Sorry about the itchy nipples.

I used a lanolin based cream which helped alleviate this for me. The brand is lanisoh. You can try it, should be available in any pharmacy.

Hope this helps!!!

Good evening mamas,my son stools every 4 days now. He gets really uncomfortable before he stools,passes gas that smells and when he eventually stools it smells so bad and it's pasty and it's plenty. He takes more of breastmilk and nan1 just at night. He is 11 weeks old too. Secondly, I still get my pant stained, blood is bright red once in a while is it normal?. I did a c-section.

Hello mamas, my 9 month old baby stools at least 3 times daily for more than a week now. I am bothered about it, is it normal? The poop is always between Grey and black colour.

Some 11 days ago, I noticed two upper teeth were coming down, as at today only one has grown. The second refused to show. Has anyone experienced this before? I'm wondering what could have happened that made the second one not grow again.

Also she always try to scratch her ears especially after taking her bath, what could be the ish? Thanks mamas.

It could be an infection or just the several ish associated with teething.
As for the other tooth, don't worry it would come at its own time. It could even take a month before it comes up full.
Her ears... She could be having an ear infection. I suggest you go and see a pediatrician.

The measurement is on the ti.

Enfamil's scoops are larger...they are double the size of Aptamil. I used both Aptamil and Enfamil. Aptamil was 1 scoop to 1oz, while Enfamil is 1 scoop to 2 oz.

Thanks for responding. I was thinking she has eaten the other tooth, because there's a way she grinds her teeth together. It sounds somehow, I know.

IVF Talk!!!

In vitro fertilization or fertilisation (IVF) is a process by which an egg is fertilised by sperm outside the body: in vitro ("in glass"wink. The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman's ovulatory process, removing an ovum or ova (egg or eggs) from the woman's ovaries and letting sperm fertilise them in a liquid in a laboratory.

If you will agree with me, IVF in practical understanding is the wisdom of God manifest in the knowledge and understanding of human. Anyways, we don't have to flog this.

While this medical practice is almost 100% (99.9%) success in some part of the world, it is still 50% with our best consultants here in Nigeria. Our government need help revamp our health sector.

If you need discuss your IVF or speak with a consultant free of charge, Panel of Consultants at Ruby Hall Clinic, India will be delighted to avail you right information.

Enfamil is one scoop to 20z of water, then depending on the quantity your lo can finish at once you may increase appropriately. 4oz will require 2 scoop.

Please I sent a request to "ask the paediatrician" on facebook and I'm yet to be accepted. I have a preaaing question and anxiety no free me wait. I've been diagnosed of candida albican and I'm exclusively breastfeeding. I want to find out if its okay for me to swallow tabs for it (will it affect my baby?) though I have inserted canesten pessary. I'm afraid it can pass through BM. Thanks

Will try emailing the founder ...

Try to modify your diet. Add more vegetables and fruits to it.

Then perhaps you can give the baby water in moderate quantity to help soften his stools. Seeing as he takes a little formula.
