Lol sorry I meant to answer this then got carried away. I didn't end up using the palm oil cuz she was having a running stomach at the same time and I didn't want to complicate it. I used neofylin cough syrup and zinnat prescribed by the paediatrician, didn't give her much of the cough syrup cuz she really hated the mint and would spit like you're giving her poison, but I think it really helped with the cough. I don't know if you can use the shear butter for a two month old. Taking him to the hospital would be a good idea too

Hi everyone, I'm new here also a first time mama. U all are doing a great job...... Kudos. I have a baby of 5 months plus, right from childbirth my baby refused my breast milk, up to this moment he refuses to suck. Have been feeding him with NAN 1 ever since. My qst is this, I want to start feeding him with cereals nd normal food nd I don't know where to start from or how to go about it. I want to know the proper food or cereals to give him, remember he is not breast feeding at all. Thanks mas'. Waiting for ur replies

You can start with single grain cereals for 4 to 6 months to rule out allergies, introduce one in three days. You can find them in Gerber, Aptamil, Cow and gate. When your child hits 6 months, you can introduce cereals and pap. You will find a lot of varieties here as most cereals are from 6 months (i do august secret and variety of cereals). You could also go for homemade pureed food, (read back a page and see alphahandmaidens post) also check her blog too. Don't stop the formula, apart from his formula intake, you can mix with pap/other cereals that do not contain milk. From 9 months, you can start introducing finger foods to ur baby.

Note that some babies don't do this cereal thing and go straight to swallowing our usual meal once they hit six months. Find out ur los preferences and let him enjoy the transition

Nan1 is 2300 were I live

Lactogen is about 1800
Don't know how much aptamil is

I bought some bottles from pep store and they work fine. Here's a picture

THe big one with the green cover is 250ml and its actually my favorite
The smaller one is 125ml and I use that one for water mostly except when I want to give my son a small feed

You know you're just too sweet right? smiley the pictures are very explicit. Thanks. The pep store ones seemed cheaper so wanted to be sure before purchase. Thanks a bunch!

Sorry dear, I saw your question, I didn't even know you mentioned me sef, I don't really know what to answer cos I don't have any first hand experience, but I know the trick of persistent cough is to take malaria medicine and all the symptoms of cough and cattarh will disappear. I am team prevention is better than cure. Your Lo will be fine.

Yes they seen cheap but they work fine
I have one bottle that came with my manual breast pump, then my sister got me a set of feeding bottles too (I didn't like them but I used them anyway)
After my son's admission in the hospital, my doctor advised I get more bottles since I was bottle feeding along side breastfeeding. He told me minimum should be 10 bottles. So I ditched the ones my sister bought and went to the market to look for avent and chicco.
I saw avent but the lady had just one. So I bought it. Looked everywhere for more but didn't find it.
Then I went to pep store and got more. This one even turned out better than the avent (looking back now i think I got a fake one)
This one from pep works perfectly fine and my son does not struggle with the n.ipple

No vex. Sometimes when one doesn't have an answer to a question, they just pass. And sometimes those that have the answers are too busy to come online.
