I haven't expressed in bottle 4 her b4, and I do give her food from my plate but after 2spoons she won't collect again.

She will accept with time. You just have to continue feeding her the little she can take. Since she is not used to it from onset. Just like adults too, life is one step at a time.
She will soon get used to solid.

Thank you so much ma. I used it and got the discount.

Ah so you're introducing 2 new things at the same time. Patience is key. Keep breastfeeding and trying

Alright thanks alot

zaynie:
Myrygurl, Moyo was like this too. He exclusively breastfed for almost 10m which wasn't good as he was really losing weight and always hungry 2hich made both of us really cranky.

What saved me was eggs. He loved eggs boiled or fried and he loved chicken too and fish. And pap without milk or sugar. He also loved fruits so we just made do with these. Later we progressed to Amala with ewedu suffocating with fish , from just a few swallows to finishing a small wrap. And boiled yam buried in fried eggs. The trick was mounting what he liked on top of what he didn't care for but need in order to add weight.
You just keep trying a variety of food till you find the one.



Let me give you hope, the Moyo that everyone said was just too tiny and a picky eater is now bigger than kids is age, in fact he measures with kids 1-2 years older than him. He's always hungry these days (and I don't use the glutton drug on him o, and just once for Muna) that even me, I'm tired of his eating anyhow and outgrowing all his clothes too quickly

Thanks...This is really encouraging
I appreciate

olubankemi:
Any educationist in the house? Or anyone with clear understanding of preschool thing?

Looking at my kids starting school in January so we checked around and we picked one base on recommendations from parents around us.

However, we are worried about their toddler class not wearing uniform. My neighbour said that's 'jeliosimi', yoruba literal translation for 'make house rest', I really don't like something that for them. I don't want where they just make them sleep like that. They will be 20 months old by January.

I want them to be in 24 months old class. Is this appropriate?

Please someone help.

I got the mention from ebony13.

I think it depends on the school and if they want to mirror how things are done abroad (EU, US,etc).

Kids do not wear uniform till they get to primary 1 (which is usually at age 4 - 5 depending on the country and what month of the year the child was born).

If the school is of good standard,wearing uniform or not will be the least of my worries. I am more concerned on what activities they engage the child with.

Regarding what class they should be in, it really depends on their age, what skills they've acquired and the school's placement policy. For example, if kids in the 24months class engage in activities such as painting, it pointless putting a 20months old child that cannot hold a pencil or a paint brush properly in the same class.

Thanks helovesme.
