my 1-year-old daughter has had 2-3 whitish/gray stools in the last 2-3 days. no jaundice, eating normally, normal energy, no apparent distress. er?
stool color can mean a lot if it is persistent. stool color changes are most often due to diet changes or eating "other" stuff. if your daughter is otherwise healthy i believe you can wait this one out. if you have suspicion of ingesting something inappropriate then the er. if she has a liver infection as you seem to be thinking the stool will stay pale for longer. see more...
Hi G-del,



Thank you for asking HealthReplies.com.







Jaundice in babies can be a physiological condition (still considered normal. The reason is because the liver function is not optimal in processing and removing bilirubin from the body. This condition will generally improve and then disappear by itself when the baby is more than 1 week old.



If your baby's jaundice does not improve within 1 month, even though your baby has been breastfed enough, then this condition needs to be examined directly by a pediatrician. It is feared that your child has certain health problems, for example:



Maternal and child blood group incompatibility Abnormalities of the liver or bile ducts, eg biliary atresia, cystic fibrosis, hepatitis Sepsis (blood infection) Infections, eg rubella, syphilis Genetic disorders (congenital), eg associated with red blood cell disorders, certain enzyme deficiencies Effects side of drugs, etc. If the jaundice your baby is experiencing is pathological, then if it is not treated properly, high levels of bilirubin in the blood can accumulate in the brain and trigger brain damage known as kernicterus. Therefore, don't delay checking your child to the doctor, especially if other complaints are found, such as a weak baby, less active, rarely crying, lazy to breastfeed, fever, and even decreased consciousness. Treatment will be carried out according to the condition that underlies your child's complaint. However, in general, not only a physical examination, the doctor will also recommend that your child undergo a thorough examination, such as laboratory tests, x-rays, and so on.



In the meantime, always breastfeed your baby with exclusive breast milk as needed. At the age of 1 month, babies are generally still feeding every 1 to 2 hours. Avoid giving additional food or drink (unless advised by a doctor). You can also put your baby out in the morning sun (before 10 o'clock) to help with the jaundice.



Hope it helps ya..







dr. Nadia Nurotul Fuadah hallo worried hernia<br>a hernia will not cause blood in the stool. if it was just a little bit when you wiped, it could have been a hemorroid. if it is more ( tablespoons full), mixed with stool or splasing in the bowl you need to see your doctor as this could be signs of dangerous bowel diseases<br>dr bets hi dear,
this is not at all true.white discharge comes due to hormonal fluctuations,which is very common in pregnancy.many women report such episodes.it is normal.if the discharges are smelly or itchy,it could be a sign of yeast infection and need to be treated by doctor ,that's it.so not to worry.
älso refer the healofy app for daily updates on baby development and growth,as well as pregnancy care.it also gives you enormous info on post delivery baby care and diet.donot miss out! A.  You are right to be concerned. It sounds like your daughter has been increasingly isolating herself. Although successful in that she goes to school, her friendship circle is very limited for someone her age. Although it’s not unusual for people to talk through problems or to review their day with themselves in the privacy of the bathroom or their own room, your report that she may be punishing herself by screaming and slapping isn’t typical or okay.


Sometimes our kids can’t tell us what is troubling them so they consciously or unconsciously leave hints around so that we’ll find them. Kids sometimes “accidentally” leave a diary open where we’ll find it or “accidentally” leave a distressing email open on the family computer, for example. It’s their way of sending out a distress signal without having to quite take responsibility for doing so.



I’m guessing your daughter’s lengthy time in the bathroom is something like that. On some level she knows that you will be concerned about a two-hour stay in there.


It’s past time for you to respond to the signal. Find a therapist who specializes in young adults. Ask your doctor for a referral or click on the “Find Help” tab on the PsychCentral homepage. There may also be a behavioral health clinic at her college. Brief the therapist on the phone and ask for some guidance about how to get your daughter to go in. (Sometimes it’s helpful if a parent goes to part of the first session.) 


Then, in a loving way, let your daughter know how concerned you are. Tell her that you know that she is upset and that you want to help. Reassure her that she doesn’t deserve to be punished by herself or by anyone else – no matter what. Insist that she see the counselor. Tell her you are willing to go with her. Don’t argue. Don’t get mad. Stay in that loving, concerned place.


[Parenting](https://psychcentral.com/lib/category/parenting/) doesn’t end because a child is at the age to start leaving home. We all have to figure out when to let go and when to still pull the “parent card.” In this situation, your daughter is telling you without words that she needs you to be a mom. Please follow through. She sounds like she really needs help.


I wish you well.

Daughter Talks to Herself dear perm<br>you just have very active bowel movements - this is called borborygmi and is quite normal.<br>you can try to reduce the noise by eating regular small meals, avoiding gas forming foods and gassy cooldrinks, and drinking enough water.<br><br>dr bets hello! redness is mostly rashes only. there is nothing to worry. what you need to do first is to stop using wet wipes,if using. it makes it worse. if possible completely avoid using. also use coconut oil on the area or diaper rash cream. make sure after every potty and if baby puts diaper ,then after every diaper change or after every pee, the area is properly washed and dried and then coconut oil or diaper rash cream is applied. if the baby is on diapers then give some diaper free time. follow this for some time, it will get better. hope this helps. take care Hi.



Menstruation occurs when an egg is not fertilized by a sperm cell, so that the egg sheds and menstruation occurs. The length of menstruation itself varies from 3-7 days. From the situation you are experiencing, the blood comes out a little black and a little maybe it can be due to the rest of your menstrual blood. Sometimes menstrual periods can last longer (can last up to 10 days) and the color of menstrual blood will tend to be darker / blackish. However, this usually does not last long and does not cause other complaints, and does not require any special therapy.



If you have only had your period 1 week ago, then the possibility of pregnancy at this time is very small. Because for the occurrence of pregnancy, it is necessary to mature eggs first, while the fertile period for women only occurs about 10-14 days from the first day of the last menstruation.



But besides that, the condition you are experiencing can also be caused by other causes such as:



sexually transmitted infections, bacterial vaginosis, pelvic inflammation, uterine myoma, cervical cancer, therefore, if your condition continues to occur, then you should check with an obstetrician, so that the doctor can check your condition further. Maybe later additional examinations such as ultrasound or pap smear will be done if necessary.
