Regurgitation is another common problem with infants where they vomit curd-like milk. This is also common unless there is blood coming out along. This problem could be due to ill-positioning. 
Diarhhoea or loose motions are also common in babies as it happens with most of the babies. If the baby is not passing urine, it is slightly concerning. If the baby is defecating multiple times a day with watery stools, take him to the doctor for checkup.

Expert Talk: Causes and Treatment of Stomach Pain in Infants

As the winter season witnesses cold temperatures, several illnesses begin to attack our bodies. Cough, cold, sinus, and many other infections start to arise but that is more challenging for newborns and infants as their immune system is still not developed to fight these infections and diseases. They are more prone to winter illnesses. Thus, it becomes parents' responsibility to take good care of them and prevent the risk of illnesses. Here are some important points explained by Dr. Rahul Nagpal, Director- Pediatrics and Neonatology at Fortis Hospital, Vasant Kunj. 
<h3>Should the baby be bathed daily?</h3> 
According to Dr. Nagpal, the idea is to keep the baby clean. If you can keep the baby clean without bathing, it is okay not to make him bathe. Sponging, using a wet cloth to clean the baby are some ways. Also, bathe the baby in mid-afternoon when the temperature is comparatively warmer. 
<h3>How to dress the baby in winters?</h3> 
Do not lade your baby with winter clothes. They may feel suffocated instead of feeling warm. Instead, you keep them close to you to provide body heat. This way, they would neither feel cold nor overloaded with clothes. Always make them wear cotton cloth inside and then woolen. Cover their hands, head and feet when you take them out.

Learn Everything About Newborn Nutrition And Feeding By Expert

Taking your preterm baby home is a daunting task. Taking care of a preterm baby, which weighs just 1-1.5 kgs can be troublesome, over the fact that babies are already so small size. 
<h2>How to take care of a preterm baby?</h2> 
The first thing is to always set in the neonatal ICU and learn how the nurses hold and take care of the baby by managing your baby yourself. Learn how to feed the baby, how the body temperature should be maintained, how the baby should be bathed among other things. Most hospitals will have sessions of the preterm babies with mother's for atleast 2 to 3 days to make sure that the baby can be looked after properly after leaving the hospital.There are three things that should be taken care of after bringing the baby home: 
<h3>1. Nutrition&nbsp;</h3> 
The baby should be fed as per the recommendation of the doctor. Breastfeeding, providing medicines, vitamins, minerals and timely provision of food to the baby must be ensured. Also look out for danger signals, such refusal to being fed, not passing urine, frequent vomiting, the skin colour of the baby turning blueish or not remaining normally pink or difficulty in breathing. 
<h3>2. Maintaining the temperature</h3> 
Second thing to take care of is maintaining the baby's body temperature by giving skin to skin contact. Make sure the room temperature is properly maintained, the normally suggested range is 24 to 28&deg;C. 
<h3>3. Don't allow outsiders&nbsp;</h3> 
Do not allow outsiders to meet the baby presently, since the immunity of the baby is relatively low and the baby is at a risk of getting an infection. Children often are the carriers of most infections, so make sure they are distant from the baby. One should stay confident and keep in touch and follow up with the doctor for taking better care of premature babies.

Diet is important for one and all. Parents need to be extra careful with what they are feeding their babies considering its nutritional value and whether or not it is safe for babies. In this video, a neonatologist talks about the ideal foods that can be given to babies. Besides, he also gave some tips to make homemade baby food with available ingredients. There are certain precautions that need to be taken while preparing baby food. Maintaining hygiene while cooking is a must as babies can catch infection very easily. Also, cook baby food with steel and metal utensils. Feed only fresh food to your baby. Ideally, you must feed the baby freshly-cooked food within 20 minutes of preparation. Babies should be fed food that the family members are eating, there are no specific guidelines. However, baby food should be high in carbohydrates, protein, fat and other essential nutrients.
