Ok so water should not be given to a baby less than 6 months. How do mothers giving cereals below 6 months manage? Please I need answers

When a baby start to take solids or semi solids either @ 4 months or 6 months, he has to be given water. Mothers who do not give water before 6 months feed their babies bweastmilk or formula only for 6 months.

If possible, pls change his current set of food. Try out some other food options and gradually re-introduce his current meals.

Hello all mamas in the house, how is our LOs doing. Please I noticed for the past two or three days that my son started grunting and squirming when he sleeps. Sometimes he wakes up and I have to pacify him to sleep again. I don't know if it's too much gas, and I have no idea what drug to use, some say gripe water, I heard it's not advisable to give babies gripe water. He is 25days old and he poos and burps.well, he is both breastfeeding and formula feed. I don't know what to do, is there any thing I can give him to reduce his grunting.

He will outgrow this with time. Some babies do it till 1 year. It's nothing to worry about. My baby would sometimes cry, smile or even laugh out in his sleep but will sleep back immediately. I just say a word of prayer to reassure myself but really, it happens to all babies.

franky2013:
gud day mamas, pls my baby just started snoring n is affecting her sleep, is it something dat will pass or its something i should b worried abt? i m really feeling for her n d way she breathes too. God bless u all

How old is your baby?

Some babies snore initially but outgrow it. Pls use a clean damp cloth to gently clean her nostrils every morning after bath to free up her nostrils.

Greetings mothers, pls I need advice. My boy is 1 year and 2 weeks, he is walking now. Wifee is Preg so we stopped breastfeeding . we are using peak 123 with his homemade pap, is the peak 123 OK? Also he normally poo after his first meal in the morning but he doesn't like sitting on his Putty chair. Pls I need advice thanks.

Peak 123 is fine.

With time he will get used to the potty chair. To encourage him, you can get a very attractive one that he can also convert as a chair when it's covered. Also, anytime he poos in his potty, clap for him, carry him or somehow, just show him you are very happy with him and let him realise pooing in his potty makes everyone happy. It's a form of reward system that makes them to want repeat that action. @topemel - pls try this also.

Good day mamas,please what can I use for my baby complexion, she keeps getting dark, I have used chicco soap and lotion but no difference, right now she is using a goat milk liquid soap and johnson(SA) lotion, please any suggestions on product to use?she was born very very fair complexioned but now chocolate..... Thanks

A baby's birth color is not really his/her true color. Your baby is only attaining her natural color, funny thing is, she might start gettting lighter after a while.

Pls stop using different products on your baby's skin just for her to get lighter. It might have adverse effects later. Whatever your baby's skin color ends up in, she is beautiful like that.

#you can avoid Johnson products for now.

I put my five months plus old baby on her executive chair potty first thing in the morning and at night before her bath.. and I have discovered that she hasn't soiled her diaper with poo for 3 whole weeks..
so I think the earlier the better
I sing, giggle for her just to make her happy and distracted..

Chop knuckles...

It's also very effective to establish a pattern for their body system. Keeping her happy while at it will make her want to sit on it again.

shndy:
Wow, 5mnths? Dats commendable.

Thanks ma'am

goosebumps:
Mama's please help. !!

I will come back to introduce myself shortly but right now I'm distressed.
Gave birth almost 24hrs ago and up till this point there's not a single drop of breast milk.
I have tried pap tea hot liquids etc but nothing. Baby now refuses to latch on cos nothing comes out ndy beautiful bobo is obviously hungry. I'm
almost in tears myself.

What else can I do

Goosebumps, is it flowing now?

Ndo! just keep at it. It will start overflowing soon soiling all ur clothes sef.

Hello Mothers,i just joined Nairaland 2day.
I thank God 4 dis platform.
Please fellow mothers,i have a 10months old son who has not been eating for 2weeks now.he takes only breatsmilk and titus fish(in any form). He refuses his usual pap and takes time 2 swallow.Av bought different types of syrups,treated malaria,antibiotic,multivitamins,nothing was working. Until i noticed he has white patches on his lips and tongue looks different.he refuses me 2 clean his mouth 4 3days now. He only eats cerealac. Though i suspect oral thrush.Pls what do u advice?

You LO mostly likely has oral thrush. Pls get him to see a doctor asap.

Pls avoid extreme self-medication next time. Ur baby's system is too tender for experiments.

Good day sabi mama's. I'm a FTM. I gave birth to my DS on 11th of May. I have an issue and don't know if anyone has gone thru this. After I put to bed, I experienced the normal postpartum bleeding (lochia) and it stopped after 6weeks. Thereafter like a week later, I started bleeding.. I tot it was aunt flo visiting only for the bleeding to become extremely heavy (like filling one pad in less than 30 mins). I went to my doctor and a scan was done to check if there was any retained placenta and there was none. I was given injections and the bleeding subsided only for it to start again after 24hours. I went back and I was given drugs to use and my doc said if it doesn't stop that a D&C wld b done. After the drugs (took it for 2days) the bleeding stopped and I just kept spotting dark Brown discharge (it's sometimes sticky) till recently I started seeing blood spots... to cut the long story short, I hav just been spotting all tru except for one time I didn't spot at all for about 3 days.... but now I bleeding very very lightly (I'm using a liner for it cos it's light ).
This one startd 2days ago. Don't knw if I'm experiencing
hormonal imbalance or what? Sorry for d long story.

If it is gas, Patience please. After 3 months its over. In my case I used infacol a few times but to b honest it didn't work. Ur baby will outgrow it. When bathing baby use hot compress on tummy esp at night. Not too hot fa tor
