She is telling the truth, why she was hiding, I don't know, maybe they don't allow them do pp grin

Rota vaccine is to protect against rotavirus (causes diarrhoea). Some people don't give their kids and nothing happens so it's eventually up to you. I can't speak for that because both my kids took it (I'm not into taking such risks and thankfully it was within my budget)

Last part Abuja mamas can advise better. There was a govt hospital they were giving free in Lagos at some point but I don't know if they still do. Who knows, there may be a place in Abuja that it is cheaper or free

PS: it's 2 doses so if you're negotiating price note that (6 & 10 weeks)



is good if you can afford,that do not mean something will happen if you don't,the free ones is ok for ur baby,the nurses are probably doing their own business,but is not bad,is just a preventative drugs,and is nothing that the 6weeks drugs can't take care of.

Please mamas, my 8 months old baby is getting really active and I'm kinda not prepared for this at all. I literally scream all day for one thing or the other.. It's either he's climbing the window, or hitting me on my face with his strong and large hands, or pulling my hair or pouring water on my bed or biting me with his toothless gums or jumping so hard or wanting to touch the ceiling fan, or wanting to put his tiny fingers inside a live extension box or wanting to touch his poop and play with it or chewing at my phone or hiding the remote, or wanting to watch only jimjam or urinating in my pillow or scratching/pinching our neighbour's daughter.
I WASN'T prepared for all these at this early age.

Please what do I give him to replace burnt calories as I want him to remain chubby and he burns a lot. Help me with food with good calories please.
95 percentage of babies reduce weight as soon as they start moving about, starting from crawling,leave him dear,I feel u,ur eyes will be on him all time,except he is sleeping,no rest.u can introduce swallow with ogbono soup�

Good day house

All mothers should kindly come to my rescu please and pls.

My daughter is only 5months, she has been suffering heat rash ( may be is heat rash or ila ) and stubborn dandruff ( looks like craw craw) since she was 1month. Inside cool when my baby is having heat rash.

I live in the UK. I don't have mother, sister or any family here to help me with her.. I shed tears when she itches her hair and face to the extent its brings out blood..people kept telling is the normal here with black children but I don't believe. Her scalp is always very dry, whitish and lost all her hair because of this.

Is there anyone who has experience same? The rash on her face turns dry, makes her red and its itches her.

Pls come to my rescu. Thank u all

When I was livinkng in the UK my son had same thing.... Dry scalp and very dry and rashed skin. My GP prescribed so many off the counter creams but nothing works.... Until I came to Nigeria and discovered it is ela.... I bath him with agbo and use one cream for yeast infection mixed with his cream and the thing disappeared..... So yes it is ella.... If you can get someone to get just the cream for you you will enjoy it... Just use a little... But with days off
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by mooretes: 8:51pm On Oct 30, 2020
your daughter has got cradle cap - use dentinox cradle cap shampoo or any cradle cap shampoo
u can also use coconut oil on her hair (from memory please dont quite me) but try to wash her hair less as its stripping off oil

it takes a while to go but it will resolve

Thanks ma. We started swallow with assorted since o. Before seven months sef. He eats well, I just want more suggestions on food that contain more good calories, you know, less quantity more quality. I don't want his tummy to be too big.
His favorite is agidi with soup, I make soup with everything because he will eat well as long as agidi is involved.
Egusi soup, okro, ogbono, egg soup, sweet potato soup, beans soup, fish soup, garden egg soup, onion soup. Lentils soup, name it, we have a soup version. grin grin

I am having a good laugh cheesy cheesy leave that young man abeg or what else do you want him to be doing na? and please get prepared urgently o.

Please keep anything that can cause injury out of his reach. He shouldn't have access to his poo or any dirty thing around. He's just been inquisitive.
As per the pinching, he's innocent and just playing, bear with him.

Just feed him well, most children tends to slow down on the weight gain due to their activities especially when they start crawling. Welldone ma
Thank you ma. The newest now is that he'll remove his diaper by himself if it's too wet or when he poops.
He sleeps in just singlet and diaper cos of the heat, we wake up these days to a soggy diaper lying somewhere on the bed and his empty bumbum, free to air of course. grin grin

Thankfully, he doesn't poop at night.

Awesomemama:


The reverse is our case
What can I give to soften poop
She takes pap, nutribom and cerelac
I don't make them too thick
Drinking water is always a struggle
I give warm water in the morning
Today is day5 and no poop, I'm worried and it's usually hard when it takes this long.
I've given warm water today, nothing yet
She's 8m
Apple juice once in a while is good for bowel movement.
Boil the apple a bit before blending and extracting the juice.
That's what I was giving my bobo when he wasn't taking much water, but now, he finishes a bottle of 75cl Eva water in 2 days.
Kisses to her. kiss

Depends on the age I think. But we stay under ac from 1 month old cos my baby sweat a lot. He won't sleep without fan or AC, and he has never had cough or cold/catthar. Not even once.
He's now 8 months

Your cervix is supposed to return to normal 6weeks postpartum. If you think you have symptoms of a prolapse, see another doctor.
SugaryBelle:
Hello Mamas, I'm 6 weeks post paturm , is it normal to have the cervix right in the lower vagina almost at the tip? I observed it when looking with a mirror because I had this feeling of heaviness in my vagina Which has stopped . I've gone to the hospital and did scan and they said everything is good and back to normal, but I'm still worried about seeing that blockage.

Are you on exclusive or do you give formula?
If you are on exclusive, what have you been eating for the past days? Is your swallow very strong?

If formula, try mix according to the instructions, don't make it thicker.

If your baby is breastfed only, you should be worried after 7days.

If you are on exclusive, you have nothing to worry about. Breastmilk digest with little or no waste so sometimes an ebf baby can go a week with a poo
