If You Post Anything About Your Baby Online, Please Follow These 10 Rules To Keep Him Safe!
Happiness multiplies when shared, right? In this age of social media and the internet, we have an amazing platform to share our happiness with the important people in our life. With just a few clicks, we can connect with loved ones across the globe and keep them cued in on major events in our life and the lives of our little darlings. However, when you use the internet to share anything at all about your baby, it is critical that you observe caution. The web is indeed a webby world, and there can be danger for your child if these safety precautions are missed.
Important Internet Safety Rules When Posting About Kids Online
Rule 1. DO NOT Post Naked Photos of Your Baby
There is no denying that our babies are super, duper cute, from head to toe – and bum included! However, even though all of us click those cute photos of our baby when he is wearing his birthday suit, it is best to not post these online. The internet is notorious for abounding in cyber criminals, including people who indulge in child pornography. Plus, you don’t want these pictures to become a source of embarrassment for your child when he grows up (imagine what will happen if someone re-shares this pictures years later on his/her Facebook timeline!)
Rule 2. DO NOT Disclose Your Kids’ Location
This is particularly important if your little one stays outside home for some time every day, say in daycare, a crèche or at the playground. When you post pictures with location-enabled on Facebook or Instagram, what if someone fishy figures it out and uses this info to trace your child? There have been many cases in the past when internet-derived locations enabled kidnappers and criminals to locate the kids, especially if they are people in and around your neighbourhood. It is best to avoid giving away specific location details online such as house number and block number.
Rule 3. Be Careful if You Post Your Ultrasound Photos
Those ultrasound photos have a special, undying charm, especially the one where we first saw our baby! However, if you post your ultrasound photos, remember that they often include the date, doctor’s name and the hospital where the ultrasound was taken. This is too much identifying information to be safe on the World Wide Web! We recommend cropping that part out if you decide to post it.
Rule 4. Avoid Complaining About Your Kids
We have all spent sleepless nights trying to get the baby to sleep. On some days, it is harder than others, and we wish we could just go on a long vacation. However, try and limit your complaints about parenting and children as far as possible. This is in your best interests only; in the long run, spreading negativity does not do anything to resolve it.
Rule 5. Update Your Privacy Settings on All Social Media Channels
Who all can see the information or pictures you share on your Facebook timeline? What about Instagram and Twitter? You don’t want random strangers or people you barely know to be able to see personal pictures of you and your family. To avoid this, make sure you update your privacy settings as often as possible and keep it close, i.e. people you know well (friends of friends of friends may not be a good idea!). This is one of the most crucial rules of cyber safety for kids too, when they become old enough to use the internet themselves.
Rule 6. Avoid Sharing Embarrassing Pictures/Details About Kids
Admittedly, many of these things are funny – a soiled diaper just after you changed it, for example. However, not every private moment between your baby and you should be accessible to the outside world. This is even more important for specific things that your child may do – e.g. bedwetting, or being punished for throwing a tantrum. Every baby does soil diapers, but some moments are meant only for mommy! The main reason we advise this is that such pictures or status updates can embarrass or shame your kids in later years. Violating their privacy even in the early years might create a dent in your otherwise positive relationship with the kids.
Rule 7. DO NOT Post Pictures of Others’ Kids Without Permission
All the kids in your colony may have attended your baby’s first birthday party, and you want to document the moment forever. However, think: how irritated does it make you when someone tags you in a picture you did not want your friends/family to see? Without checking first if you were okay with it? The same rule applies to kids of other people. Some parents don’t like to share pictures of their kids or disclose their details to others. As a rule, never post their pictures before first confirming with their parents.
Rule 8. Ask Family and Friends to Get Your Go-Ahead Before Posting Your Kids’ Pictures
An extension of the above rule, you too must make sure that no one posts pictures of your baby without asking your permission first. This includes your family members too – your in-laws, relatives, guests who came to the party, and friends. Ask them politely to please check with you before posting any pictures on social media (and this includes posting even if they have not tagged you! You may not be aware of it but that picture you didn’t want to make public lurks somewhere on the internet…)
Rule 9. DO NOT Reveal These Details About Your Baby Online
There are some very personal details that equal to sensitive data. This data must never be shared online, even if it seems harmless to do so. When you’re trying to figure out how to stay safe on the internet, NEVER share these things:
Where your child goes to play in the evening
The address (or other details) of your child’s friends and their houses
When you are going to be away from home
Any information that gives away when the child will be alone/with a babysitter
Details about your workplace, address, identity, etc. that someone can use to impersonate you
Rule 10. DO NOT Criticise Others’ Parenting Style/Decisions
Just because we as parents DO NOT use pacifiers, or DO NOT babywear, or DO NOT let our baby sleep separately, it does not give us the right to criticise other parents who do! The way we parent and the decisions we take are ours alone. If we want others to accept our decisions, we must be accepting of their decisions and choices too. While this is not a safety hazard per se, it does circulate a feeling of negativity and judgment – something no parent needs in this already challenging journey.
So moms, how many of the above rules have you been following? They are essential to make sure that your experience of the internet and social media is joyful and safe – just what you want for your baby. Read more

Kidney Stones During Pregnancy
Kidney stones can be very painful to bear, especially when you are pregnant. While being pregnant does not increase your chances of getting kidney stones, it makes it complicated to diagnose and administer the usual methods of treatment due to the risks of harming the foetus. While most kidney stones may pass without the need for any treatment, some of them may cause intense pain. In such cases, medical treatment is recommended.
Causes of Kidney Stone During Pregnancy
Although being pregnant does not mean that you are at a higher risk of getting kidney stones, there are certain causes that can connect kidney stones and pregnancy. Some of the common causes of kidney stones during pregnancy are:
1. Lack of fluids: A common reason for kidney stones is the inadequate consumption of water. The lack of fluids in your body causes an increase in the concentration of minerals like phosphorous and calcium in the urine, which leads to the formation of kidney stones. During pregnancy, your body requires more water than usual. Drinking less than the required amount of water may thus lead to kidney stones.
2. Genetic predisposition: The genetic makeup of your body may also increase your chances of kidney stones. If you are from a family with a high incidence of hypercalciuria - a condition where there is an excess quantity of calcium in the urine - you may be more prone to kidney stones during pregnancy.
3. Bowel irritation: If you have gastrointestinal sensitivity, you may be prone to hypercalciuria or be at a higher risk of kidney stones. This is because chronic inflammation in the bowels may increase the number of calcium ions that are deposited on the kidneys, which then turn into crystals.
4. High calcium intake: Pregnant women are encouraged to consume more calcium - this may put extra pressure on the kidneys and cause crystal formation on the kidneys. Also, as your body absorbs a lot of calcium to aid the development of the baby, you may have a higher chance of getting kidney stones.
5. Increased filtration: Due to an increase in the filtration activity of the kidney, the amount of uric acid that you excrete may also increase, which may lead to uric acid stones.
6. Dilation of the uterus: The upper urinary tract may become large during pregnancy, which can cause an incomplete clearing of the urine and increase the risk of kidney stone formation.
7. UTIs: Constant urinary tract infections during pregnancy may be indicative of kidney stones.
Signs and Symptoms
The signs and symptoms of kidney stones during pregnancy aren’t unlike the usual ones. However, there are no specific symptoms that indicate kidney stones and any pregnancy complications caused due to it. Some of the common symptoms of kidney stones during pregnancy include:
1. Pain: Intense pain is one the first and the most common signs of kidney stones. The area of the pain is based on where the stone is, internally. If the stone is in your kidney, you will experience pain in the back, below the rib cage area. Once the stone moves down to the ureter, you will experience pain on the side of your body. As the stone moves further down the ureter, you may even feel pain near your genitals or in the thigh. Apart from this, you may also feel pain in your lower abdomen.
2. Pain during urination: If the stone has travelled down and is stuck at the lower end of the ureter, you are likely to have intense pain while urinating.
3. Blood in the urine: As the stones in the kidney move spontaneously, they may damage the tissues and the cells in the kidney. This may lead to blood in the urine.
Apart from these symptoms, you may also have vomiting, nausea, fever with chills (indicates infection), or may even feel some distension in the abdomen.
How Is Kidney Stone Diagnosed During Pregnancy?
A blood and urine analysis is performed to diagnose kidney stones during pregnancy. A urine test can identify blood, crystals of calcium or uric acid in the urine. A urine culture test can also recognise infection-causing organisms and determine what antibodies they are sensitive to.
A renal ultrasound may be conducted as it is a painless procedure that does not expose the foetus to radiation. However, the drawback of undergoing a renal ultrasound is that it cannot identify certain types of kidney stones and may not be able to identify the cause of an enlarged kidney (whether it is due to pregnancy or due to the obstruction caused by a kidney stone).
X-rays and CT scans are avoided to prevent any damage to the foetus. While an MRI is considered safe as it does not use radiation or contrast materials, it is still not advisable to use it to detect kidney stones during pregnancy.
Indications When Surgical Intervention Is Advised
If natural and conservative remedies do not work, you may have to opt for surgical intervention to get rid of kidney stones under these circumstances:
The stones that have obstructed the urinary tract have caused pyelonephritis or inflammation due to bacterial infection
If you have only one kidney
Acute kidney failure
Intense pain
Risk of premature labour due to kidney pain
How to Get Rid of Kidney Stones While Pregnant
If you notice any symptoms of kidney stones, it is advisable to consult a urologist for treatment options. Here are some of the methods used to get rid of kidney stones during pregnancy. Treatment methods are also dependent on the nature of your kidney stones and the trimester that you are in.
1. Medical Treatment
Paracetamols are prescribed to relieve pain caused due to kidney stones. However, in the event that medication fails to reduce your pain, or if there is any indication of preterm labour, you may need surgical intervention.
2. Surgical Treatment
Ureteroscopy – this procedure is used for diagnosis as well as for breaking down the stones. A small tube called a ureteroscope is inserted into the kidney, which passes through the ureter, the urethra, and the urinary bladder. The process uses a laser to break the stones. This procedure is only ideal for stones smaller than 1 cm.
Tube or stent placement – this procedure uses a hollow tube passed through the ureters to drain the urine and the stones. It is minimally invasive and needs local anaesthesia at most.
Shockwave therapy and open surgery - these are not prescribed to pregnant women due to risks to the foetus.
3. Natural/Home Remedies
Conservative methods and natural remedies are the most preferred treatment for kidney stones. Some of these include,
Intake of water: Drinking at least 8 glasses of water every day can help dilute the minerals and organic salts in the urine. It also helps clear small stones from the kidneys.
Fruits: Consuming fruits like watermelon, blueberries, peaches, and other fruits that have high water content is also beneficial.
Avoid commercial juices: Packaged juices have a high mineral (and possibly added sugar) and salt content which may make your condition worse.
Lemon: Lemon is known to break down medium-sized stones and also open up the ureters, helping the stones pass without much pain.
Apple Cider Vinegar: ACV contains acetic acid which dissolved kidney stones. Just adding a tablespoon or two to 1 litre of water and drinking it through the day can be helpful. However, make sure to check with your doctor as the consumption of ACV should be limited during pregnancy.
Basil Juice: Like ACV, basil contains acetic acid which can be helpful in breaking down kidney stones. Basil generally helps with inflammation as well. Simply take some fresh or dried basil leaves, boil them in water, and consume the tea. Avoid the prolonged consumption of this tea as it may cause problems like low blood pressure and blood sugar. Always consult with your doctor before trying any home remedy, especially during pregnancy.
Prevention
Some of the best ways to prevent kidney stones are:
Drink a lot of water. A minimum of two litres or eight glasses per day is essential.
Reduce your salt intake. Avoid junk food especially, as it may contain unhealthy amounts of monosodium chloride.
Avoid excess calcium. Keep your calcium intake under 1000 to 1200 mg per day.
Talk to your doctor about your medication. Certain medications can make a person susceptible to kidney stones. If you are on medication – any medication, regardless of whether you have been prescribed them during pregnancy – mention them to your doctor. In any case, however, do not stop consuming those medicines without your doctor’s approval.
Reduce your consumption of certain foods. Green leafy vegetables, chicken, fish, nuts, beetroot, chocolate, peanuts, beef, red meat, tea, and coffee can make a person more vulnerable to kidney stones.
Kidney stones can occur during pregnancy, and in most cases can be treated using natural treatment methods. However, in case the pain is severe, you will need to opt for medical or surgical treatments to alleviate it. Always remember to reach out to a doctor immediately after you notice symptoms of kidney stones to get the appropriate treatment method and avoid complications.

Timing Contractions during Labour - Importance and Procedure
When you are reaching close to the end of your pregnancy, every prick in your stomach starts to feel like a contraction. You may wonder each time, “Am I having a contraction or is that just gas”? Let’s see how you can differentiate.
What Do Contractions Feel Like?
Contractions are a major sign of going into labour. There are three types of contractions, out of which you need to time only the real contractions. The three types are:
1. False
False contractions can happen up till the time of labour. They occur just to make the cervix ready and will not cause it to dilate. They usually stop if you change position.
2. Practice
These are also called Braxton-Hicks contractions and are experienced by some women but not all. They can occur mid-pregnancy and usually prepare you for labour.
3. Real
If your contractions continue and become more intense as the minute's pass, then they are definitely real. These contractions won't stop even if you change your activity or position. They can cause some bloody mucus to appear or pain in your lower back which can give you cramps, an upset stomach, or diarrhoea.
Real contractions will first start in your lower back and slowly move to your abdomen. It will start with a feeling of pain that you get during constipation or menstrual cramps. The pain will rise and then reduce, making your abdomen stuff. Contractions feel different to every woman but usually last for 60-90 seconds and increase in frequency as labour approaches. Closer to your delivery date, your contractions can form a pattern, telling you when you are going into labour.
Why Should You Keep a Track on Your Contractions?
Contractions are the main clue that tells you that you are ready to give birth. Even if your water has broken, you will be generally instructed to wait till your contractions form a regular, close pattern before heading to the birthing room in the hospital. Keep a track on your contractions because it will tell you which stage of labour you are at.
1. Early Labour
This is when your cervix has dilated to 3cm in diameter, and your contractions are mild (similar to menstrual cramps). Each one will last 30-45 seconds and will happen from 5-30 minutes apart.
2. Active Labour
You will have stronger contractions which will last between 45-60 seconds, 3-5 minutes apart and your cervix will dilate to 7cm. When you feel these contractions, then you have to call your doctor and leave for the hospital.
3. Transition Phase
This is the last stage of labour, and your cervix will have dilated to 10cm. Your contractions will be long and intense, each between 60-90 seconds long and 30 seconds to 2 minutes apart.
When Should You Ideally Start Timing Your Contractions?
How to know when to time contractions? Ideally, you should wait till you have two or three contractions at regular intervals. Then you’ll know that it’s the real thing and then you can start timing them. They will feel like a combination of a period and constipation, starting in your lower back and going around to your abdomen.
What Are the Methods to Keep a Track on Labour Contractions?
There are different methods of timing contractions. They are as follows:
1. Using a Timer
When you feel your stomach tightening, start the timer and stop it when the feeling subsides. Start the timer again when your next contraction starts to measure the time between each contraction.
2. Measure the Average
Calculating the time between each contraction will tell you if they are regular or the time between them is fluctuating. If you start feeling regular contractions, then you don’t need to rush to the hospital immediately. You can call your doctor, inform him and wait until your contractions become stronger to leave for the hospital. Your doctor will coach you and tell you what you should do from there.
3. Using Technology
These days, there are millions of apps available. Download a contraction timer app or install it on your computer. You can start or stop it when you feel your contractions. This works the same as a stopwatch.
How to Time Contractions in Labour
To measure uterine contractions or to count Braxton Hicks contractions, if you are not using an app, just grab a timer and a notepad and pen when you start feeling the contractions with some degree of regularity.
Note the time when a contraction begins.
Write down the time when it ends.
Calculate how long the contraction lasts by subtracting the beginning time from the end time.
Note the time the next contraction begins. Also, calculate the time between the end of one contraction and the beginning of the next one to see how far apart they are.
Continue to time each contraction if they occur regularly. If they don’t, take a break until they do again.
How Long Do Labour Contractions Last?
During labour, contractions will be about a minute each. But it is important to note not only the time but also the intensity of each contraction. Extreme strong contractions signal that the baby is coming.
At What Point Should You Head to the Hospital?
Usually, the best advice is to wait till your contractions are 5 minutes apart and occur that way regularly for an hour before you head to the hospital. Call your doctor as soon as your regular contractions begin; he can coach you from there as he would know best your risk factors and pregnancy history.
The most important thing when you feel contractions is to stay calm, take deep breaths, and start counting. Have a happy delivery!

11 Health Secrets Paediatrician Parents Want You to Know
When it comes to your child's health and fitness, no one gives better advice than their paediatrician. Their opinion is one you can completely trust. And when their paediatrician is also a parent, that's really all that you need. We have collected for you the top health secrets shared by paediatrician parents. When applied in daily life, together with your mommy instinct, these secrets will help your little one stay perfectly healthy, energetic and fit!
1. Never miss your child's vaccination schedule
If this strikes you as an odd thing to say – of course you wouldn't, right – there are people who think vaccines should be avoided as they are not safe. Way back in 1988, there was a physician called Andrew Wakefield who published a research paper in which he linked the MMR vaccine to autism. But not only was the paper proved to be false, but he was also barred from practicing!
The truth is, vaccines are completely safe and necessary to protect your child from typical childhood diseases like polio, chicken pox, diphtheria and tetanus – a fact supported by the World Health Organization. Make it a point to vaccinate your children as and when recommended by your paediatrician. Read more about why vaccination is important for your child.
2. Google is your friend, not your doctor
Would you ask any random person to diagnose your child's medical problems? No, right? But a lot of parents expect Google to play doctor. Google is good for a lot of things, but not for treating your medical problems. Although there is a lot of medical information available online, much of it is inaccurate and unverified. Trying to self-diagnose medical symptoms will only result in unnecessary fear, anxiety and stress.
If you are concerned about a health condition, make sure you talk to your paediatrician first. Remember, your doctor can help you only if you see him or her at the right time, not after the condition has worsened.
3. Understand when an injury may need to be stitched
While seeing a cut on your child's forearm can unnerve any parent, you may not always need to rush to an emergency room. Paediatricians suggest the "three-minute test" to judge the severity of the wound. If your child just had a fall or got wounded, do this: wrap ice in a towel and apply it to the cut for three minutes. The pressure and ice should stop the bleeding if the wound isn’t too severe. If your child is still bleeding, she may need a stitch.
4. Teach them the importance of hand-washing
Children often face the greatest risk of infection from dirty hands. There's a lot they do all day – playing in the mud and pooping included. Show them how to wash their hands with soap and water after they go to the bathroom, return from playing outside and before they eat. Paediatricians swear this is the easiest way to keep illness away. If you are looking for ways to teach this to your child, try our these creative hand-washing ideas. Psst, you can initially interest your child in handwashing by using scented handwash with yummy, fruity smells.
5. Choose whole fruit over fruit juice
Freshly squeezed juice seems healthy, but in reality it is only healthier than the boxed version. A whole fruit contains essential nutrients like vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibre. The juice extracted from it loses a lot of these nutrients and all of the fibre. In fact, consuming such fruit juice can increase blood sugar levels quickly. According to a study by Harvard School of Public Health, eating whole fruits such as apples, blueberries and grapes significantly lower the risk of type 2 diabetes. So whether they like it or not, make sure your child consumes fruits on a daily basis.
6. Cuddle your baby while feeding them
Do you cuddle your baby while you feed him or her? This one is a secret that many moms can vouch by! Cuddling babies makes them feel loved and secure, and helps them bond with you. Paediatricians believe that babies who are attached to their parents grow up to have a good self-esteem and strong coping skills. With benefits like these, make sure you cuddle as much as you can!
7. Understand the real risk factors for your child
Is your child eating food off the floor, playing on a swing, or throwing a violent tantrum? Well, the fact is that these things are not really as dangerous as some other things. Doctors advise you to be more careful about risks like sharp furniture, open windows and swimming pools. Baby-proofing is certainly one thing you should never take lightly!
8. No need to freak out about colds and fevers
Colds make kids cranky and uncomfortable for 7 to 10 days, but they aren't usually anything out of the ordinary. And as for fevers, even temperatures between 100 and 104° F may not be dangerous. In fact, they help the body to fight infection as they turn on the immune system. However, if your newborn baby (0 to 3 months) gets fever above 100.4 ° F, visit your paediatrician immediately. If you are not sure whether your reaction to your child's illness is accurate, take this quiz to find out.
9. Start hygiene training early
It's never too early to introduce your kids to hygiene. Paediatric parents try and set hygiene standards at home as early as they can - and this includes changing your baby's diaper without delay, bathing, brushing teeth twice a day, and wearing clean clothes. This makes it evident to your kids that cleanliness is not an option but a necessity.
10. Cut down on the baby talk
Do you talk to your baby in a made-up language commonly known as baby talk? If you think it's cute to say “wuv” instead of love, know that you are delaying their speech and language development by teaching them the wrong way to speak.
Paediatricians recommend speaking in Parentese instead. Not only do babies respond to it better, it also helps them learn to speak faster.
11. Don't rush to the doctor or the medicine bottle
Parenting is tough, but that doesn't mean you have to worry about your kids all the time. They will inevitably fall sick, hurt themselves and give you a hard time in general. Learn to let go and take it all in your stride – just like paediatrician parents do. Getting overly anxious or depending too much on medication is always a bad idea. Remember - this too shall pass.
Oh, before we close, there is yet another important secret that we would like to share. Your child's paediatrician is certain to agree with this. Mom, please take care of yourself!
Only if the parents are healthy, live a quality life and have a positive frame of mind can the children learn to follow in their footsteps. So, eat fresh, exercise, and stay happy. Read more

A. yes
whenever you give any new food to the child you have to take care of two things.
you should give in small quantity. if the child doesn't develop any digestion problem in next 24 hours to 48 hours and the child is able to digest that food then that food can be given again.
but if the child is not able to digestc or there is some problem with vomiting or loose motion or colic pain then kindly avoid that food.
we wait for 2 to 3 days to confirm whether the child is having any problem to that particular food or not
