Pls my mamas, how true is this? I use sudocrem mixed with shea butter(ori) to rub on my son's bombom before putting diaper on. My friend's mother told me that its not good to use d sheabutter to rub on male children from d lower abdomen down to their manhood area, that it would make their manhood to be soft as in that it won't be erect. Pls is this true?

Hello buriful mamas, how are we and our LO doing? Pls I av a question to ask on behalf of my SIL, she called to complain that her DS of almostt 6 months refuses to crawl on his 4, instead he lies flat on his chest wen put down to crawl(snake style). She is worried if the baby will b able to crawl like normal children do. Pls what can she do to make him crawl, stand up and walk normally? Thanks

tchiwinnie:

Besea:
Imnuflawal, sitz bath is done with lukewarm water but u should go back to the hospital to check if the hot water had broken the suture thread by force.
Mychealsea25, just stop the original and all that mix mix just use regular baby creme dats wat happened to my baby too. Some babies stop sucking on their own, sorry everyone hear just don't rub d breasts e hear and use cold compress.
For the flat tummy, if u dnt hv time for exercise just cut down on ur carbs dats wat I'm doing for now and dia is a big difference.

babythug:


3. Maybe you can bathe her more frequently to help with the sweating and smell.Like twice in the afternoons if possible. Also change her clothes more frequently. Ensure all areas of her body is washed e.g armpits,thighs(you know those folds that chubby babies are prone to have), behind the ears these are areas that we sometimes neglect while bathing our babies. Use lots of imported talcum powder on her too. Then what soap do u use to bathe her? Try lightly scented or perfumed ones maybe like cussons or lux type of ones...

4. For flat tummy you will need to reduce or eliminate carbs from your dinner, and then exercise e.g sit ups

Nita2013:
Hello dear, pls tell ur SIL not all babiesss crawl as it's not even a milestone for babies. He may not even crawl at all b4 standing. My son did not crawl b4 standing. Some kids use their tummy for crawlin so it depends.

maran1983:




Just seeing this. Can't remember my nairaland password jare.

Do you have anyone in Lagos? Cos I don't have any idea where Ado buses load in Abuja.

chelsea25:

Waoooooh thanks a lot dear..i Johnson products,are there better ones?

joyousf:


I heard they should load at Jabi.I av someone in lag though. let me find out if a friend can help me get it from u in Abuja.

joyousf:


maybe you should not totally stop the formula till u can have a very good flow.like others advised try to take hot stuffs: pap.tea.amala n some say pounded yam n eat well .I also started with formula but stopped after one n half week. ideally the more u put your baby to breast the more you should flow. you can also try pumping every two hours or three hours. u can also massage ur chest down to the breasts with something like ori. the idea is just to create warmth n allow milk flow. u can also try tying a wrapper firmly above your breast to create some pressure.

if all these still don't work, just continue with the formula.I believe ur baby will still b healthy n great. most of our mums didn't do ebf.

I wish u d best
