shndy: If you are spoon feeding cereal, add as much milk to get the right consistency. You are right, thr is nothing like too much milk. I make my own puddings, purees,smoothies. The only things i buy now r just formula and cereal. I'll suggest not adding milk to fruit puree, just let your baby get accustomed to the taste of fresh fruits. You can sometime add milk and bottle feed as smoothie. |

FexCathy: You can scoop it into a plate or f-bottle as long as what you are using can stay on hot water to warm. I use the f - bottle, place it on hot water to warm, use a spoon to stir very well - then start feeding. I scoop half of the bottle and refrigerate the other half tightly closed, cos with me my DD doesn't take the full bottle but takes it full with her caregivers. So what they do is dip the cow and gate bottle in hot water to warm, stir well and feed her straight from the bottle with a spoon. |

Hello mums. My 7weeks old have been vomiting alot after every feed. And she suddenly starts crying during feeding like she is in pain or something. She is exclusively on BM. Pls what could be wrong? |
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by desiree(f): 3:52pm On Aug 01, 2015 |
nefertitiram: Johnsons products all over the world has lots of parabens which causes allergic reactions in babies. Aveeno is 100% better. Yes, Aveeno is made by Johnsons and Johnsons but it is more natural. |

g FINA4804: Sorry but I think a lot of things attributed to "original product" or not, mistakenly. I bought my Johnson's baby wash in the US (walked into the store myself), my sis went to UK and got the exact type too, her boys had no problem with it and Baby E developed a rash all over her face and neck, spreading to her body. Sensitive skin is sensitive skin, people react differently to everything. "oh this is more original because it was made in so-and-so country" isn't always the case (formulations must be the same, especially with children's products in a better country with legal address to lawsuits like SA, USA and UK). Let me dust off my Science degree Johnson Baby wash has an ingredient called Sodium Laureth Sulphate (SLS) which is a cleansing agent but some people find it very drying (ask any girl who has natural hair, they avoid it in their shampoos; which is why most use conditioner to wash hair as SLS is in most shampoos. it will dry out your kid's hair as well). SLS is a popular cleansing agent. Aveeno switched SLS with Sodium Lauroamphoacetate (a milder cleansing agent), which is why it's less drying. That's one of the things that make Aveeno milder, but its not organic. I've seen organic baby wash in Lagos (Pharmacare in Festac and some shops on the island especially in Lekki) have them. sorry for the long story. @Desiree, you use black soap as laundry detergent and puree fruits? That's interesting, will make a note of it. You sound like a "crunchy" organic mama o, will have to get tips from you 4 Likes |

The Johnson I bought in the USA and the one I bought in South Africa are completely different. The only thing that was similar was the packaging That said you are right some babies skin is more sensitive. I used aveeno and had no issues with it and when the aveeno I had ran out I switched to the Johnson I got as part of my baby shower in the USA and had no issues with it So bought some more when I went to SA and that did not go down well 1 Like |

favoredgal: You might want to read this report from the US or read about it on baby center.com I tried Johnson' s as a first time mum, when I didn't know any better. The result was disastrous. https://www.truthinaging.com/review/johnson-johnson-baby-lotions-have-high-risk-profile 1 Like |

Onegai: I don't make my own laundry detergent oooo!! Lol I wish I could. You are right abt Aveeno not being natural. I doubt if anything made commercially can be natural because you would have to consider preservatives, PH adjusters and stabilisers, some of which are toxins. Aveeno is the better of the two products. I make most my baby food actually but I aint crunchy, otherwise I would be cloth diapering and baby wearing. My baby is on the big side. He weighs 8kg at 4 months 1 week. I try to go as organic as I can for this LO.

jam04: I don't know what u mean by babies reacting to the mother's milk intake. what most people complain about is gas. my baby had it. even cry sometimes before passing gas. my paed didn't ask me to stop taking milk. just that it will pass |

desiree: I use cloth wipes and I'm going to cloth diaper once Baby E reaches the right weight. I even make my own hair and body creams and wanted to whip up homemade diaper cream. Remain small for me to start growing my own veggies and fruits. Sigh Thanks for the links, will look it up |

desiree: I actually saw somewhr online that lotions are not to be used on baby's skin. Will post the when i see it again. Nevertheless, perhaps other Johnson products (head.to toe wash, etc) may be good enough. I bought the Johnson set for $10, and aveeno goes for $20, soup wey sweet... hummnn Modified...
