ayolight:

tnk u so much. infact i cant tnk u enough for ur concern. u re rit she stats sitting late by herself around 7mnths, nd since den no oda developmnt. her weight is very poor nd im tryin my best givin her wat i tink shud work for her. as regards her birth, d only tin i cud say is dat she is deliverd tru CS and she dnt cry immediately she was deliverd, i knw dis cos i was not sleepin truout d process i tink dey jst reduce effect of pain. so dat is d only tin dat happns durin her birth, but her first 6mnth or there about of life was fantastic, very fat, lively, talking always baby. though, probably cos she is always with me i dnt notice dis changes until wen we went for her last immunizastion. since den ve been batlin wit all wat ve said earlier. i honestly appreciate u. God bless u.

You didn't state earlier that he can sit. He probably need help in working on the muscles to hasten his motor skills. Is he using the baby walker yet? The doc I sent an email hasn't replied me but I was told there are quite a number of consultant paed at FMC ado ekiti. Can you help ans these ques:
1, Does he play with his hands? Like touching stuffs and bringing it to his mouth and head?

2 does he clap his hands or bring them together?

3 does he roll on the floor on both sides?

Regards

Please, go for MP test to be sure it's malaria. Sometimes, (slightly) high temp is not always a symptom of malaria nor that of teething. Don't just administer medicaments. I'm not sure if those soaps could affect your kid negatively though, kp using them as instructed but endeavour you go for d MP (malaria parasite)t at any rep medical lab.
You should tuck d mosquito net into your beddings to secure your child from mosquitoes & falling. Kp your environment clean as much as possible, at least for your kid sake.
Stay safe. It's well with your family.

Sorry to say but your outline is contradictory, doc and pharmacist You certain its doctors telling you your baby had malaria or a chemist shop?? You need to be very careful with administering un-prescribed drugs to a 10months old because of his Liver and most importantly brain damage. Besides, how could your baby be having malaria every month? Hmmm. Pls thread carefully

So till nw she still has a poor weight. But her eatin habit has improvd her weight is less dan 8kg and she is close to 13mnths. Tnks.

When next you go to FMC, insist that you want to see a paed and not just a general doc. from your answer, i can comfortably tell you that your baby is fine, she just need help on her motor skills. i think this is the time you need to devout much time to her during the day. although her weight at 13 months is poor and since she is not interested in taking the pap, you can give her the adult food she so much want. i do not know much about variety of adult food that can be given to a baby at that age. maybe mothers inhere could be of help in that area. ALSO DO NOT FORCE-FEED HER, it will affect her psychology when its time to eat always.

practice the sitting technique i gave u often, always place her on her tummy ( this will encourage/stimulate crawling and dont do this on a hard floor) and also get her a baby walker to assist her leg muscles to hasten standing standing-up and walking later on. you can also watch some physical therapy videos on you-tube. this will assist you on how to go about it.

In all, try to see a pead and NOT a general practitioner and most importantly devout more time for her to help with her motor skills.
