Please could you share how you found which clothes are made of better quality at PEP? I've gone there once and it seemed like everything was rather flimsy.
D variety of clothing u see depends on the PEP store u go to. But the fact still remains that the products are substandard even the shoes.
Now this doesn't mean u cant use it for long, its all in how frequently its worn n wash.

Yet to see a difference between PEP and Mr Price grin Both are low-cost shops and the size of their clothes are not standard baby clothing size. I couldn't even get varieties, went to the shop on Allen and Berger. But there's a Dubai shop in Ikeja city mall that sells baby clothes, they have lovely clothes that are affordable (dubai tinz grin). Though am yet to buy from them (na window shopping i go do there).

***Modified*** I love to shop because i like to look good and i want same for my daughter. looking good no mean say the clothes must be pricey but most importantly the clothes shouldn't be tacky.

There's always a feeding chart/guide on the tin of the formula.start with small quantities and work ur way up cos your baby might not drink much @ 1st. As for sterilizing, I use cold water sterlizer, buy milton tablets and follow instructions written on it, you can also buy electric sterilizer if you wish. But why not consider introducing solids to your baby, I am guessing you will still be breastfeeding.
thanks for your advice. yea,I'm doing exclusive for her ,though I'm rounding up in a few days. I've starting putting little food in her mouth so she can get different food taste. will be soaking corn for pap by weekend.

just make sure the floor is neat and no water or slippery substance on the floor and leave him to play and crawl with toys but keep an eye on him, I think most houses are tiled these days, so feel free

Uwc dear. It actually depends on u. I think from 6months a baby needs minimum of 600ml milk daily. So even if u start start solid u should give milk inbetween.

My son stopped taking milk from bottle at 6months so I make sure 90% of his cereal needs addition of milk.

Also are u still breastfeeding?

Mzora:
@nita2013 thanks much..will do as u have said.pls how many times should I give the 60ml?
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by bims87(f): 6:13pm On Aug 26, 2015
Nita2013:
U can start with 60ml and study how she takes it and as time goes by, u can increase d quantity . Also u can sterilise her feeders regularly.

For me, I used his sterilizin unit only twice tru out my son used bottles. But I made sure I washed his feeding bottles myself and refrigerate afterwards.



Pls,is that another way of sterilising?

Ma'am, you can also get him crawling knee pad, it's about N700. This will help with better grip on the tiles which can also be sometimes very cold.

Good evening dear people. Thank you so much @ifefunmi, i was at hamkad yesterday, i was able to make my findings and register my baby there so will use there for her from now for her medicals and immunisations its way cheaper than the hospital i was using before.
Pls dear mothers, i want to introduce formula to my baby soon pls what are the things i should look out for in a good formula product. Also is it normal to still be having lil postpartum spotting after 7 weeks i'm getting scared its taking too long. Thanks people

This happened to my daughter too, use a clean clothe to wipe it and put drops of BM into the eye. Works wonders my dear. But if it persists then see an optician.

Hello great mothers.. my Son has had this cough for 2 months now and it disturbs at night. He wakes up from sleep coughing and vomitting. I've used several antibiotics which reduces it but it increases again some days after I stop d antibiotics. I've given him so many bottles of cough syrups which never works until d doc said I shud stop it. What native or herbal can I use 4 him as am tired of antibiotics it's becoming too much for him. Pls I need help on any known native or herbal combinations that work and is not harmful to him. I've also been treating a very stubborn malaria every month now that even quinine cannot stop. God help mothers. It is well. Pls I need ur response. Thanks in advance.

I just started formular for my baby(few days to 4 months) this night becos recently,he wakes me up about 5 times to suck.I started with 90ml but he drank only about 50mls and fell asleep.I hope he won't wake often to suck tonyt.

Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by mitche15: 11:41pm On Aug 26, 2015
Babies change from time to time, I guess its the new pattern....... Does your baby always need to suck to go back to sleep? It may not be hunger u'know? I heard even teething can change a baby's sleep pattern even though its a too early in ur case. Your LO might just be seeking more attention from u. Whatever the case is, chest am my sister, it won't last forever.

Thanks all 4 ur responses
@dunnybaby26 yes I always make sure I complete d dosage. I just got honey some days back and started giving him so il watch how it goes.

@ FINA4804, I currently give him the one as from 12 months (honey wheat with milk). Occasionally I still give him mixed fruits with wheat & milk. I think that one is from 8 months or so. I guess I'll need to check well what's really causing d cough. Or cud it be d cerelac? I doubt though.

@Rashomo il try and start giving the honey and warm water more frequently as i give honey only once a while. Was feeling skeptical to give it dat often because of its sweetness.
