Gone are the days when an average household was content with a landline number, which was capable of serving the interests of the whole family.

I had had a chronic paranoid schizophrenia and multiple psychiatric hospitalisations. With the proper and regular medication, and better understanding of the dear ones I could emerge out of it successfully.

I suffered from a severe typhoid fever while I was in the third month of my pregnancy. I was admitted to the hospital and was given inter venous antibiotics. The maximum temperature I got was 103. I was discharged from the hospital after two nights. I felt I recovered but it hit again after 20 days and lasted for a week, again I was put under IV and recovered well. Since then my pregnancy has been gone smooth going and I am 33 weeks now. I am absolutely fine but wish to know whether typhoid fever will have any effect on my baby?
It is usually the high fever, which has harmful effect on the foetus. Since your foetus has grown well to 33 weeks at this time, it looks like typhoid fever did not have any detrimental effect on the foetus. Your serial ultrasound scans & blood tests will further confirm that all is well with the foetus.
I am 33 years old mother and still feeding my 18 months old baby. I can clearly see the difference in my breasts size. One is slightly bigger than the other. Is it normal? Advise me to bring it back to the normal size.
It is normal to have minor variation in the breast size especially while feeding. You need not do anything to bring it back to normal. There is a possibility that the size may return to normal after you stop lactation.
