Mothers, what can I say? You are exactly where the company wants you to be by justifying with your own reasons why it should be okay to feed your baby with golden morn.

The word infant has several definitions depending on who is defining. Nestle initially gave their definitions of infants to be 3 years which was very clear, but for some reasons best known to them, they removed that very important definition and left mothers second guessing who an infant is. Isn't that act fishy?

And as they rightly projected, mothers started feeding their infant babies with golden morn and justifying it with the fact that "infant" is not properly defined. So in essence, they company is gaining back its lost market share and at the same time avoiding litigation if anyone decides to sue them for any consequences that might arise from feeding babies with golden morn since they still have it written on the pack that it's not for infants. Perfect marketing strategy, but is it the best for babies and mothers?

And they have also refused to say exactly why it is wrong, also making mothers second guess why it is not suitable for infants. I wish it were just an issue of "difficult to digest" but you will be surprised it is much more.

In all of this, I'll advise mothers to be very discerning when it comes to matters like this and choose to err on the side of caution. If there is so much confusion as to whether something is good for my baby or not, especially if it is something that is consumed; personally, I'll rather wait till I am double sure the food or medicine as the case may be is good for my baby. Babies are too precious to serve as guinea pigs in corporate experiments. I wouldn't take any known risk on my baby no matter how much my baby loves the food or medicine.

And talking of reaction, let's remember that some reactions do not manifests till months or even years later. God help us all in taking the right decisions for our babies.

My baby had it too but just from d middle of his head to d front. I used boot shampoo and gently scrap with a very soft tooth brush. It cleared within 3-4 days. I use coconut oil for his hair.

Persil handwash or Persil colour, then I rinse with comfort.

Onegai:


Persil non-bio powder, it's supposed to have less fragrance and stuff that won't irritate baby's skin as much.

Iffffffy:

Please look up Diarrhea and dehydration symptoms in babies. If none apply to your boy, then he may just be having explosive baby poo (which is normal, all babies have it from time to time when they're young and on BM especially). If you're still concerned, ask your doctor, especially if it's happening more than once a day.

mubzay:
it depends frm ur location. If u see eko/idumota board it n alight at idumota ask for dosumu (are u familiar wth d place) side note ask for agarawu (where dey sell keys n padlock) the street opp it leads to dosumu just ask.
U can also board cms but alight at leventis take a bike or trek to idumota(dats if u knw ur way arnd) and follow as above.
Hope ds hlps. Cnt xplain more dn dis. So sry.

missmalachi:

My baby experienced it too after her 6wks immunization,She poo lik 10 times a day.i complained here also about her pooing n i also google abt diahorriah in babies.she was not running temperature n she was eating well.my mum insist i gv ors water but i did not.it stopped on its own.

If ur baby eat well n no temperature n act normal,then dont worry it will stop.

Another question....
My DD is 2 months and I've not pierced her ears yet. Her dad wants it done though, son my question is... Is it too late now, like would it be really painful now that she's not that much of a new born anymore and how soon does it heal cos the only way she'll sleep is on her tummy and I'm worried about her resting on the pierced ears. I'm also worried about breastfeeding cos she tends to rest on her ears whilst in my arms.... And carrying her on my chest....! Sigh!
I wish I could avoid it and save her the pain. It's quite upsetting actually.
Thanks mamas

Ebeano Supermarket in Lelki has huge bottles of the stuff. Dreft detergent.

Onegai:


the U.S. is funny, I had the same issue with piercing with Baby E (meanwhile in the U.K. remains small for them to pierce ears as the baby is born). It won't hurt, it's more the shock of it that made Baby E cry (though I hear some babies don't do too well and need Tylenol). I didn't give her any medication but ask the nurse to use their numbing cream in the spot 10 minutes before piercing. The nurse advised Methyl spirit to clean after but Olive oil (ped recommended) is better as it keeps the place away from moisture (so no sores) and you use it to rotate the earring (so it doesn't stick).

Is ebeano reopened? I heard about the fire that gutted the entire building
