Don't worry dear. D left breast produces milk too but maybe not as much as d right. Try and feed ur baby more with d left breast.

Oluqueen:


Will look for it and buy.
Tnx Sooo much. I have one other funny wahala o, please I unknowingly got used to breastfeeding with my right Breast and now the size of that one is times 2 or 3 the left Breast. It's even obvious when I put on clothes.

I have tried feeding my baby with the left one but it seems milk doesn't come out. How do I get both Breast equal again.

I go soon resume work, can't imagine going with two unequal sized Breast o.

Mamas. My baby has fever since 3 days now but its been subsiding. Been to the hospital and was given antimalaria and zinnat. This morning he started pooing and i'm giving him ors.
Some people say he's teething. My baby that used to eat all kinds of solids now prefers only breastmilk. He would throw up his cereal if i force him.
Now he's been sleeping a lot. Pls wat do i do. How would take for this teething phase to pass for the tooth to sprout cos i'm not seeing any sign of teeth here.
dnt be worried. It cud b teething as it makes some children not to eat. Kip breastfeeding him, if dts what he wants. U cud use ibrupofen for d fever and wet towel him often

pls stop using silverbird directly on babies' scalp. It's very powerful . U can mix a lil qty with his oil. I knew that thng is powerful the day i used it myself when i had catarh. God! a lil drop on a towel was felt deep inside when i inhaled it.
U can also rub few drops on his clothes for him to inhale not having direct contact with his skin o.

Also burp ur baby well and put her to sleep on her tummy. Make sure her head is firm on the bed. Trust me u would be more than grateful cos she will sleep well. Then if she makes any sound or wants to cry turn her to her back. She isprobably tired of sleepingon hertummy. Watchher for some time. She might sleep backornot. Then u will know what to do. Sleeping on d tummy also helps reduce gassiness. Evenif urbaby doesn't burp ucan still put heer on her tummy. She will burp while slepping.nva put urbaby on her back if she hasn't burped.
I am a first timemom but my baby has taught me a lot and I am still learning. My mother in law even calls me to tell her what he wants once he starts acting up.
Ask for all d advice u want buh ur baby decides how u implement them.Pardon my errors. Rocking baby as I am typing

Thanks alot. Personally milk disturbs me. I get really gassy. I hv bn enduring the milk and milo cos de keep saying its gd for breast milk.

So please what do I take to get enough breast milk. Please this is important.

Wen my sis baby had cough n cattarrh, d doc just told her 2 continue breastfeeding n dat it ll go on its own. Sometimes dis drugs given 2 infant reduces dia immune 2 d ailment, it might cure it @ 1st bt later ur baby becomes resistant 2 d drugs. Wat I do is use hot water 2 press her nose n rub ori on her nose n neck n it goes on its own. I tink our weather here, d dust also makes our los get d cough n cattarrh frequently. I feel u cos its mostly @ nite wen d baby is settling down 2 sleep dat d cough becomes serious. Just rub ori on his neck den, myb he ll settle. Oda mamas pls ur opinions.

If it's just the tongue...you can leave it like that. It will clear.

But as you are saying it is on the upper gum area...you have to eliminate the possibility of trush.
