  • Risk Factors: Premature babies are at a higher risk. But, recently, there’s been a lot of hullabaloo about certain baby formulas being a contributing factor. Raises eyebrows, doesn’t it?

Symptoms and Complications

  • Tummy troubles, swelling, and a change in stool are the usual culprits. But, here’s the kicker: if left unchecked, it can lead to life-threatening complications. Yikes!
