Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
thanks for writing us about your health concerns
There was nothing wrong in treatment and the problem of meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS)
cannot be prevented by the same
So all that occurred was just a coincidence that she had all those issues.
But in general in case she hadn't had tooth infection, the problem of infection after MAS would have been a little milder.
So just relax and enjoy this new phase of life
Take care
Regards
