This information is very much sought for nursing mothers to keep away from plastics during pregnancy. Low birth weight may case many other problems too.
My Grand daughter is low birth weight. she was kept in ICU for 10 days.
Now she is 11 months old. Since the age of 7th month she is not putting weight and is below below percentile average wight too. Doctor suspected TB at 9th month. then drugs were used. she is picking up weight now. What could be the cause of TB. No one in the vicinity had TB. But the baby is playing with plastic toys and woolen, fur toys. Is this could be the reason? you can analyze and notify me. whether I am correct or not.
