Hi everyone...

Are all those painful massages given to babies during bath really necessary?

The whites don't do this and they turn out fine.

Just thought to ask.

In addition to that, you should also use an organic shea butter (one that hasnt been mixed with anything) on their delicate skin to maintain their skin color and texture. Its been proven and recommended by various health practitioners.


Example of a pic below.

Good evening mamas in the house,
Pls I need your help once again o.
I need a non cultural based guidance on care of belly button (navel) after the umbilical cord falls off!
I googled and Google says just to leave it except clean any secretions if found...
I have heard so many different versions, like use hot fabric to press the Navel, tie stones to fabric etc. Grind the fallen cord etc...

Pls can someone educate me on the proper and adequate/necessary care.
Coz my baby's cord fell off on Thursday, and I am concerned I am not doing the right thing.

Also pls how long will it take for the Navel to heal properly!

Pls note I am asking despite Google coz, I remember Google said I don't need alcohol (spirit to clean cord) just damp cotton is adequate, but I latter read somewhere that alcohol could be used in developing countries (Nigeria is one) where there is high susceptibility to infection.

Pls educate me.
Thanks.

I was in your shoes last 2 weeks, looking for the proper way. I just resolved to cleaning the navel with warm water and cotton wool after reading from vanguard site about a doctor educating that the old traditional. method of lantern, hot water... weren't necessary,. The navel closed up within 4 days.

Good morning ma'am. I remembered you talking about engaging a speech therapist in one of your post. I urgently need one for my son and will appreciate if you can recommend one that is effective but not too expensive. My son will be 2 next month and he only reads 1 - 20, A-Z and aings 3 songs. Nothing else. He does not even respond to greetings and does not call names. I will appreciate getting your contact so for more effective follow up.

Good evening. I've replied your dm...
But i dont think there's a need to fret, he's just turning 2. Is he in school yet? Does he have siblings or neighbours kids he plays with? These things affect speech development.
If you still want to schedule an evaluation with the therapist id send you her details but i think he'd benefit from interacting with people albeit forced interaction.
Miss Rachel on Youtube is a good interactive/learning channel for kids. Also follow "speechsisters" on IG for tips on how to force him to communicate.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by Adesquare2(f): 1:19am On Mar 24, 2022
Okay ma'am and thanks for the reply, I do not expect him to read. Just want to be sure every thing is fine especially since he hardly responds to instructions. I gave birth to him at General hospital when Covid was at its peak and was discharged few hours after birth hence I cant remember any major check being done. I also could not go back after 2 weeks for the normal check up as hospital then was for only emergency and severe cases hence my worry and need to be sure that nothing was missed out on.

I however did not miss out on immunizations as I got that from health centers and private hospitals around me when everything began to ease up.

He started school last september and is in playgroup 2nd term. He also has an older sibling and our neighbors children sometimes come around to play with them.

I have replied your mail. Thanks for all you do ma'am. God bless you.

Good afternoon Mamas
It's your girl again o.
My baby is about two weeks now.
Initially she cries for food after every two/three hrs.
But I noticed since yesterday she's been sleeping more both at night and day.
My concern now is when I notice it's over four hours she's been sleeping, I try to wake her up to eat, she sucks for a minute or two and go back to sleep.
Eg. today she's had just one proper feeding session of about 20 minutes sucking. I have even changed her diaper with the hope she will Wake to eat, but she just sucked for about 2 minutes and went back to sleep.

Pls mothers what can I do?
I am concerned she's not getting enough nutrients. Coz I googled and saw babies should feed 8-12 times daily with a min nursing time of 20 minutes per feed for breast fed babies.

Please what do I do?
Btw 1pm and 2pm I have tried to wake her up about 3 times, but she's just enjoying her sleep.
