ZillyO try corporate messengers I used them from the uk to ship a lot of stuff and they delivered to my door step but they were a little bit pricey, someone has also used them from NY to send stuff to me and they were efficient, if you look them up online you'll see their Website, i'm sure others on this thread will have other shipping agents they have used actually some of these shipping agents online are scams o

@merrymum, God bless you for this info. But I don't know how long it'll take for them to process it. I intend leaving on Sunday before, but baby's US PP is not even ready. Applied over 4weeks ago, (Expedited), only to receive a letter that babys name is printed, sign...blablabla, in a nut shell, we sha re-fill the form and sent it back (expedited too O), and we're still waiting. So I'll just shift my ticket and Wait for the Naija PP stuff.(Additional expenses). It is well.

@All, pls for mamas that uses Sebamed products on LO, did you get from US? If yes, pls kindly tell me the stores, so I can get for lo. They seems not to know what it is here. Or if there's any other lotion like it (Tested and Trusted) pls help. My baby is kinda breaking out, and Pediatrician said I should get Cetaphil, but not helping. Pls TIA



@ apple19, i think you baby is allergic to these products, my son was like that too. After wasting money on Sebamed,cetaphil and placing him on steriods at that tender age with no way forward , i was advised to use local shea butter not the processed one. the one that hausa women sell in otako market. Also called okuma, my dear that thing is natures gift to us as my son skin cleared like magic. Try it and the result will shock you. I still use it for him up still now after wasting thousands of naira going from one dermatologist to another.


ANY MAMA GOING TO LOS ANGELES IN JUNE AND INTERESTED IN SHARING A TWO BEDROOM SHOULD PLS SEND ME A PM. thanks

Be careful with this

The last time they came to Houston in October, 2015 people that processed passport got it after 3 months.

It wasn't instant in anyway. If u came for missionary waka I advice you just do visa or ETC and be on your way

Baby is breaking out where?
Is it on the face?

Are u rubbing oil on her head? If yes stop it for now cuz I'm surprised you say cetaphil isn't working. It has zero scent so shouldn't provoke any allergic reaction.

Yes she's breaking out on the face. I stopped using Cetaphil on her face instead I use Eucerine. And I use Coconut oil on her head (original). Her doctor said I should stop using soap (Dove white) on her face too. The rashes just keep re-occuring. I Even stopped Dairies in case it might be die to allergy. Really getting tired

Re: Give Birth In USA: Cost And Procedures Part 3 by Nobody: 7:46pm On Mar 17, 2016
Pele dear, I can totally identify with what you are going through...when I had my daughter I went through similar if not worse...was using Johnson then with her...she broke out on her face, constantly peeling skin on the front and back of her head and then different colour patches on her skin. It was a horrific period for me but now her skin is flawless, beautiful and perfect... I just had to allow myself understand that sometimes infants go through such and it will pass...so pls dont go crazy over it... grin

Spent a lot of money but finally skineal did the trick...had to mix the skineal with ori (original market bought Shea butter) cos skineal on its own lightened her skin... Also used black soap when I got back to Naija...the black soap that those women mix specifically for babies... My mum got that for me though but I know it has honey and a lot of great components for their tender skin. So my advise: while still in the US utilize sebamed soap (I used it on my baby too later and its pH value thingy is great) and Shea butter...and most importantly relax and dont stress because her skin will regain its perfection before you realise it.

What you advised is okay but pls be careful with skineal, skinmed as it contains steriods. that is why it was lightening her skin. infact that is what some women use to bleach their skin. most medications used to treat skin disease contain steriods and are unsafe to be used for a long time especially for a baby. Their long term damage on the baby`s skin and metabolism is just not worth it.

She is reacting to all those stuff, I think shld stop applying lotions,moisturiser or ointment, if sebamed has oil u can try that and the body wash in place of bar soap. Till date my 5yrs old does not use bar soap cos he was reacting to it as a baby, I use mothercare oil and body wash and his skin is flawless.
Stop fretting she will be fine. Wish you the best.

Please stick to what madammus said. I had exactly d same experience with my baby and it was like a week to travel back to naija. I was so scared ehnnn...and you know our people, they'll be like 'upon d America wey you go born, see your pikin face'..lol well my dear don't bother yourself too much. Just continue with the Shea Butter. In my case, I mixed my Shea Butter with little funbact A, and it worked magic!!!

Hi,

My son broke out too when he was a few weeks old. His ped asked me to buy dove sensitive and aveeno baby lotion ( the one with no scent) and cortisone 10.
After my sister had stocked up on Shoprite's discounted Johnson. We left it all in America for her.

With my Daughter I took ori (Shea butter) even her ped was loving the moisture on her skin.

All the best.
