Liftedhands:


Ovaltine although rich in vitamins still has sugar! And lots of it.

Whatever benefit it'll give will be inconsequential cos of the sugar content.

It's recommended to leave chocolate drinks out of children's diet at least till age one! Juice inclusive.

Children can easily get addicted to the sweetness thus reject other foods later.


Thanks much.
Thanks.

Lemme respect myself.
She just drags my plate or cup now.
Refusing milk too or should i say bottle
Hubby suggested i use plate and spoon 4 her now.

Chia.

thanks o someone was saying her baby was already sitting at 2 months and i was wondering if i should have started. Im a ftm
yea right! *Rolls eyes*. Please don't out undue pressure on yourself and lil one just cos someone said this and that about their own baby.

Often times it's just silly bragging.

I had issues with lactation and I had to augment with formula when my son was 2 weeks old.
But kunu helped me sha. Though I gained weight because of it.
Try expressing so you know how much you're producing. But please follow your instincts too. If you feel your baby is hungry please give formula.

Cc: Voucher

If you don't eat enough and load up on liquids, it tends to affect BM production.
In the early stage, you should take all takeables so as to establish. Then with time, you reduce your intake.

I gained weight too, cos I did pap and milk a lot.
It's now I understand why some women shy away from breastfeeding.
It takes great self control not to eat up the whole house when someone like my DD finish dealing with da breZzsmiley

are you sure she was weighed correctly when she was born, adding just 200g is too poor



Abeg want to ask did any mom have a baby that was born with very little hair? did the hair grow after? my dd was born with very little hair, the back is more than the front hair, im thinking i should just cut it so it will grow evenly or do i just leave it for now undecided

people long time oh. May God not allow mothers coming for omuguo give someone postpartum depression. Some mothers are very fun like mine. As soon as my husband went offshore my mother came over for omuguo that was when my stress started. The 1st evening she came I made rice for dinner she said she doesnt want rice that I should make eba for her I did after 1:30mins she said I should that I should add water to warm rice for her to eat that the rice is too hard without even testing it (assumption one of her major issues). I told her that both of us I dont know who is doing omuguo oh. She laughed. Next thing she said go and lock all the doors and close all curtains. In my mind I was like this is my house I know I will lock door before I sleep u dont have to say (she likes to be the one to tell u what to do (controlling attitude). Next day she wanted to cook pepper soup she started complaining I cant cook in this kitchen its too small for me. I cant wash in the bathroom she took the baby's cloth outside to wash. I dont like spreading clothes on hanger I like it directly under the sun on a line. I said pls put it on the hanger. She went to wash the bathroom and started bringing out bowl my dh use in washing the car and the bottle we put detergent to throw away that she doesnt like them. I said those are for my husband there is nothing wrong with it and i met them in the marriage.
She was in the sitting room and my son was sleeping. I was in the kitchen slicing pepper to fry egg. Next thing I heard her calling me from the room that I should bring the baby for her and she walked from the sitting room without carrying the child I told her there was pepper on my hand. I put my baby on my back with a wrapper.
She doesnt bath baby my neighbour that has given birth to 8children comes to bath him morning and evening. She said she doesnt know how to birth babies but she will not wake up to put water on fire for him and set everything for him to bath I will wake up to do that. She will go to her shop and come back 8:30pm and tell me to come and make food for her when I am about going to bed. When I am on the fone with Dh she will be upset and say how many hrs will u talk on the fone. When I am breast feeding she be like only one child u have given birth to see ur stomach why dont u have my kind of stomach. If u are not careful ur breast will fall. As in I got tired and stressed cos of her.

I had my bath and used little coconut oil to rub my body she just said I beg go inside and rub ur body as if she was talking to a 2yrs old. When im trying to lay down to get some sleep after since my baby has sleeping after waking up several times at nite. She will be like I beg go and bath u dont like bathing right from when u were a baby. My sisters I got tired of her I couldnt hold my upset again I told her she is treating me like a child and she was said she hasn't done anything wrong that she has even over stayed so she carried her hand bag and left. Later my brother came to my house she called my brother to carry her bag home and she never came back. I will manage myself with my 2months old baby after all I was doing alone for 7weeks before coming back to najia.

What Do You Want to Know About Pregnancy? Pregnancy occurs when a sperm fertilizes an egg after it is released from the ovary during ovulation. The fertilized egg then travels down into the uterus, where implantation occurs. A successful implantation results in pregnancy. continue reading >>>>https://taphealth24.com/2017/04/15/what-do-you-want-to-know-about-pregnancy/

good morning and happy Easter to everyone.
please I need your help. my sin has been stooling since Thursday. though in different variations. initially it was thick and then it became watery and slimy almost after every meal. right now I can't remember the last time I changed a nappy without poo in it. and its giving me cause for concern. its almost like marathon.

he takes cereal and pap which I give him with spoon and I only use the feeding bottle for giving him water which is properly sterilized. initially I was adding tom brown to his pap but stopped when the stooling started. I took him to the hospital yesterday and the did test for him and the result was OK. no infection. I was given ors in sachet to give to him.

I'm just tired and I feel he is losing weight. is there anything I can do. this is someone who only poops in a day. the takes Sma pro, the foreign one as his milk. he is teething because I can see a tooth coming out already. could that be the culprit. he completed his rotavirus immunisation.

zaynie, alphahandmaiden, helovesme, liftedhands,feddy27, in short make every mama.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by Liftedhands(f): 8:12am On Apr 17, 2017
Sugarcanebaby give him the ors and try another cereal it could be the cereal he is reacting or tge quantity of food he is eating is too much for his body to assimilate thus the constants poo.
Air his bum and coat with nappy gel to prevent rashes from the frequent poo. If he is drooling that may be why the poo is slimy.

Other mamas will contribute more take care.

Please keep an eye on him and go back to the hospital should it persist.
