8101930 tn?1420001456 My son is 2 months and just received his first shots yesterday including the rotavirus vaccine. I noticed that after his shots and today he has been pooping yellow colored like normal but it is very chunky. He is exclusively breast fed and always has a little bit of a seedy stool but this is very chunky. I'm Just curious if anyone knows if this is normal or not. Could it be from the rotavirus vaccine because they do ingest it. Thanks.
Avatar f tn At 12 months, she began to fall of her growth curve. Shortly after her first birthday, she got rotavirus and became severely dehydrated. After 4 trips to the ER (they thought I only wanted a cure for the stomach flu), she was admitted for 5 days and closely monitored. She was 17.5 lbs at her 1 year check up, she lost 1 1/2 lbs from rotavirus at admittance and upon discharge she weighed 18 lbs. A pediatrician who is a specialist thought she had celiac disease but testing came back negative.

1042487 tn?1275279899 Everybody knows about Vitamin D and that we get it from sun. Did you actually know Vitamin D is in fact a prohormone by itself and in is active form it is a steroid hormone? Vitamin D was misnamed when it was first discovered hundreds of years ago, before we knew where it came from or how it was made. By definition, it is not a vitamin because vitamins are not produced endogenously they must be obtained exogenously from dietary food source.
Avatar f tn Do I really need sheet savers for my baby's crib? I mean theyre inly like 10 dollars but if I dont need it I dont really want it? I have a waterproof mattress pad is that good enough?
Avatar n tn ve been through these with my 2 1/2 year old and some of them can take a very long time to clear. One that pops into mind is rotavirus. Fevers do not necessarily always accompany a virus. He should see a Dr. Also, make sure he is staying well hydrated. Food is less important then fluids. Juices, pedialight, even milk. Dehydration is always the biggest concern. Is he energetic or listless? That too can tell you alot. If he is listless and weak, then he should be seen right away.
Avatar m tn I noticed a wet spot on the sheet about one inch to inch and a half in diameter on the sheet located over my penis shaft. The head of my penis was never close to her vagina. In fact, there was no skin to skin contact of our genitals at all. I am worried that the red irritated skin might have been compromised if she was HIV positive. I did not have any open cuts or sores that i can remember. Is there any risk here? Should i get tested?
Avatar f tn s one poke on the foot then they usually do a hepatitis B shot then roughly ever 2 months the baby gets Dtap,Hib ,Polio,Pneumococcal, Rotavirus (hope i spelled them all right)but they can mix some together usually 2 pokes with the needle the babies get over it so fast
Avatar f tn So if you have a type that is viral such as one caused by norovirus or rotavirus you could have a contagious type or a bacterial one like Clostridium difficile, Salmonella or Shigella pr Ecoli that has a toxin (not all strains have it). So you need to find out which one by having the doctor do some lab tests or telling you which one you have. The main thing is washing your hands well after using the toilet.

Avatar n tn I have a daughter and while she was never in the room while we had inter course im still afraid she could have come into contact with fluids after the fact on my sheets or linens before they were washed. Is hepatitis b transmitted that way? She has been vaccinated but I do not know if she had all of her shots at that time or not... Please help I am terrified she is my whole world.
Avatar n tn I accidentally placed my hand on a plastic sheet that had been spread over the bed used by the patient. There was no visible blood or fluid on the sheet, but i got extremely worried. Especially so since i had a four-day old small (less than 1 cm long) cut on my index finger. I washed my hands with soap and water and spirit. I explained the situation to two of my professors in Medicine, but they were of the opinion that the cut had healed, and post-exposure prophylaxis was not warranted.
Avatar f tn I just read some cool crazy facts about pregnancy. The craziest was the longest pregnancy on record took 375 days. And the baby was a healthy 7 pounds.
