Breast milk is the most beneficial for infant health because it contains many nutrients that boost immunity. Breast milk contains an antibody that protects the infant from any form of infection.

Avoid daycare centre

There are many children in the daycare centre and because of this, there is no excessive cleaning due to which there are the high amount of bacteria that enter your baby’s ear and cause infections.

Do not keep the baby in a smoking zone

Tobacco present in cigarettes paralyzes the hair, which keeps the ear tube clean. It increases the production of fluid and mucus in the ear.

Do not drink milk on the backside

Compared to breasts, the flow of milk is increased when you feed on the bottle, which increases the likelihood of the milk going into the baby’s Eustachian tube. Along with this, when you feed milk to babies while laying on the back, then milk can go to Nasal Cavity too. Because of which the baby’s ear may have an infection. To protect the child from having an infection in the ear, feed them milk while keeping them in lap.

Due to infection in the baby’s ear, they feel pain, so follow some tips to get rid of this problem.
