Good day mothers. ..how are the LOs?
Please can I start using a soft tootbrush for my 9months old baby? she has Eight teeth now and I used the baby tongue brush and Cotton wool with paste to clean her teeth before now but I feel it's no longer doing the intended job.

Morning mums, my 7 months+ baby is teething,one out already,2nd almost...thing is she's had an increased temp for 3days in a row...been giving her pcm 8 hourly..temp reduces for abt 2-3 hrs then high again,then cold compress in btw..called a doc friend he advised i treat for malaria using crushed coartem tablet ..anyone done this before? Still her usual active self,appetite mildly reduced.Pls what do u think?(N.B;out of base for now)

Take your baby to the hospital. It's likely malaria. Or you can also go by your doc friend advice and give the coartem tabs for babies. There's one for 3mths and above. The tabs worked for my DS when he was 6mths and had malaria.

Jst took a picture of the rashes ii talked abt and tot to share.

stop everything you are putting on the baby! Just clean baby down with warm water and oil with olive oil for now. Even to change diapers. Please make sure you take baby to his paed and I'll try and see if I can ask. a dermatologist tomorrow to tell us what to do (I hope he answers me).

How old is baby and how long have rashes been?

Pele. That looks bad.

modath:




I am of two minds...

1. Wait it out, it may be scary but if princess has malaria, she wouldn't be playing & the temmp will stay up, if you can remember how sprouting wisdom teeth felt like, you'd be able to get how baby is feeling..

2. Since you can't do a test to rule out presence of malaria parasite in blood & not likely to have a thermometer to check if the temp gets to 38 degrees or more, do you want to give it as prophylactic care ?

One other thing, has she began to crawl?

Cc ; tchwinnie, lovinam , firsttymum , kaffy4bill , abeg make una help torchlight am. Thx.

Thanks Modath...she has started crawling, he said coartem tabs i thot he was referring to the adult tablets,didnt know babies hv their own tablets...will wait it out as u suggested..she's as vibrant as usual...hmmm dat thermometer u mentioned,Kizluv begged me to buy o..ijebu no gree me drop 35$

Madam,she needs water o,breastmilk is no substitute for water once u stop exclusive.keep giving her wt a spoon at close intervals..my baby didnt take water @ all for abt 3weeks after i stopped exclusive...it was war o..if u force her she wont swallow,after crying wld just pour everything out...constipation is real..after 1 week of not pooing and always grunting,I had to beg my mum to come administer enema..i had bluntly refused before cos i read its not so safe for babies...thats how we got by for 3weeks till she started taking water and fruits o..u can also try using a dropper to give her water

For all mama's on this Sebamed issue, I just asked a Clinical dermatologist and he said Sebamed is imported legally into the country by only one company and always has a NAFDAC number. So Sebamed with Arabic on it may be sourced from other sources and it is upto the parent to decide which they want to buy, he personally recommends his patients buy Sebamed from reputable pharmacies.

*Babe Info Update*

I asked my Person & was told u should go ahead & treat for malaria... that children are resilient & don't show symptoms on time...

That high temp that persists for more than 3 days is likely to be more than teething pain & even if it is for prophylactic care, he is concurring with ya doc...

Said its 1 tablet 2× a day for 3 days...


* Apologies for the initial Iya Alagbo advice*


N.B... The crawling question is to do with watching teething crawling babies closely so that they don't use anything they find to soothe their gums, then don't pick up abdominal bugs & start pooing...

I got thermometer here @1,500 , a nor get money to dash oyinbo too..

But you can't give baby bobby that is infected nah...

Wean him, 7 months is not too little, you are lucky he already eats adult food, so there won't be much battle...

This is more common than you can imagine. Check google. It's the positioning and the comfort.

What I did was to pump the other booobs cuz my daughter too was like that, but u can keep trying, eventually some children take both

If you use soap on his face, please stop it for now and watch, just use only water and don't rub anything on hos face at all. This appears on my baby's face anytime soap or even foam touches his face while bathing.
