Danzak I answered you the last time and I was banned.
I bought and use the capsules so I don't know how other mamas used the powdered form. But you need about 5000mg of fenugreek in a day to boost your supply. So if you can measure 5000mg from the powder, you can mix it with tea or a drink.

Thanks dear, that will really help. But come o, where u banned becos you answered me and why is day?.

Good day mamas,
Pls i'm not yet a mum, still a member of the preggie thread but due dis dec. I need some recommendations from experienced mamas here and hope i can be helped.
Almost done with my shopping but i havent got toiletries for lo. I initially planned using pure coconut oil and shea butter for his skin wit johnson soap but dh has refused. Says he wants his baby to smell nice and all that as he hates the smell of shea butter. Right nw, i'm at a loss on which product would be nice for lo's soap, cream, powder, hair oil etc. Pls i really need suggestions of a good product that wont cause him any reactions nd keep his skin supple.
Secondly, i need advice on daipers too. During shopping, i saw dis large molfix daipers mini , cnt recall how many inside but it goes for about 4k. Says it can be used from 0-6months. Pls is it a good choice to start with as per quality and size?

Cc onegai, zaynie, soonest, britneystacy, mitchyy, rofemiguwa and all mamas.
Thanks.

My child seems to have sensitive skin, we use Dove Pure &Sensitive soap but it's really hard to find. Try Dove classic perhaps. Johnsons gave quite a few babies rashes and it's pricey. For lotions, I dunno. I cannot tell what is original and what is fake. Olive oil doesn't have a smell and is very good for the skin. Diapers, we used cloth diapers and some disposables. I'm a bit concerned that the same size of diaper will fit a baby perfectly from newborn to 6 months, as that is the fast-growing age and babies normally go from Newborn to sizes 1 and 2. I wonder how they manage to fit a tiny baby into the same size as a 4 month old?

Gosh I wish I remembered. I think you should mix formula according to how you normally mix (ie one scoop for 30ml of water) first, make the formula and then add cereal. Use your eyes to judge if the cereal is too thick or too runny. There should be instructions at the back of the can of cereal.


Tnx a bunch for your response. I will look into that.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by maamee01(f): 4:48pm On Dec 10, 2016

You might have to go with the instruction on the tin at first. Watch out for constipation, if it pops up reduce the cereal by one scoop.

Okay thanks dearie.

Why are you surprised? All these babies being born now are Ajekpakos. We gave Baby E eba and soup, she started eating the eba without soup. I kid you not. We gave her Semo, Poundo yam, Pounded yam, she would eat it as long as it hadn't touched soup. Imagine how confused we were! At least she is saving us cost of soup ingredients.
