Now this is just my opinion,I'm not critisizing mums who r exclusively breastfeedin o,u guys rock,it can't be easy doin that for 6mnths and den continuing to 9-12mnths
I think most ppl use it as a method of FP.My cousin doesn't c her period as long as d baby's stil breastfeedin so sh breastfeeds for 2yrs even afta weanin d child.I so wish my body system was lik dat.I'l breastfeed for 4yrs walai cos if u no c period,belle no go happen

Zentel is tablet. Just crush the recommended dose in water and feed him.
I dewormed my 2nd son at 6 months cos that is the norm in his hospital.
For my first son, i did it at 1.5yrs cos i did not know better. Now, i do it every 3 months.

Warfibabe: hello mum.. I know some peeps think it is not necessary but have you tried massaging his navel with hot water?(Not burning hot o!) My older son was that way until my mum pointed out that their navels takes time to close up and heal after the cord has fallen off, that I was suppose to massage and use the baby mentholata till three months. I did that to my son and the whole crying, wriggling, grunting everything stopped. With my newborn I am still doing it and it is working fine for me.
It is well with us o!
.@Warfibabe,U're right.That was what I did for my baby too.It worked for her.

tjskii: @itsmelex abeg free d pikin,he don loose interest,same thing happened wth my 1st kid,he rejected breasttmilk at 4mnths,I jejely left him,cos I had alredy planned dt I wud wean him at 3mnths sef(na my mumsy hold me till d 4mnths sef),all dose plenty talk bout breastfeedinn d pikin for lik 9mnths no dey enter my ear,cos d argument dt kids are brainier and all dat wen thyr xclusivl breastfed dosnt convince me,all dose oyinbo pikin wey dem no dey even breastfeed nko,and they end up being very sharp and creative,compare and contrast to most naija pikins dt they even breastfeed til 2yrs sef(wey d pikin go dey lift himm mama blouse hiself),I just believe dt if ur kid is naturally intelligent and u giv him d best education u can,thhen that child will do well,irresppectiv of whether or not he was breastfed

Thank u for dis talk.My sister can argue y non EBF children do poorly in life&s**t&her talk irritates me cos me,I was not breastfed at al cos afta my mum had me,sh left me 4granny&went 2sch in UK yet I was d one carryin 1st position in dat house&my parents say I'm a well trained girl.Sh dat was breastfed is so hot&quick tempered?inshort if I say sh's d blacksheep of d family,its an understatement yet sh was breastfed o.
My sister wil so abuse anyone not doin exclusive fOr 6mths&site al d useles ppl in life dat turned out d way they ar because they were not EBF.I kept prayin 2God 2change her story until it happened lastmth;her newborn who's abt 4mths refused 2suck again.My mum had 2introduce pap 2d poor boy at 3mths.I said chei! U c how God shut ppl up.I'v bn askin her if d boy wil b useless because he wasn't exclusively breastfed for 6mths&sh said for dat reason,sh'l giv d best of milk.Sh bought Emfamil for 8k&me I'm yabbin her dat stil Emfamil is not breastmilk.Abeggi joor
