kaffy4bill:

Thank you. I will.

MamAs, good afternoon,
pls I need help or any one with similar experience.
my baby at 3 months cry all through the day for 4 days now .nothing I do would soothe her.. she rejects breast milk but can only drink it when it's pumped into a feeding bottle, though she hardly even takes d bottle. She's also supplemented with sma gold.
iv takin her to the hospital and the doctor doesn't seem to see anything wrong with her. She's also not pooed for 7 days now considering the fact that she's also on formula.
Pls what kan I do..it pains me to see her cry and m helpless.

Yes my lo's came out @4months. He is 9months now with 7teeth

Sum babies re naturally fussy and it's possible the baby doesn't want direct sucking again based on situations. Y r u supplementing wit SMA.. just try as much as u can to make d baby comfortable alwaz.. it's all motherhood experience, we don't hv it same way

Try out Gerber,Nutriben,Aptamil cereal,Heinz,Cerelac,cow and gate.it depends on the one your baby likes.Pap is good too;if you feel his not getting enough add soyabeans,grounded crayfish and groundnut to the pap.watch out for allergy too when you introduce anything new to your baby.

our babies are age mates. he also eats everything we eat but very little dat am worried he's nt getting filled. we still do battle when I try feeding him cereals. he's still breastfeeding, planning to wean him after his 1st birthday

Wow,my baby has stoped taking cereal.its always war when i try feeding him with cereal.so i glady settled for solid and he likes it much.he eats everything now,anything eatable*lool*,unlike before.if his not taking much at this stage,just be cool;its their time now[intial gra gra stage] it will pass.

mamasy:

I think this is where the problem is. My baby don't usually cry for long. But when he didn't poo for a week, he started crying seriously. It's only when he is asleep that we get some rest.

U r lucky he's opening his mouth to adult food oo, try to time his meal 3 hourly then u increase gradually as he grows. My 11months old baby is so bent on breastmilk.. sucks all nite and wil nt accept any solid food as long as he want to suck.. they wil grow out of it, it's a gradual process.. joy and pain of motherhood, pray God reward us bountifully

It's expensive oo, pls try give the child.I have a covered plan and hv nt taken my boy for it.. my bad

Thanks. I'm already thinking of taking her to a govt hospital. Try to take your boy for it on time o.

bossladyMo:


That's even cheap. It's 22,500 at the hospital I use.

Hmmm, the other two vaccines (OPV and penta) costed 3k, making 22.5k. Maybe we use the same hospital, lol.

vickilafab:
paid 16,500 when my son took his. pneumoccocal is 10k in my hospital. i hear its 8k in govt hosp. pls try o.. very impt vaccines. my neighbours almost 2 yr old kid is yet to walk cos of pneumonia (so d mom said)

Thanks. I will give her before this week runs out. I was told she will take it three times, imagine 19.5k times 3. It is well o.

My health insurance covers the others, so the 22,500 is just for the Pneumococcal and Rotavirus.

Ensure she takes it complete ooo. People end up spending more than that on Rotaviral infections (a common deadly infections in kids aged 1-3), and pneumonia and ear infections. She is to take 4 pneumococcal vaccines and 3 rotavirus.

The 4th pneumococcal vaccine is to be taken at 12-15mths or so. Check the book.

Since he takes adult food,just settle for that.noticed my baby dont like me feeding him so i usually put the food in his plate and place it in front of him,he Picks from the plate or the mat to eat.he sucks just 1or2twice in the afternoon(if he wants to sleep)4 to 5tyms @ night till day break.
