1) I didn't bathe with "special" hot water for a day. Just my normal warm water bathing.

2) I think about 2 weeks plus or minus if I remember correctly. But you might continue to see droplets when you take long walks or engage in strenuous activities.

What were you using to clean it or applying on it before it became swollen? Since it's swollen, pls go see ur pediatrician.

If it were only the white discharge, clean droplets of bm would have helped but since it's now swollen, the Dr needs to have a look.

I'm really sorry @ayobarmy

This was how we discovered that my last child, David, had a serious medical condition during one of our regular visits to a certain Dr. Akeem Anifowose who is a General practitioner with specialty in Preventive healthcare. He was the director of operations at Apple tree Clinic Canada, and was very helpful and instrumental in helping me keep a healthy family.

Dr. Anifowose has great experience in the medical field after studying and practicing in Canada & Europe. He was very helpful in recommending an expert, who talked with us and advised us on what to do. And even after he had referred us, Dr. Anifowose still kept in touch, encouraging us with his kind words. “It was critical we detected the disease early,” said the expert as that increased my boy’s chances of defeating the ailment.

Now, my boy is doing great. Thankfully, Dr. Anifosowe is moving back to Nigeria to continue his practice & contribute his quota to the development of Africa. He’s definitely a doctor i can recommend to help you and your wife though I don't have his recent contact in Nigeria except for this mail info@kleinburgmedical.com.

@ proudmom38, my mum insisted on the hot water bathing/pressing, she siad it was reallly necessary for FTM. Even the matron at hospital gave the same advice. Though they said 3months, i did it for 2 months. For d bleeding, i had it for 6 weeks.

Don't use too hot water o....so u don't get that roughened tummy look . Hot tea and cereal also has the same effect.

I dint do the hot water press o. They gave me some drip stuff in the hospital that helped pass a lot of the blood and I took hot tea a lot. My mom was dismayed!!!! But exercise and eating right helped get my tummy back in no time

I used sitz bath and warm water with some liquid they gave me at the clinic for my vjay
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by Nobody: 9:59pm On Aug 24, 2015
@proudmom, I didn't use hot water to massage my body oo..just my regular warm water for bathing morning and evening, but I had lochia for almost 4 weeks..I even did my sit bath for just 5days, no time jare and i'm fit again except that my tommy is still dark(dunno what to di about that)

@joyousf, I didn't get the 1kg sized cerelac in that pharmacy and getting two small ones doesnt pay financially so I got it elsewhere. I heard twins pharmacy along iyin road after Fajuyi park also sell genuine stuffs.

Honestly, I didn't do anything. But I started slight abs workout after 4 months. Asides that, nothing o and my tummy is flatter than ever now. I don't believe in hot water baths.
