That's serious then. Saw a lot of my ANC friends tying it after they deliver and I went visiting but I didn't bother to ask them why as I know I will definitely not the it even though I know it's for tummy to go down. It is well. To be a woman no be joke o.

It depends on many factor. Medically most paediatrician would tell u 6months for exclusive while few tells u, 4months is ok to start. 6months is mostly adviced because by then d baby's digestive system is very matured and to boost d baby's immune system more cos of d antibodies contained in breastmilk to fight infections and diseases. That's not to say by 4months d baby's digestive system is not matured though but it's more matured at 6months.

If u want to start at 4months, u av to consider the following; is d baby interested in food while u r eatin?, is d baby's neck stable?, can d baby sit assisted? Etc

For me, I started my baby cereal at 4months. Apart from the fact that my answer to d questions above is yes, breastmilk was no longer enough for him. When I feed him, he ll be shoutin in less than 30mins which was unlike him. So a paediatrician adviced I supplement and since then no more cryin.

So my dear, it's not compulsory u start at 4months. If u are producin well and ur baby at 4months is suckin well and gets full after each feed, pls continue till 6months.

Hmmm. We just have to let them have their cravings at times! Was feeding him minutes ago, he just stood up looking around for his cup! Went straight to d refridgerator & attempted opening it: wanted to get his cup as his water was at sight. Had no choice but to get him his cup (because he wouldn't leave), pour him a little & attempted feeding him afterwards. Gosh! He shut his lips ni o until he had his water to satisfaction. Thank God it's a normal attitude/cravings. I'm OK with that.
