Pooping twice a day sounds normal to me o! Why do you think it's diarrhea?


That once in three days you said before sounds like constipation. Even as an adult do you poop once in three days?

What color is the poop?

ur baby s fine really. if no mucus, then no catarrh. his breathing ll b fine wt time. Just try nt yo expose him to cold, and of course, dont overcover him.

u know his usual poop cycle so only u can tell wots normal or not. I'll advise u pause d cereal for 24hrs n observe him. keep his environment clean- use bleach or disinfectant to mop floors, sterilize his toys and wash his hands frequently. give him water steadily and ORS to replace lost fluids. he'll be fine.

Pls your advice is needed, I'm really worried.

u can gv him orange juice. Squeeze d orange into a cup/bowl, remove d seed and oda particles and gv him abt 2-3 spoons. U cld also insert ur lil finger into his bombom and just turn it round. Rub vaseline on ur finger first b4 inserting. 8days is a long tym, even for EBF babies.

I use a home made cream on my lil girl and seeing her smooth skin, people have been coming for the cream which I do for them and still make money.

Use Shea butter, coconut oil and palm kernel oil. Check out the procedure here http://www..com/be-beautiful-with-nature
Please note that I use this home made cream for her all round. From her head to toe including diaper changes.

Within a few days, you will come back her to tell a different story.

Unfortunately I stay in Awka.
Did you understand the procedure for the preparation? That combo works cos nobody had had a different story, it has been positive all the way.

By the way, I also handmade the coconut oil too. Try and do yours at home cos most of the store bought don't have all the neccessay ingredients due to adulteration and please buy your ori from those women in the market not supermarkets.
Good luck
