I wish it was possible to search with keywords on only one thread. Sabi mamas have described this procedure tire.
1. Don't be scared. Gear actually makes you make mistakes. Gather your mind well
2. You're not incompetent, hugs
Get a bucket of hot steaming water, put 2 drops of eucalyptus oil in it and sit on a stool in front of it. Carry your baby firmly on your lap, get your husband to cover both of you with a big sheet. You sef you'll feel the steam entering your respiratory system

Congratulations to the New moms. May God continually keep watch over our babies amen.

I need help! Bobo developed cough and cataarh last night and he's having a miserable time of it. We went to the hospital and were given vit c and piriton; however he's no better. Pls help! I'm scared of hot water and baby but at this rate I've got no choice. How do I go bout it??

I feel pretty incompetent esp cos grandma has been around from birth till 7 weeks and the boy scarcely developed an itch. Now within a couple days of me alone with him, he's fallen ill. sad He's just 7weeks and 5 days. He's not sleeping well at all. Help!!!

I have a tip I want to share.

When your baby has cataarrh, I mean that thick one that blocks the nostrils, do this: be watchful for that time they will sneeze which is often and usually comes in twos or threes, when the sneeze is about to land grin, quickly use one finger to press down one nostril and see how all the nyamanyama gunk will ooze out of the other nostril leaving her airways clear. My mum taught me this.

I took it a step further and will carry the baby and tickle her nose with a cotton bud and wait for the sneeze. The mucus that will come out ehhhhh. No be small thing and me nko, I find it very satisfying cheesy grin grin

Try it and see

Modified: I want to add something. You wait until the sneeze hits halfway before closing one nostril. If you block it before it reach ground, the sneeze will just disappear. There is a knack to it grin grin

goodfortun u can try this for the catarrh and see..

Evening All,

Giddyperson happy belated birthday....
Zaynie, happy birthday to atinuke, shes so cute.

I have a question...

Is a High feeding chair a luxury or necessity? I feel like I should get one now that my Dd is almost one. So she can use it for mealtimes and for TV times (the TV is hung up and she has to stand in her playpen to watch for now)

For me and my situation, its a necessity. My son has started feeding himself finger foods and also trying to use a spoon, so putting him in a high chair curbs all the mess associated with that. I put snacks and finger foods on the tray of his highchair and he sits there peacefully feeding himself and watching TV.

When I'm cooking, and don't want him afoot, I put him in his chair and he can watch me cook and also watch TV at the same time. I even use the highchair to "arrest him" atimes because that's the only place he would sit without fussing or running around. Infact, I have three sef, I have the standalone Graco and the Fischer Price you strap to a dinning chair and the Bumbo seat(I used this when he was smaller). They all served me beautifully

Lol, I started doing it when work resumed, my baby was 3 months old. I can confirm that none of those things have ever happened [s]Except of course your boobs are the H cup type in which case I may not have any advice for you[/s] . In fact, my baby is so used to it that before he opens his eyes he first turns his head to either side looking for brezz, then waves his hands in the air trying to touch me, then cries a little bit - all of this with his eyes tightly shut oh! - if that fails then he will open his eyes and look for me/cry


lmao @hcup, I'd start the lying down to breed then, someone cannot come and run mad cheesy

Sansa143 sorry I was so busy today, cldnt respond to ur question early enough. Hope u r gud now?

For me its a necessity although i dont use it for TV watching. I had 2 - the bumbo seat like MamaOO which we have outgrown and packed up and the type you strap to the dining chair which we still use everyday and have used since she was 7 months. (she is 23 months now)

It has made meal times bearable as i do not have to carry her everytime to feed. Also one of them came with a toy bar so if i need to do stuff in the kitchen like clear up after meals i can leave her in it for a bit longer and have some peace of mind while she plays there.

Both have a table attachement but we use the main dining table now.

For TV watching my dd seats on the sofas. She can climb them herself as well. The tv is also hung high on the wall but i didnt notice any issues with her watching it.

Personally, I also try to discourage her screen time so i wont really go out of my way to make her too comfy infront of the TV. When i put cartoons for her, after 2 hrs i turn it off into something else because i cannot be dragging remote with i konkolo person!. grin grin grin

She also has her rocker which she still uses (sometimes) because it the infant to toddler one. This is in the living room.
