We gave crayons to the children here and asked them "What do you call Mummy?". So they created this lovely sign. And the kids said that their Mummies were 10/10 in their eyes! So from Today all through Tuesday, please take 10% off our entire catalogue. Happy Mother's Day.

(Shout out to the Mums who also speak their language to their kids!! Can you identify which language each one is?)

The sugar should work.

For the catarrh, just keep giving her vitamin c and make her warm baths, that should help.
Sometimes I give Atinuke pcm with the vitamin c and the nose stays dry all day.

Hello Wonderful mamas.how is it going? chai.is not easy.pls i have a question to ask .is it possible to skip a night or two breastfeeding.(my baby is 3months and 7days today)am depressed and want to go and see my mum for a day or two.

WambyDiapers:


Correct! Could you please tell us yours, because tomorrow all over Instagram, we are going to post as many dialects of "Mother". We have quite a number of foreign readers and followers for our blog and the page and it's time they learn something new

Mizbaby:
Hello lovely mamas, pls assist me. I'm an ftm, its just me, hubby and baby o, no mum or mil to assist me here. Ds has very dry skin, I took him to the paediatrician and was told to use eucerin and bathe him with very little soap. I had already ordered for Cetaphil, I have bought the eucerin but plan to use the cetaphil when it finishes because the on the eucerin it says avoid contact with eyes and ds rubs his face and eyes a lot.

Please who has used Cetaphil baby wash and shampoo and Cetaphil moisturizing oil, is it very good for dry skin. We are in Alberta, Canada and the weather here is extremely dry.

MamaOO:

My baby had all you mentioned plus more: dry skin, cradle cap that terrorized me (it was BAD!!!!), eela that scrapped all his hair, plus baby eczema (he will scratch and scratch!) What helped a bit was Aveeno Oatmeal bath (calmed his skin flares down a bit) and also Aquaphor.

But all these just kept his skin condition at bay, if I stop for one day or two, it will come back with a vengeance! At a point I got desperate and asked my sister to buy me agbo when she's coming to the US. I was that desperate. I don't give him to drink o. I just bathe him with it everyday. I don't towel him after and just slither on Aquaphor immediately. Before the water dries off his skin. And in two weeks his skin became clear! And I have even stopped using the steroids his ped prescribed him for his skin. If you have anybody coming from Naija just have them bring it for you and pray that the overzealous USCIS or what they call them in Canada don't seize it.

In the meantime you can buy the big tub of Aquaphor. I think it's $22USD on Amazon. Use it morning and night. Then stop bathing him everyday. Bathe him at most 3times a week. Cos bathing then all the time strips their already dry skin of the oils needed for moisturizing. His pediatrician told me to stop bathing him everyday. Get the. aveeno Oatmeal bath too and use it to make a paste and slather it in his skin before bath. Put some in his bath water too.

That's almost 7hrs of sleep without feeding. In my opinion, a 5 weeks old baby shouldn't sleep that long without taking in food. I think you should always try to wake him up if its becoming a regular thing. He should feed at most every 3-4hours. More experienced mamas will shed more light

zaynie:




He's too young to sleep that long.
Did you put breast in his mouth and he refused?
But if this is the first time or afterwards he was awake for a longer while than usual, then it's fine. But if he is always sleep or feeling drowsy, you might want to let your Paed know at the 6th week postpartum clinic.

rofemiguwa:


Nne please kindly tell me measurement of the sugar.how many tsp u use.meanwhile the mixtur÷ na morning afternoon night abi?? .or na as many times as possible.
Abeg help me. D cough is deep eh!

hunniesuzie:
He refused oh. Change diaper, tickled his feet and chest he will open eye and close it again. He only did it for 2 nights and I observed it was the 2 nights he cried himself to sleep cos of colic. He's back to normal now. In fact his eyes are shining like torch

AlphaHandMaiden:

Thanks so much for the reply.it means i will have to wait till I get a breast pump.At least I know now that it is possible for me to be away for a day or two.



Just make sure you take a breast pump with you and express while you are away at the usual times your baby would feed.
That way you avoid engorgement and also do not have a reduction in supply.

I hope you feel better soon .

WambyDiapers:


Wow, first time we have heard that one from Plateau! Thank you

Hansel is doing great. Recession doesn't give us enough time to follow up on the thread anymore. How are you guys doing now?
