It's not about lactose intolerance.
Compared to breast milk and formula, whole cow’s milk is low in iron, lineoleic acid and Vitamin E
Cow’s milk has too much sodium, potassium, chloride and protein for little kidneys to handle
Early introduction to cows milk may cause microscopic gastrointestinal bleeding and blood loss in up to 40% of normal infants (this risk mostly disappears after 12 months)
Cow’s milk may cause an allergic reaction, approximately 0.3 to 7.5% of all children are affected
Cows milk consumption before 1 years of age has been linked to iron deficiency anemia in children

Is nan 3 good?

This isn't safe. Babies digestive system isn't ready for full cream till 12 months. In addition, the extra Iron and other nutrients required for the baby to grow are not in full cream milk. Potential for allergic reaction from whole milk also exists. With these few points of mine...

StrongWoman333:
Exactly. I'm even using full cream milk for my baby since 7months. It really dosnt matter.

Nan 3 is for children above 12 months, at that point you can use regular full cream milk

Life is not easy and to be a mother is not an easy job at all, from one challenge to another. It was noisy breathing before and when I took him to hospital they found out he has tonsilities and we did surgery few months ago
Now he's 2years and he has not started talking even to say mummy or daddy. Right now I am freaking out. A friend of mine came to visit me yesterday and after seeing the way he makes noise she called me after she left that she's worried about my son, pls i don't want to think the unthinkable.what do I do, which hospital will i take him to in Abuja. Let me not forget to say that when we went for circumcision they said he has tongue tie and was removed. Pls help an d advice a worried mum.God bless us all.

It is well ma, God will touch him and make him perfect and he will never be a source of sorrow to you.

I want to emphasize on this issue of tongue tie, Did you take him to the specialist to really confirm that he has a tongue tie?

I want to use myself as an example here, when my son was 1 yr plus, we went for a birthday party. A lady saw my son and said he has a tie tongue. This is a child that have started calling Daddy and Mummy. She was so sure of herself. Lo and behold, the panic just came from no where. I was so disturbed that I started asking everyone at the party to help me check. I later went to one woman that has 3 adults to help me check. She took us to her office and examine the child. She asked him to bring out his tongue which he did with guidance, ask him to raise the tongue too. Then she told me my son is not having tie tongue. But she said to remove all fear, I should take him to the hospital for examination. I went to a nurse who confirmed that there's nothing of such. I keep checking for like 6 months before I forgot about it.

Now to my daughter, one Grandma came to greet us and the next thing was to be monitoring my baby's mouth as she is crying. The next thing that came out from her mouth was the girl has small tie tongue. Spree, I went on Google search to see pictures of tie tongue , all the pictures I saw has nothing to do with my girl. My sister's mind was not at rest. Ok n getting to the office the second day, she went straight to a Dr and the Dr asked her some questions which are:

1. Is the baby's voice audible while crying?
2. Can the baby suck well?
3. Is the baby bringing out the tongue?
The answer to these questions is Yes.

Then, she told her my baby doesn't have tie tongue.
I called my nurse friend that took her delivery, she asked same thing. She even told me that with the kind of examination they did that day on her, they would have discovered she has it.

I went to the nurses at the immunisation center to ask too. They pinched her and come and see cry with loud voice. They confirmed she doesn't have it too.

That's how I was able to overcome my fear.

The Dr told my sis so many people are cutting what they are not suppose to cut there by causing harm to those babies.

Reason for my epistle is to always seek second opinion on this tie tongue issue before cutting it out.

What I know as tie tongue is that the baby won't be able to lift/move at all.

Note: Try University Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada. I think they have specialists there.

Once again, the Almighty God will everything that concerneth him to be perfect.

Sorry for my long epistle.

Jazzyjazz please recommend hospital with a good paed

Hi Mama, just breathe, it is well. First off mummy and daddy is actually hard especially for a first child who has no-one to show him by example. Is he making any sounds? If there is a need, the Paed will recommend a speech therapist who can help. Most speech issues can be solved with early detection

She's teething. If she's in pain give paracetamol and vitamin c and still breastfeed. It's normal.

Yea is teething
Teething drugs contains para, some even contain Tylenol which when overdosed is not good for their system..
If there is fever 37.5° and up, give para or use lukewarm and clean the body. If is above, see a doctor to check for malaria etc
