Quando un medico sceglie di farlo per
Vocazione lo si percepisce immediatamente e il professore è senza dubbio uno di quelli. Preciso, estremamente competente, chiarissimo nelle spiegazioni, capace di mettere immediatamente il bambino a suo agio. Ottimo anche il servizio di segreteria, encomiabile organizzazione e gentilezza nella gestione dei pazienti.

Sono necessari i medicinali anti meteorismo prima dell'ecografia addome completo

Gentili dottori, vi scrivo in merito al fatto che mio figlio di 7 mesi, in piena fase di svezzamento, la notte si sveglia più volte, e, facendo noi lavori con turni, ne risentiamo durante il giorno. Premetto che lui non piange, anzi, sembra piu un capriccio il suo, stavamo pensando, con mia moglie, di dare lui, dopo la cena solida( la mattina latte, pranzo e cena solidi, merenda yogurt o frutta) e circa 2 ore e mezza di distanza, un po di latte artificiale, magari un 100/120 ml, con la speranza che magari questo sia per lui sia un surplus che lo sazia, sia un rito propiziatorio alla nanna notturna. L'unica nostra paura è che dopo cena possa fargli male. Ringrazio in anticipo per le risposte.

Lo svezzamento è una fase importante per il lattante e vi consiglio di chiedere sempre al vostro pediatra. L'aggiunta di latte la sera dipende dalla crescita e non sempre è necessaria,
