Where I found my identity, we’re building our dreams, and our children are growing roots. 🌸 With every Bathukamma, a little more TELANGANA BIDDA at heart. Forever grateful to belong. 🤍

Dance practice, rehearsals, costume chats… the little girl in me is back! 💃🏻🥹 Didn’t realise how much I missed this. My happiest form of self-care this Navratri 🤍 Performing this Sunday—can’t wait to share more!

Those tricky dinosaur names, endless questions and little facts they tell you with so much pride 🦖❤️ There’s so much joy in knowing something well. Let them teach you a thing or two! What is your child currently obsessed with? 👇

A few years in Hyderabad, and Bathukamma feels more special with every passing year! 🌸 This Navratri, may we all find our inner strength, fight our own battles, discover our own light, and above all, find ourselves. ❤️ Happy Bathukamma & Navratri! 🌼 #bathukamma2026

We think we’re raising them, teaching them, taking care of them… but somewhere along the way, they’re raising us too. 🤍 Teaching us to slow down, love deeper, laugh louder and see life differently. Maybe I take care of Aadya & Ivaan… but in so many little ways, they take care of me too. 🥹❤️

Frequently asked questions lately 🤍 1. Where am I consulting now? 📍 Cloudnine Hospital, Nallagandla 🕘 9 AM–2 PM | Monday–Saturday 2. How do I book an appointment? Through the Cloudnine website or simply click the link in my bio. 3. Do I work on Sundays? No 😊 Sundays are my days off. 4. What happened to Cherish Children’s Clinic? Cherish is now closed, and consultations are no longer happening there. 5. Why did I close Cherish? A recent relocation, changing family priorities and simply wanting a little more mental space. With my daughter now in high school, this phase of life needed me to rearrange a few things. 🤍 Will Cherish come back someday? I honestly don’t know yet. For now, I’m very happy where I am. 😊 Do I take online consultations? Yes, on a limited basis. My schedule is a little packed right now, but you can DM me here or message the contact number in my bio and we can find a suitable slot. And if you’d like to consult me in person, you know where to find me now! 🤍 Cloudnine Nallagandla | 9 AM–2 PM | Monday–Saturday

From handwritten prescriptions to digital ones — a transition I never really wanted, but here we are! 😭😂 Newfound respect for all you IT folks who work on laptops and type away all day. HOW do you do it? 🫡

After seeing me attend the Ganesh puja every evening, a couple of people asked me out of genuine curiosity — “Doctor, how come you’re not at work?” And it made me wonder… why does seeing a doctor enjoying an evening feel unusual? It took me years of hard work to reach a place where I could finally say — these are the hours I choose to work, and the rest of my time belongs to my children, my family and myself. Doctors deserve a work-life balance too. And sometimes, we have to consciously choose it. 🤍

Parents, why are we so obsessed with our baby’s weight? 😄⚖️ Your baby’s growth is important—but that doesn’t mean you need to keep checking their weight at home every few days. During the first year, there are plenty of opportunities to monitor growth at regular pediatric visits and vaccinations. And remember, we don’t look at just one number on the scale—we look at the growth trend, length, head circumference, feeding, development and overall health. Unless your pediatrician has specifically advised frequent weight monitoring, don’t let the weighing scale add unnecessary stress to this beautiful phase. ❤️ Feed them, watch them grow, celebrate their milestones and enjoy your baby. Leave the growth chart to us! 👶🏻❤️ #1minwithdrjyo #drjyothirmayi #pediatricianhyderabad

Some beautiful chapters are meant to end—not because they weren’t good enough, but because they have served their purpose. ❤️ Cherish gave me an identity of my own. It was a space that saw thousands of tiny footsteps, worried parents, recoveries, laughter, tears, and so many children who simply never wanted to leave. It became so much more than a clinic—it became a part of me. But as my little patients grew, so did what I wanted to offer them. They needed me to care for them with better facilities, stronger support, and everything they might need under one roof. I know there are many parents—and many of my little ones—who still miss Cherish. Some miss the familiarity, some the warmth of the space, and some simply wish I were still closer to home. And every time you tell me that, I realise how deeply this little place was loved. ❤️ I miss parts of it too. But perhaps growth sometimes asks us to step outside what is familiar and comfortable, even when that comfort is beautiful. So Cherish, as a space, may have completed its journey. But what it stood for hasn’t. Everything it gave me, everything it taught me, and every little family that became a part of its story comes with me into this next chapter. To every parent who trusted me, and every little one who filled these rooms with life—thank you. Cherish will forever be cherished—by me, and I hope, by all the little hearts and families that once called it their own. ❤️ And maybe this isn’t really the end of Cherish at all. Maybe it simply needed a little more room to grow. Who knows what it might become someday? :)

This picture says so much — a dream, years of work, endless belief, and the man behind it all. Happy Birthday to my favourite visionary. ❤️ @phalguna #happybirthdaylove

Your baby doesn't need to love every food on the first try. Starting solids is more than introducing nutrition. For a baby, every new food is a sensory experience and learning a new skill. Taste, texture, smell, temperature and even the way food is offered can shape how they experience food. In Episode 4 of The Parent Lab: Mastering Your Baby’s First Foods, host @KritiVij speaks with Dr. Jyothirmayi, Consultant Pediatrician and Founder of Cherish Children's Clinic, Hyderabad, about picky eating, introducing variety, repetition without pressure, texture progression and the realities of feeding in a busy household. Because mastering your baby's first foods is about giving them the time, space and opportunities to learn. Catch Episode 4 of The Parent Lab now.

Kinda chic to pause and look back sometimes… 🤍 Not to see how far you still have to go, but to realise how far you’ve already come. A little self-reflection, a little gratitude, and maybe… a little “damn, I did that.” ✨

Breastfeeding takes extra energy and nutrients — not just for your baby, but for you too! 🤱💛 A balanced diet with enough protein, healthy fats, calcium, iron and other essential nutrients helps support a mother’s nutritional needs during breastfeeding. Here are 5 simple foods/food groups worth including regularly: 🥚 Eggs — or dal, beans/tofu for vegetarians 🥛 Milk, curd or paneer 🥬 Green leafy vegetables 🌾 Whole grains & millets 🥜 Nuts & seeds 💧 Plus, stay well hydrated! And remember — there is no single “magic food” that increases breast milk. Frequent and effective breastfeeding is the most important driver of milk production. 🤍 #Breastfeeding #BreastfeedingMom #BreastfeedingNutrition #drjyothirmayi #1minwithdrjyo

Some questions may seem harmless… but to a new breastfeeding mother, they can create self-doubt when she needs support the most. 💛 This World Breastfeeding Week, let’s change the way we speak to new moms. Instead of questioning her… ✨ Encourage her. ✨ Listen to her. ✨ Ask how she is doing. ✨ Offer help before advice. Sometimes, the kindest words can make the biggest difference in a mother’s breastfeeding journey. Because behind every thriving baby is a mother who deserves kindness, confidence, and support. 🤍 Which of these questions have you heard the most? Share your experience in the comments. 👇 #worldbreastfeedingweek2026 #sustainingbreastfeedingtogether #1minwithdrjyo #drjyothirmayi

If you’ve been thinking about getting a colour analysis, I highly recommend @stylecuesbyanugna 🤍 I genuinely believed all colours and prints suited me… until this session! I was amazed at how much the right colours and styles can elevate your overall look. As someone who’s always busy (and honestly not a fan of shopping 😄), having someone who understands what truly suits me made all the difference. For the first time, I shopped with confidence, explored stores without feeling overwhelmed, and actually enjoyed the experience. This wasn’t just about colours—it was about understanding what works for me and making future shopping so much easier. Looking forward to many more shopping days with you, @stylecuesbyanugna ✨

Day One at Cloudnine Hospitals, Nallagandla. A new place, a new journey, and the same purpose—to care for every child with compassion. ☁️ Every new beginning feels more special with the one who has stood beside me through every decision, doubt and dream. ♥️ @phalguna Having my daughter beside me on this special day made this new beginning even more meaningful. My lucky charm & little cheerleader, always. 🤍 Grateful for the warmest welcome from my new Cloudnine family. Looking forward to growing, learning and caring together. 💐

A new beginning. A new location. A new journey. 🤍 I’m happy to share that I have officially joined Cloudnine Hospitals, Nallagandla, today as a Consultant Pediatrician. My regular OP consultations will begin from tomorrow, 11 July, and I will be available from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. To all the wonderful parents and little ones who have trusted me over the years, I look forward to continuing to care for you at Cloudnine, Nallagandla. I’m also excited to meet many new mothers, families and children as I begin this new chapter. Change is the only constant in life, and I’m stepping into this Cloudnine journey with gratitude, hope and excitement. ✨ Looking forward to seeing you there! 🤍 Dr. Jyo 💕

Your baby’s skin is more sensitive than you think. If you’re noticing morning wetness or early signs of irritation it’s not something to ignore. The right diaper doesn’t just absorb, it protects. Choose one that keeps wetness locked away and cares for your baby’s skin overnight and beyond. #BabyCare #DiaperCare #NewMomTips #HealthySkin

Your baby didn’t poop today? Or pooping after every feed? 👉 BOTH can be normal in exclusively breastfed babies Breast milk is so well digested that: ✔ Some babies poop after every feed ✔ Some may not poop for a few days ⚠️ Don’t panic… watch the baby, not just the diaper. When to worry: * Poor feeding * Excess crying * Vomiting * Hard stools / blood in stool * Poor weight gain Save this — every new parent needs this reassurance 🤍 #babypoop #1minwithdrjyo #drjyothirmayi #cherishchildrensclinic

Your baby was finally sleeping well… and suddenly started waking up again? 😴 If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many parents feel something is wrong when sleep suddenly changes — but in most cases, this is completely normal. In the first year, babies grow and develop rapidly, and sleep disturbances often happen during phases like: • Growth spurts • Sleep regressions (around 4 months, 8–10 months) • Teething • Learning new skills like rolling or crawling 👉 Your baby hasn’t “forgotten” how to sleep. 👉 This is usually a temporary phase. What helps: ✔ Maintain a consistent bedtime routine ✔ Avoid overstimulation before sleep ✔ Follow your baby’s cues #babysleep #1minwithdrjyo #sleepregression #drjyothirmayi #cherishchildrensclinic

Is your child’s weight normal? 🤔 This is one of the most common questions I hear in my clinic every single day. Here’s a simple rule every parent should know 👇 ✔️ Birth weight: 2.5–3.5 kg ✔️ 1 year: ~9–10 kg ✔️ After that: +2 kg per year So roughly: 2 yrs – 12 kg 3 yrs – 14 kg 4 yrs – 16 kg 5 yrs – 18 kg 👉 But remember, every child is different. What matters most is consistent growth, not just one number. If you’re worried about your child’s weight, don’t guess — consult your pediatrician 🤍 #childgrowth #1minwithdrjyo #drjyothirmayi #cherishchildrensclinic

Milk and bread improve breast milk production — Myth ❌ One of the most common things I hear from new mothers, especially in India… But here’s the truth 👇 Breast milk production does NOT increase just because you drink milk or eat bread. Your milk supply mainly depends on: ✔️ Frequent feeding / demand from the baby ✔️ Adequate overall food intake ✔️ Good protein consumption ✔️ Staying well hydrated Yes, drinking fluids is important. Yes, eating well matters. But milk and bread by themselves do NOT increase breast milk production. So instead of focusing on one particular food, focus on overall nutrition and regular feeding. 🤍 — If you’re a new mom and have heard this before, you’re not alone 🤗 Drop your doubts in the comments ✨ #mythbusterswithdrjyo #BreastfeedingMyths #drjyothirmayi #cherishchildrensclinic

Do you have a 3-month-old baby? This stage is what we call the Awakening Phase… 🤍 At this age, your baby begins transitioning from reflex-driven behavior… to purposeful responses. You may notice: ✨ A social smile in response to faces ✨ Cooing and early vocal interactions ✨ Visual tracking of people and objects ✨ Improved head control ✨ Pushing up on forearms during tummy time ✨ Hands coming to the mouth These are important developmental milestones that indicate healthy neurological and motor progression. More importantly, this is when your baby begins to actively engage and connect with you. Enjoy this phase — because early bonding and interaction play a crucial role in overall development. #1minwithdrjyo #cherishchildrensclinic #drjyothirmayi #babymilestone

Fixing a recipe gone wrong in the kitchen made me realise something… Most things in life aren’t unfixable — we just need the patience to pause, adjust, and try again. ✨ If we truly want to, we can fix almost anything.

When do babies start responding to their name? 🤍 One of the most common things parents are curious about! You can start calling your baby by their name from around 4–6 months, they begin to recognize it by 6–9 months, and respond more consistently by 9–12 months. Every baby develops at their own pace—but knowing what to expect helps you feel more confident as a parent ✨ If you notice no response at all by 9–12 months, it’s always better to check early. Save this for later & share with a new parent 🤍 #namecallresponse #childdevelopment #1minwithdrjyo #cherishchildrensclinic #drjyothirmayi

Honoured. Grateful. Humbled. ✨ To receive the Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam Women Empowerment Excellence Award in Pediatric Healthcare is truly special and deeply meaningful to me. But what matters even more is the trust so many parents place in me every single day—with their little ones 🤍 I couldn’t be there to receive this in person… because that day, I had promised my son I’d take him to a birthday party. And I chose to show up for that. Because beyond being a doctor, I’m a mom first. And somewhere between dreams and duties… I’m learning to balance both. 🌸 To every parent who believes in me—this is yours as much as mine💕

Not every struggle shows up as fever. Sometimes it shows up as mood swings, anger, silence, or “I don’t want to go.” Comparison, screens, overscheduling, and constant stress quietly affect our children’s mental health.

“Doctor, I never had acne before… why am I getting pimples after delivery?” If this sounds like you, please know, you’re not alone. Comment "Link" to get the link in your DM 🔗 Postpartum acne is very common. After delivery, hormones shift rapidly, sleep becomes irregular, stress increases, and your body is still healing. Even women who’ve never had acne before can suddenly experience breakouts. In this phase, skincare should be simple, gentle, and safe, especially during breastfeeding. Choosing the right cleanser can make a real difference. Look for ingredients that target acne without being harsh, and always avoid applying products near the breast area. When in doubt, consult your doctor. Motherhood is already overwhelming. Your skincare doesn’t need to be. Keep it minimal. Keep it mindful. 🤍 @thedermacoindia #AD [postpartum acne, new mom skincare, acne after delivery, hormonal acne, breastfeeding safe skincare, salicylic acid cleanser, niacinamide benefits, gentle face wash, dermatologist recommended, acne treatment for moms, postpartum skin changes, minimal skincare routine, safe skincare for mothers, oily skin after pregnancy, acne marks, sensitive skin care, motherhood recovery, simple skincare routine, women’s health, mom life]

This is one of the most common pregnancy beliefs I hear from moms and grandmothers alike. Myth - An itchy belly does not mean your baby will have more hair. What’s really happening? During pregnancy, your skin stretches rapidly and hormones change. This can dry out the skin and cause itching, especially over the tummy. What actually decides your baby’s hair? Genetics. Hair growth depends on family genes, not belly itching. Quick tips if your belly feels itchy: • Moisturise regularly • Avoid very hot showers • Wear soft, breathable clothing • Tell your doctor if itching becomes severe or widespread Old stories are fun to hear, but when it comes to your body and your baby, science gives the real answers.

Many parents ask me how to give nuts safely to children, and almonds are a great example. Soaking almonds overnight isn’t just an old tradition. It actually improves digestion and nutrient absorption, especially for young tummies. When almonds are soaked: • Tannins and phytic acid reduce • The skin peels off easily • Iron, calcium, and healthy fats are absorbed better • They become gentler on the gut For toddlers and young children, soaked & peeled almonds are easier to digest and less likely to cause tummy discomfort. Raw almonds, on the other hand, can be harder for small digestive systems to handle, especially if given regularly or in larger amounts. How to offer almonds safely to kids: • Always soak overnight (8–10 hours) • Peel the skin • Grind, powder, or make a smooth paste • Never give whole nuts to young children (choking risk) Small changes like this can make a big difference to your child’s nutrition. How do you usually give almonds to your child, soaked, powdered, or mixed into food? 👇 [child nutrition, toddler diet, soaked almonds, kids digestion, pediatric nutrition, healthy fats for kids, brain development food, almonds for children, weaning foods, toddler meal ideas, gut health kids, nutrient absorption, Indian parenting tips, baby food safety, pediatric advice, healthy snacks for kids, child gut health, immunity foods, early nutrition, mindful feeding]

As children grow, especially once they start school or daycare, their bodies meet new germs every day. Most recover quickly and return to being active, playful, and well. That’s usually reassuring.

“Is this normal for my child’s age?” If you’ve asked this even once, you’re not alone. From toddler years to pre-teens, children change emotionally, socially, and behaviourally, often faster than we expect. Big emotions, mood swings after school, sudden need for privacy, strong opinions, or confidence dips… many of these are age-appropriate, not red flags. What matters most isn’t perfection, but patterns. Children grow in phases, not straight lines. And reassurance, consistency, and understanding go a long way in helping them feel safe as they grow. If something feels confusing or overwhelming, it’s always okay to ask.

When I explained about using ear buds for children, one mother was genuinely shocked. And honestly, her reaction is very common. Many parents use ear buds to clean their child’s ears, thinking it’s safe and hygienic. But what we don’t realize is that the ear canal is delicate, especially in children. Ear buds often push the wax deeper inside instead of removing it. This can lead to ear blockage, pain, infections, reduced hearing, and sometimes even injury to the ear drum. Ear wax is not dirt. It actually protects the ear from dust, bacteria, and insects. Most of the time, the ear cleans itself naturally. Cleaning inside the ear with ear buds is usually unnecessary and risky. As parents, the safer approach is simple. Clean only the outer part of the ear with a soft cloth after a bath. If your child complains of ear pain, reduced hearing, or frequent itching, it’s better to consult a pediatrician or ENT specialist instead of trying home methods. Sometimes, doing less is the best care we can give our children.

Puberty doesn’t happen overnight it begins quietly, with small changes parents often notice first. Voice cracks, sudden height spurts, oily skin, and growing emotions are all part of a normal, healthy transition from childhood to adolescence. Understanding these signs early helps parents respond with reassurance, patience, and the right guidance , because this phase needs support, not fear. 🤍 If you have questions about your child’s development, growth, or puberty timeline, don’t hesitate to talk to a pediatrician.

Parents… I’m serious 😅 When you bring your child for vaccination, please make sure your little boy is wearing underwear too 🙈😭😂 Kids can pee suddenly, and with boys it can go anywhere!

Many parents ask this question — when should a girl start wearing a bra? There is no fixed age. It’s about body development, comfort, and confidence — not numbers. Some girls feel comfortable with a camisole at first. Some prefer a soft sports bra when changes begin. Later, a well-fitting regular bra makes sense. Every child grows at her own pace, and that is completely normal 🤍 Guide gently. No pressure.

Early puberty is becoming more common, and everyday products at home could be one of the hidden reasons. From soaps and shampoos to plastics, small choices can impact a child’s hormones and growth. Simple, mindful changes today can support healthier growth tomorrow. Always reach out to your pediatrician when in doubt.

Part 2 is here 👶✨ Sharing a few more baby products that parents often ask me about, what actually helps, what’s worth skipping, and what to use mindfully. Remember, the best product is the one that suits your baby, not trends or recommendations on the internet.

As a pediatrician and a mom, I look beyond products and look into what truly supports a baby’s development. In this video, I break down three common baby products, what helps, what doesn’t, and what parents should really know. Sometimes, doing less is actually doing. Part 2 is coming.

Honey feels natural, healthy, and harmless, but for babies below 1 year, it isn’t safe. Honey can carry spores that a baby’s immature gut cannot handle, and that risk is real, even in small amounts. Until your baby turns one, skip honey completely, their body simply isn’t ready yet. There are many safer, age-appropriate foods to nourish your baby. Timing matters just as much as nutrition.

We make so many New Year resolutions - weight, work, vacations. But I’ve never intentionally made them as a mom. This year, I’m choosing to be more mindful about the kind of days, moments, and memories I want for my children. Sharing mine here. Tell me, what are you hoping for as a mom this year?

Parents in 2026, a gentle reminder 🤍 Wellness checks are where real prevention begins. They help us guide feeding, track development, prepare for school, and support your child through growth and puberty quietly, consistently, and on time. These visits are not optional. They are how we protect growth, confidence, and long-term health. Because caring early is how we truly cherish a child’s life 💙 [child wellness, wellness checks, preventive care, child development, baby milestones, toddler health, school readiness, puberty awareness, child growth, parenting guidance, healthy childhood, pediatric care, early intervention, parent education, baby care tips, child health matters, doctor advice, modern parenting, raising healthy kids]

Traditional baby showers aren’t just rituals, they’re moments of care, connection, and community. When done mindfully, these celebrations can be emotionally comforting for the mother, reduce stress, and surround her with love and support, all of which indirectly benefits the baby too.

When digestion is happy, appetite improves. When meals are balanced, immunity follows. And when food feels familiar, children eat better. Sometimes, it’s not about adding more, it’s about trusting what our homes have always known. Save this for everyday meal ideas that actually work.

Many parents ask — when is the best time to show a newborn to sunlight? Early morning sunlight, between 7 to 9 AM, is ideal. Direct sunlight is not needed. Soft, indirect sunlight near a window for 10–15 minutes is enough. Avoid harsh afternoon sun and heat for babies. 👶☀️ [1minwithdrjyo, DocMomJyo, sunlight for babies, vitamin D for kids ]

Applying moisturizer but still feeling dry this winter? It might not be your skin, it could be the product. Lotions are light and water-based, perfect for summers. Winters need creams, thicker, oil-based, and better at locking in moisture. If dryness isn’t improving, it’s time to switch smart. Creams work way better than lotions in cold months. Save this for winter skincare.

కొత్తగా పుట్టిన బిడ్డను ముద్దు పెట్టుకోవాలనిపించడం సహజం ❤️ కానీ ఈ చిన్న వయసులో వారి ఇమ్యూనిటీ ఇంకా పూర్తిగా అభివృద్ధి కాలేదు అన్న విషయం గుర్తుంచుకోవాలి. పెద్దల దగ్గర సాధారణంగా ఉండే జలుబు, దగ్గు, లేదా వైరస్‌లు బిడ్డలకు మాత్రం తీవ్రమైన ఇన్ఫెక్షన్లకు కారణం కావచ్చు. అందుకే మొదటి కొన్ని నెలలు — 👉 బిడ్డ ముఖం మీద ముద్దులు పెట్టకపొవడం 👉 చేతులు శుభ్రంగా ఉంచడం 👉 అనారోగ్యంగా ఉన్నప్పుడు దగ్గరికి వెళ్లకపోవడం ఇవి చిన్న జాగ్రత్తలే… కానీ బిడ్డ ఆరోగ్యానికి చాలా ముఖ్యం 💛

In an attempt to protect our kids, we often end up doing too much - extra layers, closed rooms, skipped baths, heaters on all night, less water. Ironically, these very habits can make children more uncomfortable and prone to coughs, dryness, and irritation. Which one of these mistakes did you recognise in your routine?

Did your child suddenly refuse a food they once loved? You’re not alone, and it’s not stubbornness. In toddlers and young children, food refusals often happen because of tiny changes - texture, smell, temperature, or even one uncomfortable experience. It’s usually a normal developmental phase, not misbehaviour. Children often return to familiar foods in their own time. Trust the process.

If I was trying to build my kids' immunity in 2026, I wouldn’t begin with supplements, syrups or fancy “superfoods.” And I wouldn’t wait for the next cold or cough to fix things. Because after years of being a paediatrician and a mom, I’ve realised something important. The real immunity hack is surprisingly simple, make daily outdoor time non-negotiable. Here’s why this one habit works like magic: • Sunlight boosts Vitamin D, something half of Indian kids lack. • Open-air exposure trains the immune system with safe, natural microbes. • Physical play strengthens the lungs and reduces cough–cold cycles. • Outdoor time improves sleep, and better sleep strengthens immunity. • Nature reduces stress, and a calmer child has a stronger immune system. If I could pick only one immunity habit for the entire year, this would be it.

Hyderabad’s air isn’t the same anymore. And our children are breathing it every single day. You may notice more coughs, more allergies, more tired little bodies — that’s not coincidence, it’s the air around us. We can’t control the pollution outside, but we can reduce how much it affects our children inside their homes and routines. Small changes. Thoughtful choices. Because protecting their lungs today protects their health for years to come.

Some conversations stay with you, because they remind you why you do this work. Honoured to be a panelist at Playdate by @myfuniturestory , celebrating 10 years of creating meaningful play spaces for children. The event at @thubhyd brought together people who deeply care about childhood, its magic, its challenges, and its possibilities. I spoke about the idea of the WHOLE child. Because children are not just learners we teach… they are bodies we nurture, minds we shape, hearts we hold, and little spirits we’re trusted to inspire. Grateful for the room, the conversations, and the purpose we shared. Here’s to raising children who Play. Thrive. Belong.

Mealtimes really don’t have to feel like a war zone. Most kids do perfectly well with 20–30 minutes of focused eating, that’s enough. And if your child starts getting restless, distracted, or just refuses? Take a pause. Breathe. Don’t push. Because the moment we force-feed, the trust around food starts to break. Responsive feeding isn’t fancy, it simply means you offer, they decide. You decide the Quality and let your child decide the quantity. Slow, relaxed, mindful meals, that’s where the magic is. ❤️ [responsivefeeding, kidsnutrition, toddlermeals, mindfulmealtimes, picky eating, childhealth, positivefeeding, parentingtips, babymeals, toddlerparenting, kidswellbeing, pediatricianadvice, feedingroutine, foodhabits, gentleparenting, mealtimepeace, healthyhabitsforkids, momlifeindia, kidsdiet, nutritionforkids]

If motherhood came with a replay button, these are the 5 things I’d change without thinking twice. Not because I “did it wrong”, but because experience softens you in ways no book ever can. From Googling symptoms at 2 AM… to forgetting that my sleep mattered too… to comparing things that never needed comparison — I’ve lived through it all. And if you’re a first-time parent today, please know this: You don’t need to get everything right. You just need to show up with love and presence. Take a breath. You’re doing more than enough. ❤️ [1minwithdrjyo, drjyothirmayi, motherhood, firsttimemom, parentingtips, newparents, momlife, gentleparenting, babycare, postpartum, momjourney, parenthood, mindfulparenting, motherhoodunfiltered, realmomtalk, emotionalhealth, parentingtruths, momwisdom, newborncare, consciousparenting, babywellness, toddlerlife]

During fever, one of the most common questions I get from parents is — ‘Can I give rice during fever?’ The answer is yes! There’s no need to restrict foods when your child has fever. The body needs energy and fluids, not fasting. Give light, easily digestible foods — like rice, dal, curd rice, idli, upma, oats, or rasam rice. Foods like boiled egg or chicken soup are fine too, but give them only during the day, as they take a little longer to digest. Avoid oily, spicy, and fried foods. Focus on hydration — offer water, ORS, coconut water, or clear soups frequently. And remember, keeping the diet simple and light helps your child recover faster. If the fever lasts more than 3 days, or your child looks dull or refuses fluids, it’s time to see your doctor. I’m Dr. Jyothirmayi, Pediatrician — save this video for those fever days! #1minwithdrjyo #FeverDiet #DrJyoRecommends #DocMomJyo #PediatricianTips #FeverInKids #ParentingTips #ChildHealth #HydrationMatters #MomLifeIndia #DoctorMom #HealthReel #KidsHealth #ParentEducation #drjyothirmayi #cherishchildrensclinic

The years look good on us? Forever my favorite chapter — no matter the year. 🧡

Does your child start crying the moment they see the clinic or hospital? Parents, please listen — you might be the reason for that fear. At home, many parents say things like, “If you don’t eat, the doctor will give you an injection,” or “Doctor aunty will scold you.” It sounds harmless, but to a child, it builds fear. They start to see doctors as someone who hurts them, not helps them. As a pediatrician, it breaks my heart when a child cries even before I say hello. We are here to care, to comfort, and to help — not to scare them. You make us villains at home and then expect them not to cry at the clinic. Remember — a pediatrician and a child share a long-term relationship, from the day they are born till they become adults. So instead of scaring them with the word “doctor,” show them that doctors are here to help. That’s when hospital visits become cheerful, and trust begins to grow. 💗 #1minwithdrjyo #ParentingAwareness #PediatricianAdvice #PositiveParenting #GentleParenting #ChildCare #DoctorParentBond #ParentingDoneRight #drjyothirmayi #cherishchildrensclinic
