@juwonesho, in addition to what other mamas have said, ensure that his diaper is not too tight especially in the side of the leg that he was given the immunization

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

Yes o it really helped, tried it and he is actually sleeping better now, thanks a lot. I will do it again tomorrow. The steam tingy can I do it as often as I feel or just once a day?

ela is a fungal infection n it it mostly attacks babies a lot. d ori oyo is good but if u can get original coconut oil n use with it too.
try n get the leaf for ela n boil n bath him with it, its d best remedy for ela. where do u stay? someone planted d leaf in my area. i could help u with it if u live around.
u could also get tribact n use with d ori oyo for faster results but its not compulsory.

Cerelac is a cereal, while eldorine is milk. Make d cereal light nt thick, n cont breastfeeding it will normalise. Ow old is d baby? Just giv lil water too since zino has started solids.
