Child Health

Stress and anxiety lead to rapid breathing, and when the level of carbon dioxide in the blood is reduced, it can lead to dizziness and further panic. Any underlying cause should be treated, and doctors may recommend psychological therapy and/or breathing training if this persists. (see related link)

Hmm... neva heard about it... It won't make her hair fall out, but it will help the lice breathe a bit easier!

At the age of 10 years old, I was a few inches taller than four feet. At the time, I was about 62 pounds. I ate, but I was very slim.

It depends on the height and lifestyle of the child/girl. It also depends on the size of the parents.

I Say Please Eat Some More Its Not Right

I say that 103 pounds for an 11 yr old that's 4'9" is a little too much for that height and weight , I'm 11 years old and 4'9" but, i weigh about 93 pounds it depends though

My best friend weighs 103 punds and she is 5'2. She isn't very fat at all. I am 88 pounds and the averae weight is 77-103. so you've just made the cut<3

Kids usually try smoking out of curiosity, or because people close to them smoke -- friends, brothers or sisters, parents. Kids can also be influenced to try smoking if people they admire, like sports heroes, movie stars, and singers smoke, and they can be influenced by ads that make smoking look glamorous and fun. Eventually, if they try it often enought to get the hang of it, they find that the nicotine in cigarettes makes them feel good, and they start to smoke for pleasure or to avoid feeling tense. Eventually, they may become addicted to the nicotine, which means they feel bad if they don't smoke. Many grownups stop because they're afraid of the diseases you can get if you smoke for many years, but kids, who are too young to be worried about the diseases, keep starting, so there's a new supply of smokers!

YES! Liver is a great first meat to introduce to your baby. My son started solids around 5 months and I made pureed meat for him close to 6 months. Liver is very high in iron, protein, and vitamins A & B. I sauteed calf liver pieces with onions and carrots, pureed in a blender with some breast milk and then mixed with a mashed potato. Super baby food!

Well, right now at the moment i have a splint thingy on my wrist. I just recently got my cast off maybe 2 weeks ago. My wrist was broken really badly, 2 bones were broken, it broke right at my growth plate, and on top of that it broke at a slanted angle. So, since I'm still growing, my doctor wanted my bones to be aligned and stay aligned perfectly so my wrist would grow the way it was supposed to. I almost had to have pins put into my wrist, and the day i went in to have the surgery to put the pins in, they changed their mind at the last minute and decided to just replace my cast. I had to stay off of school for probably about 2 weeks, maybe a little bit more, because my doctor & dad didn't want my bone to move. See, since my bone was broken in a slant, it slid out of place VERY easily. The day i went to the ER, when i first broke it, they had to replace my cast 3 times because my bone kept sliding/moving. SO, my answer to your question is, i couldn't move MY broken wrist, so you probably shouldn't either.

A baby sleeps for as long as it need's to! first, consider the age of the baby, first born usually sleep more than they are awake. again, the age has much to do with this question, so it's hard to narrow a correct answer, and there are so many other issues that could effect a babies sleep pattern. have a nice day~....

You don't know when they are a baby unless the baby is taken to the doctor for an examination. Without a doctor's visit, you would just compare the child to others in school as they get older and in the higher grade levels.

It weighs about 1lb and is about 10.5 inches/27 centimetres long

There is no ideal weight for a 13-year-old boy. Weight is related to height and body composition rather than age. Please feel free to ask the question again and include more detail. Alternatively, for in-depth information about weight in relation to height, and to see the distribution of weights and heights of children at various ages, please see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

It depends on the height of the girl. Here is a link to a website where you can calculate your BMI for free: http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/

It's important to speak to your doctor if you are concerned that you may be overweight. More than your outward appearance as a concern, your inner health should be of great concern as well. Being overweight can take its' toll on your heart, lungs, liver, brain, eyes, kidneys and your bones. It can even affect reproduction and your menstrual cycles.

130 pounds isn't overweight when your height and other physical health factors come into play. Please speak with your physician if this is a concern.

Can't imagine that you would be overweight, in any way. If you want to tighten up your muscles, then exercise would help. Walking, biking, swimming, pilates or yoga are good places to start.

As far as I know, I am pretty sure that pre teens and teens need about 10-12 hours every night.

Any bad bump should be checked out by your doctor or even a clinic. Concusion can occur or even blood clots (not trying to scare you) and unless your son is complaining of dizziness, feeling sick to his stomach then he's probably fine. To put your own mind at rest please see the doctor. Good luck Marcy Yes, check it out. My daughter has a bump on her head on her corner of her forhead, and it mishaped her head. The Dr. just says its calcium buildup and she can get it 'shaved' off later. What a joke. This was an accident at the pool, a kid pushed her into the cement side of the pool. Over the years, this thing grew. I would have sued if I would have known better so she CAN afford to get it 'shaved', gruesome. Ridiculous, and caused my daughter nothing but grief over her childhood. VW

usually the amount of calories most people should have is 1200. but here is the simplest way to find your basic daily calorie needs: Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) = 24 x Weight (lb)/2.2 OR Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) = 24 x Weight (kg) The BMR is then multiplied by a number representing the individuals activity level: Sedentary BMR x 1.45

Light BMR x 1.60

Medium BMR x 1.70

Heavy BMR x 1.88 So for example if you weigh 125 pounds and hit the aerobic studio 3 times per week your daily caloric requirements would be: 1.70 x (24 x 125/2.2) = 1.70 x 1363.63 = 2318

Generally, eating more than this number of calories increases weight and less than this number allows weight reduction. However, BMR does not take into account extremes of activity or inactivity. Therefore, BMR should be used as an approximation.

You can make your butt bigger by doing exercises that target your gluteal muscles. If that fails to give the results you desire, buttock implants can be added by a cosmetic surgeon.

The development that comes after childhood is adolence.

18 - 24 months is an appropriate age for kids to begin potty training. You can tell if your child is ready if they have regular bowel movements, can follow instructions, stay dry for at least 2 hours, or feel uncomfortable in a diaper and asking for underwear.
