Thanks 4 d detailed explanations.
If i may ask pls, whats the essence of d carton, can i sow only d flannel n towel 2geda, since d wipes wil b washed, wount d carton b soaked?
Also, in using d wipes, can i just soak it in water or just only in oil to make it wet?
Pls dont mind my too many questions. Stil tryin to understand.
Thanks alot.

Contem2011 is right, the carton is just for measuring easily. Don't sew the carton inside it please. You can use plain water to clean up but some people feel that they need a bit more cleaning so you mix small soap and coconut oil (which has a lot of nice helpful properties for the skin) in the water and clean. I'll explain more with pics after prayers.

Amen and thank you to Dunamit for starting us off with prayers.
Good morning everyone. Please let's have another word or two of prayer and then start the day.

Good morning all,

Thanks Dunamit for starting the prayer session.
Thanks Onegai for instigating it.

Just a quick one, dunamit can you please amend this section of your prayer "We Thank U Becos We Are Nt In TTC Forum"
It can be read to mean we are more fortunate than them in some way which we are not.

I know you mean well, and i understanĸ what you are trying to say but this part can be worded differently to convey a more inclusive message.


Perhaps you can amend it to

"thank you Lord for the gifts of conception, sound pregnancy and a safe delivery and we pray that our sisters( and brothers) in the TTC and pregnancy forums experience your grace and mercy and join us here soon. "

Thank you Lord for everything. For our lives, for our loved ones, for our children, for the fact that we are here today. We are grateful.

We are sorry for our sins and we come to you repentant. Show us your merciful face, Father.

We welcome you into our hearts today. We pray You perfect everything concerning our little ones. Father, we tremble at the task ahead of bringing up great men and women who work in your sight but You have not given us a heart of fear. Please help us to be good stewards of our children.

We pray for expecting mothers, may they put to bed with ease, may they enter the delivery room and come out with a success story.

We pray for those trying to conceive. Lord, grant them their heart's desire, make them fruitful, put the enemy to shame. We call them "Mothers" because that will be their name soon in Jesus' name.

In these turbulent times, watch over everyone. Grant is our heart's desires according to your wishes. Give healing to those who need it. Help us to take our rightful place in society as Women of Faith and Achievers.

Thank you for always loving us. Thank you, Father. Amen.

comtem2011:


AlphaHandMaiden, under what section should we check for the Tutorial thread?



I am still working on it. NL is not the best at categorizing sections so it will likely go under fashion or education Even though it doesnt really fit in either!

I think there should be an art and craft section on here but hey.

(Ogbeni Seun, please review and open one for us crafters abeg)

Modification: I may just put it in the general section. Will let you all know when its up and running. If you have any ideas to the best section please let me know.

Amen dunamit! Thanks for the prayer.

Onegai so true about the cerelac the "naija" one is very sugary! That you will feel the crystals when stirring sef.
Well-done mama I'm all for DIY! Very good thing you and AlphahandMaiden is doing God bless.

Good morning Babythug, Zemaye and Tojued, Evamum and any other mamas with new babies. How goes it?

LiftesHands and ocyzy, DrAda shared here that Peak123 milk was very sugary. Imagine combining it with Nigerian Cerelac and then expecting a weaning baby not to complain when offered Nigerian food (which is savoury and not sweet). I remember in my lactation class our facilitator told us there was no such thing as "Follow-Up milk" for toddlers, that it was a marketing gimmick by companies to sell regular whole milk to children, add sugar and rack up the price from normal milk. Your toddler can drink Dano Full cream or any Fill cream or whole milk.

Can you exchange it? Try to. But your baby should be able to drink it as long as you can finish it before next month's export date. Buying expired milk happens to everyone due to tiredness or just plain human nature. Don't beat yourself up.

So I read a bit more on the painting for kids. It's to encourage Sensory Development. It is actually encouraged as part of Tummy Time (for babies who cry when they are placed down, the paints should distract them and keep them on their tummies).
It's a very simple recipe for edible paint: corn flour, water and good colouring. Or you can try and buy some.

http://www.candokiddo.com/news/2015/1/14/fingerpainting-for-babies

How to make: use the corn flour and make pap. When you've made the pap, add food colouring. That's it.
Be warned, your child will run it on herself and you, so this is a no-clothes activity.

I add a bit of salt, garlic and ginger, you can try cinnamon and nutmeg. I read recipes online that were boilng fruits like Apple with chicken and turkey, I tried it and it was delicious. We don't use Maggi so I have a lot of spices (regular, Chinese and Indian spices).

Anyone else interested in buying books should please indicate. We are trying to share the costs and quantity as 50 books is quite a lot for most of us.

So I spoke to a friend who recommended Kachifo, www.kachifo.com for buying indigenous books. This is something I am passionate about, encouraging and supporting our own. Please also take a look at them. I know Cassava republic, www.cassavarepublic.biz also sells books for kids by Nigerian writers. Chinese kids read their authors, Austrian kids read their authors, in addition to our foreign books, let's read our local guys. Thanks.

thanks for d reply, what I mean is dat d bombom has a reddish scar like nla and the poo was greenish in color and something like catarrh

Green poop = baby not getting hind milk, or intestinal infection

Mucus in poop = breast fed baby drooling probably because of teething issues, or serious infection

Nappy rash = poop that has mucus easily leads to nappy rash if not wiped on time.

Just prepare it the normal way u prepare custard, in order for it to be properly done u can steam it a bit but not stay too long on fire cos it can turn to swallow. also make sure its not too thick. sorry for not replying on time ma.

Lol, i was joking. Thank you so much. Small confession: I don't know how to make custard. I can make pap, but not custard. It is always watery. I can cook a lot of things but not custard. I have tried all my life, i can even pound yam but not custard. I cannot explain it. lipsrsealed grin
