Too much TV also affects their speech and language skills. Watching TV is a one-way conversation, so too much of it does not help children develop their speech. I made the same mistake when I had my son, but with my daughter, I corrected it.

A good creche/childcare centre should not have a TV.

Use google too. I didn't allow my babies watch telly o! I tried it with my first and she got so carried away and distracted by it that it took me a couple of years to correct. Her pre primary work hard the greatest hit. I know it keeps ur baby quiet but its not advisable.

Thank u o. I don enter am be that o cos he's already getting addicted. When Nepa bring light like this, he'll start jumping and crawls to the sitting room so i can put on the TV. Even yesternight, when his dad came back, he didn't even giggle and crawl to him the way he used to cos he was watching Barney. He cries for my phone when he sees it cos there's nursery rhyme on it and he loves it.
Wetin we go do nah. If he's not watching TV, then i must either stay where he is or back him. If not, he won't allow me do anything. God help us

I agree wt lovinam on this. Tv can be really addictive for kids. I prefer educative toys. U can browse delightfultoys.com to see sone educative toys per age group. Since we can control d tv they watch in school, let dat one b enough for them.

Pele dear, i dont feel any pain oh. the last pain i felt was when they were loosening the wire, now it has healed perfectly that someone wont even notice there's a major stitch there. My friends dont even know i had CS cos my tummy is even flatter than before. (Mine is a vertical cut sha, from the navel down just before my pubic hair).

Chai! Still dey pain u? What type of CS be that. So sorry mummy ibeji,may be its because of the stress of the twins that delayed the healing process because moving about too much can delay it but me i have forgotten i had CS sef, the pain went after 2weeks. Pls if you are feeling uncomfortable go to the hospital for checkup.
Kisses to the twins.

Don't stress mama..you can use the son's interest in t.v to your advantage. My son started watching t.v from day one because I put a t.v in the nursery and it is was always on, he became addicted. I was rebuffed by friends and family for that but to my surprise, my son started talking at 10 months he could say things like" milk"," more water pls", "nanana(banana)". He is 5 now at the top of his class and he uses big worlds like "miscommunication", "aggression" e t.c which he picked up from watching t.v. Though he is a bit restless...trust me,; I always find something for him to do.

Infact now when I need to teach him anything new, I look for videos on YouTube and sit him in front of the computer. He plays chess now which he learnt from watching videos, he perfected his spellings with the aid of videos. Just find the right balance and make sure he is watching meaningful and educational things.

Have you tried steaming? I do it with a drop of Eucalyptus oil though some people think eucalyptus oil is too harsh for new born. If you are in that school of thought then use only hot water. My hubby was also sucking DD nose with his mouth cos I couldn't do it. That helped to relieve her.
What are you using the sudocrem for? Catarrh?

I used tummy trimmer to get the desired result. That was after I had taken enough Uda and uziza soup, and drinking hot water. I just started drinking normal/cold water now. That's 4 months after delivery.
