    Dear Kavitha,

    Its completely your choice, generally kids who are undergoing these kind of treatments sleep well, feel hungry too! If you believe your Doc most, then do whatever she says! Its upto you to decide on it, since the kid is yours! My ammama used to give my DD Vasambu every alternate days! Its supposed to stop the kind of nausea the kids feel when they drink more milk. You can ask your mom about this too!

    Hi Kavitha,
    I have also heard about those as orai marundhu.( herbal medicine which we rub in stone and give babies). Grandmas give it to babies after bath. As Lochu said, it helps with digestion etc.
    It's purely personal choice to give it.
    Regards
    Vidyavisu

    Kavitha,
    You can rub vasambu and athimathuram in a clean stone, mix them with a drop of honey and then just apply it in the tongue of your baby. This is usually done on the day the baby takes nice oil massage and bath. But very little should be given. The baby's appetite increases and also sleeps well.
