Tnks i tot as much. But d problem is dat she does not like takin water despite d fact dat she love adult food nd u knw i cnt give her food without water. So my hands re tight
What if I say ur the cause of her low weight. Pls give her the adult food she likes but make it softer than urs and also give her fruits like Banana, pear, and avocado to help soften her poo. Then use a sipy cup to give her water even if its small you can try often. My baby 6mths old baby loves pear a lot and it has always help in terms of her poo

jboixxx: Hello mums & dads in da house! Please, can one feed 9mths old LO blended Q Oats? What's your take on adding Glucose D to his meals too? He's my first child, so kinda new to baby care/meals. Thanks
Yes. Oats can be giving to babies from six months. According to wholesome babyfood, oats cereals is beter than rice receals in regards to constipation. For Glucose D, I think u should not give him unless medically adviced to do so or do you have a particular reason you want to add it to his meal?

you can buy her a soother. also at this stage, you must be extremely careful about stuffs around her cos she will tend to use anything she sees to rub her gums.

what can of food is she one? baby or adult or combination of both? constipation in baby fed is majorly caused by not giving adequate water after feeding and at intervals during the day

Hello dear. You need to be detailed so we don't tell you the wrong thing. What are you currently feeding your baby? How long has she being constipated. How many months is your baby?

thank u Zik...

can we start feeding her milo when she clocks 6month?
I don't knw much about milo, I use ovaltine 4 my kids. From 6 months up.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by lovinam: 10:26pm On Aug 08, 2014
Hmmmm. You need to see her ped. How thick do you make the cereal? That could be a factor. Keep giving her the orange juice. Pls not the packet juice but freshly squeezed orange juice. 10baby spoons of it should make her poop well. Well if you are near shoprite or any maajor supermarket look for prunes puree. Either from purity foods or gerber. It can make ur baby poo

This MIGHT be prickly heat rash. Does s/he has it anywhere else or just the neck region? Search for pityriasis (Tinea) versicolor-the literatures & pics to know more about "Eela". If you're sure its Eela, do as advised in d earlier post, though my paed advised against the use of mycostatin. She recommended lamisil for 5wks (about 1600/tube) & advised we mix baby tribotan with sheabutter b4 use later (if we wish to use it at all). I used lamisil & mashed d leaf attached with his/her soap (remove the thorns first). MyAdviseOnly, as what works for my son might not for your LO.

@favoredgal
As already said, its eczema, if baby tribotan doesn't work, try sudocream. If u hv extra virgin coconut oil, mix with ori and use on her. Never agreed on d wonder of coconut oil + ori, until I started using it on my son, I add jojoba oil to my mixture.

@honey
My son loves adult food, especially eba+draw soup, he had constipation for two weeks even though he takes lots of fruit puree and oranges, nothing helped until I read that coconut oil helps, I tried it, the rest is history. He is 8months so pls read to know if ur baby can take it shd he/she not be up to 8months.

@jboixxx
It's only on her neck. The pharmacist said it's heat rashes, because she isn't raising her neck up fully yet. So sweat gathers on the neck folds and irritates the skin.

Will continue with the baby tribotan then explore the other suggestions if it doesn't work

Thanks

U can opt for Agnesia powder if it's rashes. Check her scalp too cuz Eela do affects scalps. If (some part of) her scalp is whitish, then u myt av to treat Eela alongside.
