I buy from tripple A baby store in Garki market or pharmacare in games village.
For ur baby's hair,I learnt from ds thread to wash dr hair not more than twice a week with baby shampoo,den to apply kiddies conditioner and to be applying shea butter.
Its been working real well for us. My DD's hair dt eela had almost finished is now so full,curly n bouncy.
Thanks to bossladymo,cos she was d one dt gave d advise here. I've been silently learning loads of stuff here for like a year plus now!
God bless y'all mamas!

Thanks dear,I do apply ori but i noticed that her hair is very dry most times and i believe that pouring water on baby's hair makes them sleep better and longer so what happens if i dont wash her hair daily...just confused, @Bosslady please share more light on this.....Thanks

Washing the hair everyday dries out the hair....that's prolly why you can notice her hair being dry. Babies dont fix weavon, apply hair spray, serum and all those other things that make the hair dirty. Ori and olive oil are both natural....and almost everything is absorbed....so there is no waste residue.

Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by sheweezy(f): 3:32pm On Jun 30, 2015
Ftm with tons of questions please senior mamas, no vex.
First is please which shampoo can be used and do i have to do all of the hair special care for my son, although I plan to do afro for him till he is 1 cos he is very hairy.
Second is I noticed some rashes on my son's face, I felt it can't be heat rashes cos its only on his face and that's the part of his body that is never covered. I feel it's a reaction but I don't know to what, he uses coconut oil as cream and Johnson soap to bathe.
Lastly, please which family method has the lesser side effect?

And boy is she as strong as a horse. Never had a fever since birth and only a mild incidence of cold since birth. Bt it cud jus b her own constitution. All babies r different.Anyway, my doc gave me these wen we were leaving d hospital after birth. Don't know abt urs.

I'll do dat wen I get home. Afraab is a brand name. So too is Em. Vite is multivitamine. I use Afraab vite till she hit d 5th month den I switched to Em vite wt increased dosage. 7 seas cod liver oil is vit A and D, omega 3 and iron. All of wich ur growing baby needs and can't do without. My nephews and neices all take it even nw and d babies in our family r known to b strong health-wise. I'll send U d pics as soon as I gt home.

It's preferable to use cup and spoon also you add milk in powder form to the already prepared pap. Also it shouldn't be too thick so it would be easy for your Lo to swallow.
Sorry for disturbing u, pls what's the ratio of pap to milk

I use a feeding bottle wt spoon attached. Its neater dan a cup. I first put in a little water den add milk b4 d pap. Nw as 4 d ratio dat depends on U and ur baby. I use a couple of scoops to 200/240ml of pap in a feeder. Anytin more hardens my baby's stool to d point dat she grunts and cries wen trying to poop.

Y do U want to use sudocream all over her body? Wat happened to agnesia powder?as 4 cleaning d tongue, dissolve a tiny bit of alum in warm water deep in a small face towel/burp cloth clean wt dis by inserting ur index finger into her mouth. Do dis every morning wen U r abt bathing her. Bt stop d alum once her tongue is clean and pink again. Jus use plane water and d burp cloth.

How old is your baby? How do you prevent the Dudu Osun soap from entering her eyes?

You can get any good kiddies conditioner....check any supermarket or store around you. Then get a seperate kiddies shampoo, cos some are a combo of shampoo and conditioner.

Get a spray bottle. Mix water and olive oil/coconut oil/or any other natural hair oil in it. Then spritz the hair lightly.

If you don't have a spray bottle, just mix olive oil/coconut oil/or any other natural oil you have, with a bit of water, and rub on the hair.

Wait for about 3-5mins, then comb. The ratio of the oil-water should be 70:30. This will soften the hair.

Also....Johnson products are not really good on African skin, so I would assume their hair producta wont be any better. If you can get any other product, you should change. The Sebamed shampoo is a very good choice though. It is soap and alkali free.
