What pcm did you use? Panda? That did nothing for my baby when she had her 6weeks immunisation. She had strong fever for over 48hours and I was so scared until a nurse told me to buy Calpol. It's a stronger med specifically for post immunisation fever. It's quite pricey (about 3k)But it's well worth. You may not be able to get it in most pharmacy but check Health/Med plus. Hope your LO feel better soon

I second the use of Calpol infant suspension for post immunisation fever. It very very effective even for teething pains.
The difference in the relief it provides is very clear when compared with panda.
let me add that Calpol is just like the pcm I knew while growing up.
We bought ours for #2500 but I saw it for #1870 in another pharmacy. you may wish to compare prices before buying.

Pls what is wrong with me feeding my baby cereal with plate and spoon. My mum wouldn't let me breath cos I don't feed my baby with feeding bottle. When I give him with spoon he eats up to 150ml of either pap or cereal in less than15mins but with bottle he barely eats 80ml in 30mins+. She sounds like am doing something very bad.

You are not doing anything bad. Bottle feeding is what they are used to.
This is exactly what I have been facing in the last few days. My mum keeps saying which kain ceremony be all dis with spoon feeding. she believes it's too early even at almost 6 months and it's not practical especially when one is going out.

Leave ewedu if you ain't used to it, make okro soup with scumbia fish (that shiny one without scales).

My friend's 20 month daughter was given bottle, now she refuses plate and spoon. Imagine a grown toddler already talking small small oh!, coming to collect her bottle of cereal from her mummy, she will now go to one corner shaking her small bumbum as she's going, finish it, get up and return empty bottle (she will even announce "ah finis" grin grin grin)

That is agbaya behaviour please, she's the one that motivated me to never give my baby cereal in his bottle

It depends... Considering when you had your last baby. For me,i decided to take in the same month my first son clocked 1year but still had c-s.

Have you spoken to your doctor/gynea

I learnt that if someone dont wanna have another cs after the first,you are to wait for about 2years(im not sure).

Other sabi mamas go soon come chook mouth but i'll suggest you ask your doc.

Silverbird is tooooooooo strong for baby's skin. You said pains so I would recommend you take her to the doctor

Next time, you put silverbird on her bib or a cloth and place the cloth near your baby so she can inhale. Don't put on her skin biko

My 15month old is having this cough that goes and come. We have been to a ped twice,taken ampiclox and erythromycin. And the cough is back. She's not coughing up anything. I am now using honey and diluted lemon juice,warm water ,palm kernel oil etc. Tomorrow i will take her back to the doctor but i don't want another antibiotic. What else works for cough?

Hi Rooty,

Please take your baby to the hospital so she can be checked. The rashes is likely a reaction to the use of silverbird eucalyptus oil on her head.
Essential oils are very potent so you must be careful with how you use them.
She will be fine.

You can try Zaynie's cough recipe

Palm oil n Sugar
1 cube st luios sugar
And sizeable palm oil.
Crush the sugar in d palm oil in a small cup.
Give him a spoon(tsp) every 2 hours or as soon as the cough is coming.

iomoge2 also recommends in of her posts
Ori n a pinch of salt.
Melt ori n d pinch of salt in a metal spoon.
That is put d spoon over fire.
Then pour the melted oil n salt into a plastic spoon and blow till cool. U can use ur finger to checkbor ur tongue.... then give ur baby.
Let him swallow it.
Its relieve is instant. Give as often as needed.
Then find d root cause of the cough...
It could even be perfume...or powder.
Just watch closely.
