Good day mothers pls i just joined for d first time, my 3months baby's navel is protruding which was inside b4 suddenly a month ago i noticed its out with a dark brownish circular skin at d middle, pls i want to know if dis is normal and would it still go down. Pls i urgently need a reply i am still a novice and dis is my first baby , really nervous.

This was my son's navel some weeks after birth and then by 3months it had gone in. I was so worried that I went to the clinic to make enquiries. Was reassured. And I let go. Slowly but surely it became minute. Just be patient but if you still feel uneasy, see a doc.

Hian, her own is better, the monitoring spirits I have around me won't let me eat n drink what I like grin, they say I should drink only hot things, even my malt is warmed before drinking, I shouldn't take milk, I shouldn't eat strong food.. This n that. Anyway I bless God. I had my Rhogam shot about 30mins after I came out from the theatre. God bless your family. Cheers

The milk ish is strange to me . Started tAking milk wit pap from the hospital before being discharged and twas also c.S. But I guess peeps have different beliefs. Don't think there's anything wrong with milk though.

Biko mamas with baby boys we have circumcision tomorrow, and I'm freaking out already. Please I need tips on how to take care of the site so it heals as soon as possible.

We were told to do absolutely nothing. No olive oil or penicillin and it healed on its own. Just the initial pain when it was done and when diaper was changed that I felt paracetamol was necessary for. Just keep calm, he'll do good.

Ex teamie, biko don't try that engine oil thing o. My son's ring fell off within 3 days of applying penicillin (4 times a day)... And I'm still applying the penicillin cos his circumcision was done over 2 weeks after his birth (we had to first treat the jaundice that appeared)

Meanwhile, mamas pls I need your say on this, my son becomes weak n tired after BF, is it normal? And we are 4weeks today, when can I start taking milk (I had my LO via ELCS)
You can take milk lightly like those small satchets,not like a tin of milk in a cup.
Some people are of different views,but I think milk is protein,which is highly needed for wound healing and milk production, just don't abuse it,like once daily.
If you are confused, you can still ask your doctor.

Thanks everyone. We're doing it in the village hospital, just wanna be prepared incase I hear 'Use engine oil' cheesy

Morning

As you mentioned village hospital. Let me chip something in, in case they do the traditional/surgical type where one mama wud use blade to do it. Although if you have alternative, pls don't let them do this method. I don't know why this is still in practice sef.

If that approach, you may be given antibiotics, pain reliever and vit C for him. They'd put bandage after the exercise to absorb the blood. Pls pour olive oil regularly to keep it moist (the hospital actually mentioned engine oil but I can't use that on baby).

They shud instruct on when to remove the bandage or tell you to leave till it removes itself. But don't leave it too long. I was told to leave it till it removed itself but it started smelling a bit and i asked a nurse when i went for my injections. She said I cud remove it since was already a few days , i didn't have the mind so mil removed it for me. Then just continue with penicillin.

The first pee after the removal is usually painful for them. I guess cos of the open wound sha.

Let's just hope it's the ring method. Wud save you the bandage thing.

Hospitals have their own guidelines sha so ask and use extra knowledge from here to decide on what to do. We are always here for each other.

Kisses to baby

you mean you have been taking Lipton tea? When I had my son, I discovered that whenever I take it, there will be little or no milk for my baby to suck that day. So I stopped. Didn't try it with my daughter..

Also, pertaining to the milk issue, it will be nice if u follow your Dr's advice. They all have their reason.
Like my sis, she followed up until she was giving the go ahead.

Then, warm drinks like water, pap etc help the tummy to go back to shape on time and it heals faster.

Congrats sir, hope you were finally able to get the Rhogam.
I was told not to take it while at the hospital, I can't remember the exact reason. My sis in law still said I shouldn't take it until 8weeks post delivery, I'm 4weeks PD and really want to include it in my diet but need to be sure. I don't even know if Yogurt is included cos I've taken that like thrice.
mine was don't take evaporated milk! But I finished a 900g of peak powder in 2 weeks! Also cs.
