Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi,

Firstly, I would like to know dietary routine of your baby such as type of feed, volume and frequency of feed. Is your baby lethargic? How many times your baby passes urine or gets wet diapers and what is the current weight?

Fruit juices are not recommended at his age. In would suggest using milk in diet and preferably breast milk. ORS (oral rehydration solution) is also important to cover the loss of electrolyte and water. In my opinion, Nestum rice should not be used in a 3.5 month old baby rather you can start it at 6 month of life.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ammara Kaleem, Pediatrician
