vickilafab:


hmmmmm.. it's well. amen to those prayers. thanks much

have you gone to d doc? Mine has 4 with no stooling or fever. Run tests to be on d safe side. Hugs to lo

tchiwinnie:
its actually 1 satchet of ORS to 1litre of water. 1 big eva is 1.5litres, so u ll need to reduce d water to abt d upper label on d bottle.
@mojAyo, ow s ur baby?

tanx,my baby is doing fine now,no more stooling again,bt I'm still giving him d anti diarrhea medicine,and I wanna ask,why do babies flask break so easily like dat,is it always like dat when ur baby is still small,two got broken now,and without flask,how can u do somethings for ur baby which will require hot water,I'm just so down here ,tanx for ur care and concern about my baby

vickilafab:

my brother tnx 4 asking.. he's fine but still stooling he's not dehydrated tho. & as active as ever just occasionally fussy.
still refusing cereals and meds. I usually force d drugs down ni o. I noticed he's teething tho- felt it wen I put my finger in his mouth. if it's teething causing d stool, how long will it take b4 it stops?

Since he is teething, pls monitor what goes into his mouth. Buy teething ring and keep it clean/ sterilized. the ones with silicon can go to the fridge.

People say stools while teething is as a result of 'not so clean' things the baby put in their mouth to relieve their itching gum

My daughter just sprung four teeth and she had the slimy okro poop for two or so days but she is fine now, just fussy and whiny,no temperature

tchiwinnie:
u may need to add formula, mayb she s nt getting enuf.do u kno her exact weight?

yes her weight is 6.4 at 4months.

tchiwinnie:
if ur baby s having diarhoea, then pls gv ors and zinc. dont wait till dehydration sets in first. did u gv rotavirus vaccine?

Tnx sis. Forced d ORS down his throat yst. Wots d purpose of d zinc? Yes, he took rotavirus vaccine

tchiwinnie:
was it zinc glucose u were given or plain zinc. wot he needs s zinc o

Zinc gluconate 70mg. Said to break half tab in little water and giv him 2x daily for 10 days

tchiwinnie:

My sister, he has teething rings o wch I wash, sterilize wt milton liquid den still use hot water to rinse. If I put it in d fridge, I keep in sterilised plate wt cover. I'm also careful wt his toys and wot he puts in his mouth. I wash his hands severally as he's fond of putting his hands in his mouth since he was abt 4 months so I don't think it's hygiene issue.
How nice for ur daughter eagerly awaiting my LO's own; maybe we'll go to bed one night den wake up d nxt morn and c teeth

Hello everyone!

I figured out my 2 week old baby as silent reflux. It started the same day I tool beveragr and milk (Friday)...and I read online that some babies are allergic to milk proteins. I have since stopped taking milk and milk products. She archs her back, pulls her knees up to her tummy and is in obvious discomfort...does not spit up though...and this happens after every feed. It gets worse when you lay her on her back to sleep. I intend getting infant gaviscon, but would like to know if anyone here has used it

Any other possible solutions/treatments are welcome also.

Also, sometimes it seems like gas pains...should I get infacol first?

Thank you.

Hello beautiful mothers and fathers in the house.It's been a while.Pls my 17 month old baby has been stooling for few days now.Although, I discovered she is bringing out 6 teeth at once.I have been consistently giving her zinc(1 tablet per day) and ORS. She's playing well too.However, she has lost apetite; she refuses any food I offer her.In fact, all she wants is water.Pls I need suggestions as to the kinds of food I could feed her.She has lost weight as well.I'll appreciate your comments.Thanks

u can get the flask from the market and baby shops. it keeps water hot for like 2 days bt den u should be boiling fresh water daily. b4 u buy, open the cover and put to ur ear, it should av a hollow sound like the breakable type - dats how u know d original. buy it from someone u know sells good stuff. but because its unbreakable doesn't mean u should be letting it drop on d floor as dat weakens it. tnk God ur baby is fine now. I didn't give mine any medicine just ORS.

pls see the paediatrician b4 administering drugs. u can lie her on her tummy or side wedged wt cloth, don't put her on her back. It's common with a lot of newborns, I guess it's their tummy getting used to d new food. just burp her well b4 u put her down, should be a thing of d past by 3 months. mine experienced it sortof & I didn't use anything for him neither did I stop drinking milk or eating eggs, nuts etc.

Hello mums, who has used Cypri gold for baby appetite. My baby is 8 weeks
@babe01, its ur period. I saw mine at 6 weeks postpartum. Just a day to my doc appointment n he confirmed its my period. So dont fret but watch it.

I have never used it but I heard it makes babies sleep for so long; some as much as 3 days before the effectiveness wear off. At 8 weeks its kinda early to start introducing such to your baby.

What exactly is wrong with baby's appetite? What does she feed on?

I broke up to 2 by the time my baby was 6 months old,my aunt helped me replace the bottle inside the broken big flask with a new one in the East and I bought 2 stainless flask for outing-the medium one was 2500 while the very small one was 1k.

It's better you use stainless flask for outing.

You are not alone in the flask issue jare

roWzayy:
yes her weight is 6.4 at 4months.

6.4kg at 4months is not bad., download the average weight chart from baby centre to crosscheck

Thanks! I'm a huge supporter of no self-medication too...just felt infant gaviscon was like paracetamol that is widely accepted.

My first child never had it. She quietens when placed tummy down though...but she hardly burps, you can spend 20mins burping her and nothing will come out. Warm compress used to work, but doesnt seem to workanymore.

ok I ll do dat thk u very much for ur response I appreciate

jboixxx:

I don't know how long o. My son didn't stool but ran mild temp in d first phase of teething. Be given him ORS/enough fluid would do. Was told that attempting to control d stooling of a teething baby isn't good.
Don't worry, only first phase s usually 'tedious'. Subsequent ones would b mild.
It is well with OUR LOs. God's healing power will b on LOs going through development/growth processes of any sort. Fear not, because all is well.

u mean its nt good to treat diarrhea for babies as a result of teething,bt I think pead say,diarrhea is nt a sign of teething,bt as a result of what baby put in his mouth during teething dat cause d diarrhea,u can google it,if I'm lying,so nt treating a baby for diarrhea,how can it go on its own without any anti-diarrhea medicine
