How to calm a baby that has a habit of crying at night?
Hello doctor,
My baby is 35-days-old and has gained weight compared to his weight at birth. My baby cries at night, and he needs milk. I feed him from 8 pm to 10 am.

Can an ear infection cause disturbed sleep in a two-year-old child?
Hi doctor,
My 2-year-old son has been battling an ear infection for a couple of weeks now. It is finally better, but now I believe something is going on with his adenoids, or he has sleep apnea. He stops breathing while he sleeps at night, jumps in his sleep, constantly moves, and hardly sleeps because of it. He also snores very loudly and breathes out of his mouth. However, he is not stuffy, and his pediatrician said his lungs sound perfect. Also, during the day, he is more fussy than normal, wants to be held a lot, and is tired and weak-eyed. We ran a humidifier at night, and he had tubes placed in his ears.
