Its like rashes sis, I'm so worried cos it's spoiling my cute bobo's skin. Beautiful morning to you all.

Please what is a alefo?

lovinam:
If your baby is below 1yr then u are still on track. So go get it from first dose

bimsusy:
Hello mums, my LO has alefo all over his neck, face , feet n back. Have been using baby tribotan bt I discovered it dries out his skin. Pls what else can i do? His skin now has alot of patches.el

OmogeNG:


Please don't do anything to the immunisation site. It will go down on its own. Also, don't rub it.

mydreams25:
Pls i took my baby for 6months immunisation and requested for the rotavirus vaccine but the nurse said he cant take it again because he is already 6mths. Pls mothers can he still take this PCV you are talking about?

phunmielomo:


Bimsusy if truelly it is alefo go and get bactroban cream fro a good pharmacy and ask them to give you and antibiotic u can use with it.The antibiotic is to push the alefo out fully from the body while the bactroban cream is to clear it outside.that was what i used for my dd when she had it and latest two days it went.I was told to use hibiscus flower to bath her which i did and didnt see result until my doctor told me to use that cream.just try it and see.

MiracleMum:


And the Paed approved it for a baby?
Tchiwinnie biko clear the air here on this. Am always not comfortable when I see online prescription for babies that has to do with swallowing. Omo e risky oh

kaffy4bill:

tchiwinnie:
Sorry dear. I ve been offline for sometym. Fone issues. Hope d air has been cleared nw. Didnt read all d way bk.
@fexcathy i dey o. Thanks for d mention How ur Lo

lovinam:

I know 3 states in the East give it free. Its a three shots vaccine. I'm shocked some states are paying for it. They should at least subsidise it. Sometimes we need to use govt hospitals or health centres for the common vaccines. They are actually d best cos they don't store the drugs. I rem when I went to give my baby vaccine in one of the big top three hospital in Lagos. We were 2 that needed that one, we were asked to go home cos they can't open it cos we were not many that needed it. I was shocked, we packaged ourselves and went home. I use govt hospital for immunisation.

MiracleMum:


Yes its been cleared. welcome back, i was thinking you were banned like bossladymo.

franky2013:
Good morning to all mamas in d house.. pls which toothpaste can i use for my LO dats safe to swallow (FLOURIDE FREE)? secondly mamas, is it d normal LISTERINE (MOUTH WASH) dat is reffered to as GLYCERINE? tnx

MiracleMum:

Go to The Palms Lekki. The Nett Pharmacy there will have it.

A good and relatively cheap formular that has probiotics is Aptamil. If you want a formula with a higher fat content, buy Enfamil...although it is more expensive.

Onegai:


I'll second Aptamil and add Gerber Good start to that list. Enfamil can cause gas in some babies (it caused gas with Baby E so we switched to Gerber). Corall, try and get your creams from the pharmacies in the Palms, of recent there's a huge ring of importers who flood the market with popular fake products. At least you will have a receipt and can cause a fuss if it turns out fake.

Good day nurse kaffy. I want to know if my 7 weeks old baby can still be given Hepatitis B vaccine. A nurse advised that it is no longer necessary if it wasn't administered @ birth and since I am not positive to the virus. Also, what can I use for the Eela on the skin of my baby? Thanks for your help.

MGeey:
Hello mothers,
Please my baby has cradle cap and it has entered his body giving him white patches like eczema. i took him for immunisation and a nurse there told it's fungal infection and said i should rub him nystatin cream and administer nystatin syrup and flagyll syrup for 5 days. She also asked me to get potassium permanganet (spelling alert) and add to his bath water. I proceeded to the hospital and the crowd was something else, i waited 4 6 hours yet there was no available Dr.

Please has anyone experience such? What measures did you take? Thanks.

I'm a ftm and not a medical practitioner too. But my lo had cradle cap(seborhoea dermatitis) met a dermatologist and he told me to use sebamed anti dandruff shampoo for his hair, then daktacort cream on the affected part on his body and it cleared out in less than a week. You can try that,im not in support of taking flagyl. How old is your lo?

proudmom38:



Apply breast milk on ur baby's cradle cap follow wit coconut oil n see d wonderment lol...

MGeey:



For real?

Thanks alot sis, will give u feed back

Please be careful the drugs you give your kid....yeap...antibiotic is a drug. No matter how it is applied, it is still a drug. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics can set your kids up for life....long-term health issues. The doctor that prescribed such for the other mum, might have his reasons. When it comes to drugs, it is not always one size fits all.

I heard the hibiscus flower thing works....you can bathe him with that, as long as you dont give him to drink. But as for the drugs, no pls.
