Good morning mamas,

Am a FTM and trying to shop for my baby. Please advise me. Does the baby really need a cot or can I buy this Graco play yard that has a sleeping bassinet.
2. For how long can the baby use an infant car seat? Please mamas I need your response cos I want to take advantage of the black friday deals on amazon next tmrw.
Infant car seat differ. And d weight limit is stated.
Baby cot depends on the baby or parent.
My baby sleeps in his cot... But I know some mothers whose baby won't sleep there. I have a wooden cot in naija. But I had to buy graco cot so he starts sleeping in there... Which he's been doing. At least pending when I'm back in naija.

Please mamas, I need your help. My one-year-old has been stooling since yesterday, four times yesterday and three times today already. She normally stools once, in the morning, daily. What can I do apart from giving her ORS? Thank you.

Is it watery poo?

Maybe a few teaspoons of garri water or a tea spoon of raw pap may help to stop the runny stool.

Also don't give her milk till the stool firms up!

Not watery but has some cattarh-like stuff in it, at times the stool will be much, other times it will be really small. I will stop milk for now. Thanks so much.

No, but I plan on including it in the ORS. Thank you mama.

It's a bit too early for colic IMO. It is possible he's not getting enough bm in the 1st place hence the *incessant* crying and sucking.

He may also be generally uncomfortable with the environment which could cause lack of sleep! although generally at that age they don't sleep much. How many layers of clothes is he wearing? Is the room airy(shouldn't be too cold or windy oh)?

If you're extremely concerned by his not pooing maybe you should see a Dr.

Pele and welcome to the vigilante club wink

The difference buying abroad (cot + shipping ) and buying in Nigeria is about 40k. If you are not due in the next 3 months, I will advise you ship as you can use the extra cash for other things

Thanks for the prompt response. What I mean is, his aptamil 1 just finished and he'll be 6months in 6 days time. If I buy the aptamil 1, he wont finish it in one week that's why I'm considering buying aptamil 2 even though he is not exactly 6 months.

6 days of taking aptamil 2 when he isn't '6months' yet is not that much of a big deal

If you flip it too taking aptamil 1 till the tin finishes even though he is already '6 months' is not that much of a big deal too

Your choice

I know how it feels, its well sis
Steam inhalation wit silverbird or mentholatum helps relieve the congestion(add silver bird or mentholatum int a bowl or bucket of hot water and cover u both wit a blanket or cloth,pls b careful to avoid burns/spillage). U can apply shea butter(ori) to his chest and nose bridge after the inhalation and u can also use towel to mop his chest wit warm water b4 applying the ori.
Hope dis helps
Oda mamas wil contribute too
