@lamdec dentinox is also used to treat colic. it worked for my baby when she didn't respond to infacol. hw is ur baby doing? have u been to ur doctor?
Ok thanks, I will keep the drug in mind. My baby is getting better but throughout yesterday he was just restless and fussy, but since last night he has been calm. I haven't gone to see the doctor yet...cash restrains but will go this weekend cos I have lot of complains, his diaper rash is not going, to me it's getting worse and with blisters. I am using a zinc oxide and white petroleum based cream like sudocream but it's another brand and it's seems not to be working.

God will provide for you dear. About the diaper rash, I think u should change his diaper, probably he is reacting to the one he is using at the moment and also don't let diaper stay too long in his bum bum, once it's very wet or once he poos, change immediately. My baby never had diaper rash and I don't use any rash cream or even valentine or powder, I only rub coconut oil there in the mrg after bathe. But I change his diaper on time.

Yes. Baby tribotan works well and faster than sudocreme. My baby's diaper rash too looked raw with blisters but it cleared the rashes within 4days.

A baby boy has been left blind in one eye after a
family friend allegedly took a close-up
photograph without turning off the flash.
According to Peoples Daily Online, the three-
month-old baby, who has not been named
suffered irreparable damage from the flash of
the camera, which was held about 10 inches
away from the baby boy. The parents were said
to have noticed that there was something wrong
with their baby’s vision soon after the photograph
was taken.
DailyMailUK added that aside from the right eye
that went blind, the baby also had a reduced
vision in his left eye.The damage is said to bear
permanent and cannot be fixed with surgery.
Experts say that the strong flash has damaged
cells on the macula, which is the part of the eye
where incoming light rays are focused.
Damage to the macula can lead to the loss of
central vision, which allows people to see
straight ahead. The macula is not fully
developed until children are four, meaning
youngsters are very sensitive to strong light.
According to research, babies will shut their eyes
when exposed to light on reflex, just milliseconds
of strong light can cause permanent damage. It
is not clear whether the family friend will face
any legal action following the incident. Copied from naij.com, pls mothers take note

Pls don't introduce all at 1ce, so u ll know if she reacts 2 ny1. U can introduce 1 in 2wks. And rice based cereals is easily digestible dan wheat.

Ella was d lightness of her face. Though she is light in complexion, her cheeks were extremely lighter dan d rest of her face. D change of skin, was large dry patches on her back. After I googled it, saw it was noting serious, just kept rubing d Shea butter. D dry patches later peeled off by itself n all d skin blended.

I AF come again with my comlain grin
So I kind of regret (small) that I allowed my twin boy suck his thumb. But acutaLly anytime he sucks, I get to concentrate on his really over attachy sister and now my boy is sooo used to it that in d middle of fEeding he pushes the breas,t away and slips in his thumb.
That one by the side.
Now his thumbs are charred, white with red blisters anD I think it pains him Too.

I tried all methods to make him 'rest' the thumb a bit. From bitterleaf to plasters to mittens and even wrapping him. D boy go suck anything o, chew d mitten till its soaked, start rolling everywhere when wrapped etc.

One mama told me that I should make sure he is full with every feeding so the sucking will reduce. It did work-for sometime. But once he eats till he's about to exlode, he falls sleepy and when I put him down to sleep- in goes the thumb.

Any other remedy
Pls
And I've googled it. But NA oyinbo method dem put.
