How can I clean my baby's ear wax at home?
If your baby has moist ear wax , just use a washcloth to clean the outer ear. A q-tip can push the wax further in and risks puncturing the eardrum. If your baby has hard crusty ear wax, you can put a few drops of mineral oil in them to soften it a few times a week. I like to put the bottle in warm water to make it room temperature or a little warm but not hot. Never microwave it. Always test it against your skin to make sure it’s not hot. If you do it in the bath any that runs into their skin is a good moisturizer so no worries there. READ MORE
Can a flu shot make a baby sick?
Flu shots are not given until 6 months of age. Like any vaccine, a low grade fever is possible but any high fevers, allergic reactions or other unusual symptoms should be reported to your pediatrician. A child cannot get the flu from a flu shot. It can take a couple of weeks to give some immunity so if exposed during that time they can catch the flu. READ MORE
