I'm really worried about my 1-year-9-month-old who's been showing signs of pneumonia. The doctor already gave her a dose of nebulization and some antibiotics, but she's still in pain and having trouble breathing. Is it okay if I give her a second dose of nebulization after four hours?

I'm really worried because my 2-year-old just swallowed an apricot seed. I've heard from someone that giving him bananas and sabudana kheer might help. Is that true, and is there anything else I should be doing right now? What's the best way to handle this?

If your baby has swallowed an apricot seed, it's important to stay calm. Monitor for any signs of discomfort, choking, or difficulty breathing. Feeding bananas or sabudana kheer may help soften the stool, but if there are any concerns or signs of distress, please seek immediate medical attention.

I've been using a nebulizer for him and I remember his doctor once mentioned that it's okay to nebulize him every half hour if things get severe. I'm just worried though, is it really safe to do that or are there potential side effects I should be aware of? His father's side of the family does have a history of asthma.
