Blendy77: Omogemi, she will walk when she's ready to. These babies have their own clock and calender which is different from ours. When my boys didn't sit at 5m, I tot they were late until one day I returned from work and met my smallie sitting down and 2 wks later the bobo was already crawling on his tummy n kneels at intervals. By 6m, he was a fast crawler scattering things everywhere. They know what they are doing jare. His senior bros just keep following behind. At 4m he wasn't even carrying his head and my nannies were always mocking him. I was worried initially till I read a guy's comment here that his son couldn't carry his head at 5m. So these children will always move to their nex level when they are ready.

Hummingbird sorry o! I dey feel u but I don't mind being in ur shoes even with twins cos it means I'll be getting pregnant free of charge. Anyways, babies are special gifts from God. Just get good nannies to help u out. So many of us spent moni to get pregnant and some are still spending with no result so just go and prepare for the newbie and be more careful next time.

Warfibabe: ur baby dey eat all that orishirishi for inside beans alone? The day u try dat with my son na only u go chop the beans I just add oil and crayfish for him and he is good to go.

Jade William:
@omogemi I don't think honey makes children hyperactive.As 4boys bn bigger than girls,I don't knw abt that.It depends on d gene.If a child has tall/big parents,they'l b dat way.I remember my neighbour who's DH is lik 200kg but sh's lik 56kg but d kids took afta d man.Wen my baby was 5.2kg at 6wks,her baby was 8.5kg at 6wks,although his birthweight was 4kg.I was intimidated even til now.They'r so big.So don't let that bother u

corrall:

@Omogemi, abeg, did the b.co syrup work for your baby? Did she add weight? Can my baby start taking the wellkid? Did u see any change in ur baby?. Sorry jare, too many questions.

limsycutey: I've not posted anything in a while but I've been reading all your posts, please keep up the good work mamas!
Does anyone know where I can get original carter's blankets on the mainland, I know where I can get it in lagos island market but can't go with my baby. One of these online stores in lagos asked me to pay 5300 for the pack of two, when I paid 2500 for it in the market, some people don't have any fear of God in them.

blank: Please mothers, let us not get too hysterical. Prednisolone is a strong steriod no doubt but sometimes it can save our children's lives! My fear is that we will start rejecting the drug but it has its uses. I don't know about measles but i know it is an anti-inflammatory drug that can be used to treat asthma, certain skin rashes, bonchial inflammations, allergic reactions, chest infections etc.

It is a very effective drug that can save a kid's life when it is necessary. I have had cause to use it for my son and it worked immediately where others failed. The doctor's are professionals. Let them do their job. It doesnt mean that we just accept their word as law but you can ask them questions and ask for an alternative if you are still uncomfortable.

From what you wrote, the injection was pcm but the prednisolone was given orally?
