pls mama's, I also need answer to the question above. Thanks

rvpbae:


This children no go kill person. No salt for babies under one pls. How come he prefers salt? Who introduced him to salt?

Does he take other foods?

Giddyperson:

Lol salt kwa. First try adding cratfish and blended dry fish. August secrets sells but you can also blend yours. GB loves salty food too so i always put plenty of crayfish in her food.

Giddyperson:
My period is back It wasn't even up to two months post delivery . This is just village people .
On the bright side i haven't played any rough play

Biko we started potty training or something that looks like potty training . We started last week and up until now, she still doesn't know you're meant to poo or pee inside the potty. In fact if she starts pooping and i take off her diaper she stops. If i make her sit on the potty she stops too. I've tried putting a diaper in the potty, it didn't work. How did you people finally do it? Flora EC i know there was a time this was driving you crazy, how did you finally do it. Anyone else, especially anyone who's toddler stays home.

sunbestie:

My DS sits on his potty to pee but since he started school he prefers standing and holding his thing sef.... Lolz

God, this matter!
I'm so sorry, I've been so swamped lately.
@ grandma ifyalways I spoke to PM about the issue you raised.
She said her husband does forex exchange but was duped some years ago coupled with his recent illness which made things go downhill.
She assures me that he is trying his best to get back on his feet.

Dear Mama's, please I have a topic of discussion. I met a friend today who asked about my baby and I told her she was in creche. She told me it was too early that I would have allowed her clock at least 1year I told her I had no choice... She said most of those caregivers only do it for the sake of the money that besides I don't know what goes on there. Since then I've been so worried and confused... I thought putting a child in creche is a good idea esp for mothers that don't really have the full time. She also said the child can't really express themselves on what goes on there. Mama's what do you all think about this topic

SOS Please:
My wife(nursing mother) travelled out of the country for work, for 3weeks while she was exclusive breastfeeding our 4months baby.
Now she's back, but,
1. Baby doesn't want to latch on the breast.
2. Breast isn't secreting milking anymore.
Please, we would be needing any useful information on how to go about our situation. We really want to breast feeding our LO.
Thanks and God Bless.

PS: She was expressing while she was away, until I guess she was tired or stressful for her, so she stopped after two weeks.
2. She has been drinking fenugreek soaked in water since her arrival.

cutiereborn:

My daughter started creche as soon as she turned 3.5 months as I had to resume work. Getting a nanny or minder to stay at home was a no-no.
The creche was close to my place of work, so I was always visiting to breast feed and check up on her.
Please don't let anybody make you feel guilty, each to his/her own.
At the end, God alone protects and preserves.

hunniesuzie:
People generally always have something to say about everything. Even those that don't do creche people tell them that they are raising clingy children that won't adjust well

Childcare is an absolute necessity for working mums, once you've checked the place and are comfortable with the facilities just ignore. If your friend feels strongly about it she can help you watch the baby while you work or do your business

My baby started creche at 15 weeks because (wo)man must work. He adjusted well, is absolutely fine and is 2 years old now. Don't worry, baby is fine!

SlimBrawnie:
Mamas pls what can I use for my baby"s skin, he has an extremely dry skin(from his father o). I have to apply ori always on his face so his face his not as dry as other parts of his body that is somehow scaly sef. My mum said the ori I use as his body cream doesn't contain enough oil that's why his body still looks dry after applying. I was thinking twas the weather.
Also he doesn't like lying down again, he's always struggling/crying to sit up & look around for what I don't know and he'd be 3months by next week. At what month can I start sitting him up?

angeltolly:
First My DS had indigestion for a day then when he finally poop it was watery poop over the weekend, that is gone now but the issue is he's always demanding for water such that he will become so full and vomit almost everything he's had. I was afraid of dehydration, so I give him anytime he ask for water. No fever, plays well but am thinking he's lost some weight (dunno if its me tho) please who has anything to say to this.

Giddyperson:

Maybe shea butter is not a good enough moisturizer for his kind of skin. If it were an older child, I'd say don't towel dry his body and just rub the shea butter over the water on his body after bath. But for a 3 month old, just buy Aveeno or Sebamed lotion. If you don't want to waste money on those, try coconut oil.

Giddyperson:
My period is back :'up until now, she still doesn't know you're meant to poo or pee inside the potty. In fact if she starts pooping and i take off her diaper e.

pls mama's, I also need answer to the question above. Thanks

lightedpath:
The things we did that helped : you need to let her stay off diaper once you are at home, you will clean urine and poo but it will let her understand what you are telling her. At some point she will start cleaning the urine herself. Each time she urinates or poo, tell her what she did and point to the potty telling her to use it next time (she won't understand immediately so you have to be patient) and don't get tired of repeating the process. The last thing I did that eventually gave us breakthrough was to be using the potty myself so that she could See Me and I tell her what I just did. This really helped... All the best

SlimBrawnie:


It was even coconut oil I was using from birth, it even makes his skin dry the more, not good for him at all. I'd get Sebamed or Aveeno within the week. I'd still try that Shea butter over water tomorrow shaaa.
Thank you
