Good day to d mamas in the house. Pls I need a suggestion on WHAT and HOW to brush my 1year old baby's mouth. I've used gryciline bt my baby wl use his 7teeth to hold d cotton wool and won't lemme clean his tongue. I used tongue brush and tooth paste, same thing. Pls is there a better way to do it? My friend who is also a first time mom like me sed her mother adviced that she shdnt brush her baby's mouth until he's 3yrs old to avoid mouth odour bt my concern is dt my baby's tongue is white and am I suppose to leave it like dt?

You can continue with my boy for her milk but chill till 6 months before she starts cerelac. There are other cereals for babies from 4-6 months. My baby took Gerber rice cereal for 4-6 months. There's also heinz, cow and gate. When you go shopping, check the age written on the tin before u pick anyone.

it anywher in nigeria,pls advice me on which formula to try please mama advice me I beg u


If you baby is okay, just keep an eye on the poop might just be something you ate, if you are both BF and formula feeding. Also check your hygiene and how you sterilise baby's bottle. To change formula you have to try a particular formula to see how your baby likes it. You can get a small can of SMA gold and see if he likes it. Also, Nan is there too. These formula are imported, cost effective and readily available. You can also try similac advance, cow and gate also available in nigeria in big supermarkets.

Ok change the formula and see how his poop is. Don't buy in bulk. Just buy a little and try it with him see if he accepts it.

Color of his poop
Amount
Does is contain "cataarh" or mucus
How often does he poop
