playing. It seems he gives directions to himself. Also he indulges in pretend play a lot and take out different sounds while playing multiple roles. Is it appropriate for his age?

My child is 5 years old and he has tendency to wander off to far places in our society or on road's. Earlier at the age of 2-3 years he has attention deficit issue. We were very scared when we almost lost him a few times, then one of our friends told about Trakbond GPS Tracker for kids ( https://www.amazon.in/Trakbond-Smallest-Accurate-Tracking-Preconfigured/dp/B07FQFJF5N/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=trakbond&qid=1594633715&sr=8-3 ) and the company claims it's very safe for small children as radiation is very low, and also it does not have any harmful effects. This gadget helped to save our kids a few times, and we are very satisfied. We want to know if such kind of devices are safe for kids, specially Special kids with attention deficit?
