Please how compulsory is this ROTA immunization and at what age are babies expected to take it?
My baby will be 8 weeks tomorrow, and the ROTA wasn't given to him during the last immunization. Please what do I do now?
From the hospital I use for immunization they said its from 6 weeks,not for newborn so they said. so whether ur baby collect his first dose at eight weeks the most important thing is that he must complete the three doses and we were told each dose is given at four weeks apart I even have the flier for the rota vaccine stuff

Initially, we weren't given the ROTA cos of its unavailability in the state I reside until 2 months ago when it was brought and administered to kids below 2 yrs..

Its to prevent diarrhoea in kids though some parents don't take it for their kids because it's side effect is same diarrhoea

Massage the affected breast with warm water. If it's not helping, rub palm kernel oil on the breast to help to help soften it as you massage out the milk.. The time I had a terrible engorgement with sickening fever, it was Palm kernel oil my mum rubbed to soften the boob making massage easier..
After boob un has softened, also ensure baby feeds from it well enough

He's probably constipated. Pour warm water in his bathtub or a big bowl and let him sit in the warm water for some time. It will ease the pains in case he has tears. Lubricate his anus with vaseline or shea butter next time he wants to poop. Gently rub in the vaseline so that the poop can pass without much pain to the young lad.
Now, please increase his water intake and give him oranges to help soften his poop. Kisses to your son.

Layormiii how na? I don't think anything is wrong with your bobo. Since he plays and eats well, and isn't showing any sign of discomfort.
His birthday mate here poops the same yellow, seedy, mucousy poop. Sometimes 4-6 times in a day. That's how we roll grin

Hello mums, I want to share this based on my shikini experience and considering it might be helpful for some mums.

I've always read about how difficult potty training can be and I've always wished it'd be the opposite for me. When my babe was 4 months +, I went visiting a church member whose babe was 3 weeks older. She was airing the baby’s bum and also putting her on the potty occasionally to pee and or poop.

When I got home, ffiiiaammm I brought out mackintosh and cut into the size I wanted, cut wrapper and told my baby from today we start using the potty.. After she sold her first diaper and I clean her up, I will put her on the mackintosh with wrapper and start putting her on the potty. Is it Difficult? YES because we sometimes stay 20 minutes playing without a single wee sadbut the moment I put her back on bed, she releases the tap cheesy. but there's no going back.

Gradually she began to pee and even poo in the potty. Sometimes when we wake up and she's yet to poo, I intentionally remove her diaper and we sit till she poops cos she poos every morning even if she'll still poop more, that morning own must come grin... Sometimes she'll even eb crying in the potty o after during which poop will follow grin.. This morning after we've had our bath and her diaper was on her, I heard a loud fart and quickly tapped her buttocks, removed the diaper so she can sit. Immediately she sat, loud farts and poop followed... Lest I forget, azzidents do happen too and I don't blame her or myself for it cos its a gradual process.. If she can sit on it now, it won't be a problem as she'll continue to get used to it.. I also snap and make videos of her to show her later in the future grin ;D9

Sorry about the boring story, I just hope it'll be helpful especially for mums that stays at home and also on weekends for mums that work.

It’s likely baby is constipated. Focus on foods with fibre while making sure he takes water every now and then no matter how little.

Also, prunes, plums, apples, oats, pear etc do help with constipation. Try to include one (or more) of these in his everyday diet.

Considering he is 11 months, steamed puréed/mashed apple or pear can be given as snacks or used as sweetener for his oats.

Please help, my baby makes grunting noises as if catarrh is stuck in her nose, when she sucks its more pronounced and she also makes the grunting noises when she is aeep, she has been doing it everyday since birth, but my mother who is doing omugwo told me it's normal for new born, please has anyone had this experience before?
Baby grunting and breathing loud as if there is mucus stuck at back of nose/throat?
There is no catarrh coming out from her nose, I only noticed the noisy breathing.
Similar grunting noise here too.
Doctor said it's normal.
It cleared on its own.
