Parents concerned about baby sleeping on stomach
DEAR DOCTOR: We have always been careful to put our son to sleep on his back to prevent SIDS, but he has recently started turning over by himself, and we find him on his stomach. Should we prevent this? Should we put him on his back again? 12/07/2022 12:00 AM

Ignore those puppy eyes: Feed dogs healthy treats
Some dogs enjoy the spoils of begging for food; they might even swipe something off of a plate or the table when they think no one is watching. Yet these scraps aren’t always healthy for dogs and can create health issues over time. 12/07/2022 12:00 AM

I cannot believe my favorite time of the year is already here, “CHRISTMAS.” Please take a minute to close your eyes and picture the perfect Christmas. Some may imagine the smell of fresh-baked goods filling the house, the tree glistening with perfectly hung lights, and a fire crackling as the kids play with new toys. Of course, all children deserve to smile on Christmas day. However, Christmas is the one time during the year when the focus is on giving, emphasizing the excitement in the child’s eye as they unwrap a present specially chosen just for them. 12/04/2022 12:00 AM

People with synesthesia experience world with multiple senses
Dear Doctors: When our grandson first learned his colors, he sang them along with music. We thought he was copying that song for learning the ABCs. But when he got older, he started saying that he 'hears' the colors. We have been told this is called synesthesia. How and why does it happen? 11/30/2022 12:00 AM

Beer road trip: New Braunfels – Part
Guadalupe Brewing Co. got its start as many small breweries do, making beer in a pieced together system in a leased warehouse space. Bordered by farmland and a massive limestone quarry and cement plant on the southwestern edge of New Braunfels, Keith and Anna Kilker have spent years moving away from the warehouse and tasting-room vibe to create a destination. 11/27/2022 12:00 AM
