@tatacherie, welcome to newborn thread. Clean ur nipples often wt olive oil. Ensure baby latches on properly. Apply a lil of ur breastmilk to ur n.ipples. Takes lots of fluid and pap. Continue putting baby to breast.

You can get it in the market where they sell educational stuff for children. It comes as a puzzle pack. You fix it toogether and it becomes a mat. Its cheaper than most play mats and also durable. They come in Alphabets and numbers.

Thank you

Good morning vigilantee moms howz it going with vigilante n our lovely babies.May God crown our efforts with healthy,obedient,and God fearing children in Jesus name Amen.
So I'm officially porting from the preggie thread.I've not read any page here since preggie.I regret having not started reading pages here earlier even while still pregnant.
I delivered my honey Bunnie last Thursday that's 5 days ago.
Kindly put me tru o FTM..I'm not yet lactating properly.hunger wan finish babi.we bought Nan1 already she's not taking well.she prefers sucking d dry breast now my nipples are on fire.like its been hit with an iron,cracked,sore,painful, etc.almost in tears if I want 2 put it in her mouth.
Help me with suggestions pls.Note some one advice I take small stout and peak milk to aid lactation which I did but I almost regretted.it somehow helped but baby seems to b reacting to d little milk coming out.

Hey teamie..congrats again

Are you sure your baby is latching well,? Shouldn't be just the nipppple the entire black area should enter the baby's mouth

If it hurts badly you can buy nipppple cream (I use lasinoh) and it's safe for babies so u don't have to worry about washing it off

As per lactating, make sure you are taking lots of fluids, water, pap, tea, etc and just be patient with the process as long as you put the baby to the breast often the milk will come

If she doesn't like nan you can try Sms but kore importantly what bottle are u using to give her, try tomee tippee they say that's the closest to the real thing

Well done mama... You doing a good job never forget that

Be patient with the process

Try giving her this cereals made from wheat, millet, fonio, tiger nuts, white rice etc.

Trust me. No baby has ever rejected it.

Its also very cheap and affordable.

You can try eucalyptus oil AKA silver bird( brand name) I used it for my LO and it worked just put a few drops in a bowl of hot water and let her inhale the steam. Pele..

Pele, I can imagine what you're going through.
You can get kids videos for him not just nursery rhymes I usually download them from YouTube
How about getting him a coloring book and some crayons, but the only problem be say your walls go hear am grin Plus he might even use it to colour his body too. I remember one time our last born wrote Letter A on the walls of the whole sitting room grin long story short, we had to repaint.
Others mamas go add cos the other ideas coming to my head will still require you to be actively involved.

I salute all d mamas in d house.my mamas wt older children,wt cream do u use on them?ws told here to try johnson bt noticed dt all d 3 i bought gave my older son rashes at d neck region.i used ori 4 them as babies bt they started breaking out,my younger boy jst passed thru an episode of measles so i ws told 2 miss funbact A wt ori 2 clear d roughness but am stopping in 2 days cos i dnt wnt to use it more than 7 days.pls i need a nice cream for both 4 and 2 years.thanks

Mamas Biko answer her ooo!
I still use Johnson for my 22month old and her sis uses Baby aquaphor .
Y not try the famous sebamed, if you don't want to use the baby one you can try the one for adults. Either one of them should work fine for your children.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by hajarahbadmus(f): 9:56am On Jan 19, 2016
@beryl thanks for the ideas.. I am really grateful. I was just thinking its quite early for him to start colouring..
I will get more videos for him.. I have some story books on my phone nd he enjoys listening nnd flipping d pages.. in fact whn he is engrossed, I must not touch it. he is learning how to operate it sef.
teachers nd educationists in d house please come to my aid..

dunny.. my boy also broke out with measles lastweek. but if u c his skin, u wont know. wht I dd was: I stopped sponge whn I observed nd was using only soap for him morning nd night. I used his sebamed, calamine lotion nd 7keys herbal mixture..
After d episode, I continued with d soap nd adin dudu (made from palmoil) no regrets..
u can try sebamed soap nd original coconut oil as his cream. then let him take cucumbers nd carrots.. the benefits r great for skin rejuvenation . I used to soak cucumbers in my Los water during d episode. .

Please stop d milk and watch if there is any difference, when I gave birth nd I had d same problem, a mother advised that we sshould stop all diary products. It could b colic, you can help her by massagin her tommy with cloth dipped in hot water(not too hot o, nd squeeze out d water), read about colic so ull understand better. I was able to manage it with my princess without any medication, most of all, make sure u burp after every feed.

You will probably soon start getting advice on how u should give your baby herb or used d cord nd lantern, or ogiri iijebu or nospamin, IMO all u need is patience nd b4 u kno it 3 months is gone. PLEASE DON'T BE TEMPTED TO GIVE AGBO.
