Hi I am Cithara Rajeev from Ernakulam, India. Here my kid(son) is 17 days old and my querry is Is there any worms in my kids stomach and if can u explain how it entered in his stomach. Is it because of my food during pregnancy period. I had lots of biscuits during pregnenecy period. Is that is the reason .
Hi, I am not aware why you are suspecting worms there. Did you see any worms in his stool or perineum? Worms are transmitted faeco-orally-ie. Through contaminated hand / water / food. We don't expect a newborn baby on exclusive breast milk to get worm infection. And diet of mother, either before or after delivery has nothing to do with this. All you need to take care is to keep your hand clean(wash with soap and water after using toilet / washroom and before feeding baby). Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
