He is not wearing anytin much.he is eating too.tnks dear.
hunniesuzie:
PCM at 6 hour intervals. Reduce his clothes. Mop him with damp washcloth. Very low grade fever like that with no other symptom is usually teething in my experience.

Shebi he's eating well?

[quote author=Sansa143 post=63276235]thanks so much,though he is still hot n still reading 37.8.Should I still administer pcm?[/quoCom


Complete the dose of paracetamol for morning, afternoon and evening. He is likely to be teething

Good afternoon mama's.
Abeg, make una help me ooo, my baby cried alot yesterday without no reason but dis morning, I notice some spot on his body(smtin like measle) n he is running temperature. He is a year n 5month old. Ave use pcm for him but no changes yet. What else can I do/use?
Mama's, help me choke mouth for my matter, plsssss
did you measure the temperature with a thermometer? Cos the hand deceives o. If yes, the major thing first is to bring the temperature down, try ibuprofen/neurofen in place of pcm and do tepid bath. If the temperature still doesnt subside and there are other symptoms pls go to the hospital

For him to have rashes + being irritable + fever at the same time may require a doctor's expertise. So please give the neurofen and take him to see a paediatrician.
Well done mama.

Great Mothers, Please help o. ..

There is a little girl of almost 3yrs that likes me in the neighborhood, I am her teacher. Infact we are really close, closer than her mother....

Her mother left home about a month ago saying that she isn't interested in marriage again... But the problem is that She left her daughter..
Although this isn't her first time of separating with her husband.. Her husband could not take care of the child and begged me to take care of her for the main time..
The girl has been with my family for 3weeks now...she is very playful. she talks and eats well...

But the problem is that she won't talk when she wants to wee or poo.. She will just sit down and poo wherever she is..

D worst of it was when she was eating....She was eating and within a twinkle of an eye, She has messed up..... I dunno waht to do! I don tire! I am confused

My opinion
I think it's her own reaction or coping mechanism to her being separated from her folks.
A dear friend of mine had this issh a while ago she had to take in her elder brother's daughters who were three and one. One of them did this same thing. She would be eating and suddenly mess up herself and not say a word.
My Friend just had to patiently tough it out. The little girl is well adjusted now
We can never tell the impact separation has on little kids esp since they can't completely express themselves.
Lots of love and patience
Small tough love u might need to spank sometimes
Then if u have an older child let them assist in reminding her to use d rest room always
My friend recruited her boys 6 yr old and 4yr old to keep reminding thier cousin to go wee and also take her along whenever they wanted to wee or poo.
they did it so often that she would start crying whenever she was told d boys didn't show mercy grin

Please help

She’s not yet 3 years old. She’s 2 years +

I know some kids that age and even older that are still wearing diapers.

She’s still a little child that’s learning. Every child develops/learns at a different pace depending on the love/support/environment they find themselves in.

Please no spanking or shouting. Both won’t work and it might actually be counter productive and instill fear in her. You need to be patient with her. If you apply the right technique, she will be toilet trained in less than a month.

Have you asked her parents if she exhibited the same toilet habits whilst staying with them ?

The problem is that she might still be adjusting to a new home/routine/environment (yours) , so you need to give her some time to adapt both physically and psychologically to her new environment and the people around her.

That said, hold her hand, explain to her calmly that it’s time for a wee and take her to the toilet(or put her on a potty as she might be scared of falling if she sits on the WC) every 2 hours.

Regarding the poo issue, are you sure it’s not a case of very loose stools as a result of what she’s been fed? If her stools are loose, then maybe you should watch what she eats.

If that’s not the case, then you need to help her build her confidence so that can freely walk up to you and let you know when she wants to have a poo.

A reward system works great. You could get a cheap colouring book with crayon and tell her that everytime she poos in the toilet/potty, she gets to colour a full page. Offering treats such as sweets or biscuits as reward for good toilet habit also helps with toilet training.

There might be the occasional slip up but don’t make a big fuss out of it. This is only a phase that will pass before you know it. You’ve done really well by accommodating her in your home. God bless you.

Okay ma.. Her poo aren't loose. I guess the problem is from home cause she doesn't inform her mother about pooing..She just poo anywhere and her mother cleans her up...But she doesn't do that in School just once in a while.....
I will try d reward system... Amen to your prayers. Thanks ma
