Hmmm, my first didn't stop waking up at night till she was 1. It was hard, there were times that I cried, googled, nothing worked, but twas a phase and it passed. She started sitting late too 6M,I don't think u should worry, just keep supporting with pillows. It will come to pass.......

Good morning mamas how are we all doing?
I have plenty questions this morning abeg make una bear with me and help me answer them. When do babies start sleeping for longer hours thru the night? My baby is 5 months old and we still wake up minimum of 5 times per night and she wants to comfort nurse everytime she wakes up to go back to sleep.
Pls is it necessary to teach a baby to sit or they do when they are ready? She's also not interested in sitting on her own and people are already bugging me that i didn't start early with her. For now she's only interested in rolling over and she's already rolling on both sides.
Lemme stop here for now as i await answers. Thanks in advance

Nothing is wrong with it. When my baby was doing that, his day care nanny asked me if I ate snail while pregnant. She said whenever he does that, I should use turning garri stick to turn him.

Did I answer her? Hell no cheesy cheesy

My sister we're in the same boat right now.My son just turned 5 months and I wake up 5 times to feed him before morning.I tried giving him cereal the day he turned 5 months,he totally refused it,I tried giving him baby formula(cos he took it before my breast milk started flowing and I felt the transition from breast milk to cereal might be too much for him)but he refused that also.I didn't know switching from breast milk to cereal or other semi solids can be that hard.Right now I don gba kamu that I prolly have to keep waking up to feed him a lot till he's 6 months (hopefully he'll want other food then)

For the sake of curiosity, could you give her a doll and a garri turning stick to demonstrate the technique grin for posterity sake.

Keji3 and Newmum15,

I'm totally in the same boat and Baby E is constantly waking at night. We are trying to sleep train her but shes just starting cereals. We will have to ignore her cries at night and we've noticed that if she wakes up less, she sleeps better. So it's to get earplugs and hope for the best till she learns how to self-soothe.

After trying to get her to take formula for a month, she just woke up one day and started accepting it but for cereal she took it right from the first day i introduced it. Pls just keep at it and be consistent i was always complaining on this forum when my baby refused to take the bottle to the extent that i was spoonfeeding formula (things my eyes have seen). My sister switching from breastmilk to other food for some of us is like war o may God help us all. Stay strong this too shall pass

I allowed her to cry yesterday night but couldn't stand it any more after like 10 mins cos she was ready to bring down the roof. I think co-sleeping is making it difficult to ignore her. She sleeps better too and wakes up happy whenever she wakes up less.

Singing with the spoon. Seriously and let baby constantly watch you eat so they get used. to. the idea that food comes sitting upright and in a spoon and not a bottle.

Hello Mamas, please I have some questions that have been bugging me. 1. How long after delivery via c-section can one take a normal bath as was obtainable before delivery? 2. How long after c-section can kpekusing start? 3.three weeks after delivery i'm still experiencing intense nipple pain when I breast feed. I've been using Avent nipple cream and it only gives slight relief. What can I do? 4. The stretch marks that appeared on my stomach during pregnancy hurt me now. Hot,peppery feeling like that. Any remedy for it? Thanks in advance for your responses.
