The water should not be so hot as you cant sit in it. I guess the 15 mins is just a guideline... if if gets cool you can top up with more hotwater to make it warmer.

The general advise is to allow 6 weeks before any sexual activites. Some people heal faster and are up for some hankypanky sooner than others. Everyone is different so listen to your body.

Intercourse may be a bit painful or uncomfortable the first time, however there is no need ro suffer in silence... if it hurts too much stop and you can try again another time... remember that there may be scar tissue there that you need to get used to as well.

To promote faster healing a couple of drops of good quality essential oil in thr sitz bath worked well for me. You can use either:
●Lavender oil
●Frankincense oil
●Helichrysum oil (costs an arm and a leg but this one worked magic after 2 uses)

Thanks Ma

I dint av pain at d site wen I kpekused, infact I really enjoyed d kpekus as my libido is intact but my Vijay was peppery after, same with d 2 times after then..

Jennykoko3009 keep doing your sitz bath it will heal, don't use hot water to avoid a breakdown! The water should be warm or Lukewarm sef! Sit in it making sure the water is touching ur jajaina, do so several times daily.

is there need to still put dettol and salt in warm water with any of these oil?

Follow the instructions on the tin. The rule of thumb is 1:3. That is, one scoop of formula for every 30ml of water. For example, my son is currently on 100ml and I add 3 scoops of formula.

Start with about 20ml of formula and then gradually increase it.

My dear, pls don't get it wrong, 30ml of water is supposed to be one levelled scoop. So 3 levelled scoop is for 90ml and not 100ml.

Gaily04:


My dear, pls don't get it wrong, 30ml of water is supposed to be one levelled scoop. So 3 levelled scoop is for 90ml and not 100ml.

My dear. I use 3 scoops to 100ml. I am happy with MY choice and that is what works for ME. 90ml won't fill him and I don't see any reason to start measuring one quarter or less than one quarter of a scoop. What matters the most to ME is that he is well fed, healthy, strong, not constipated and exceeding his milestones.

The amusing thing is that sometimes he guzzles down the entire 100ml and cries for more and other times he doesn't even taste a drop and I have to throw away the milk.

without running any tests? That's dangerous. Pls take him to another hospital and insist on them running bilibirin test. Outside this country it's routine for any new baby

Better to be safe than sorry.

Thanks. They said its routine but i don't know why they didn't do it for my baby. I'm taking him for a test now.

Yea mama! Its good just clean with diluted savlon.

thanks alot mum Ekene
by d way, i love ur signature.. it's a quote from a passge of d bible I guess? pls where

Dear tynnuhluv,there is this red flower that works very well for eela,I don't know the name but it has both a green and red specie.Please ask around for it,when you get it,boil it and pour the water into a bath,it should not be too hot,then put her inside.

Then get efirin(scent leaves) plus coconut oil,squeeze the juice from the leaves mix it with the oil and apply on the affected part.Also try and limit the sugar both of you take.

This is the flower @ tynnuhluv

realsupermum:

You dont need to add anything else to the water. Fill your sitz bath with warm water and add 2 drops of the chosen oil.

Joysa:

Pls where can one get these oils?'

I got mine in the UK, but in Naija you can ask from a reputable spa, a good pharmacy or qhere a good range of bodycare products are sold. They are likely to have Lavender oil and Another alternative is Tea tree oil. These may be easier to find in naija. Sometimes these oils are sold as a set of about 6no 10 to 30ml bottles.

But please be careful that they do not sell you he ones for potpurri or the ones for oil burners.


For the frankinscence, try the people that sell incense You can also get whole frankincense, grind it to a powder and add a pinch or so to the sitz bath.
You may also add the powder to a base oil like olive oil or almond oil and leave in a warm place to infuse for a couple of days and use a few drops of the infused oil.

For Helichrysum oil..... sorry not sure where you can get that. But you can ask your pharmacy or spa

@helovesme, please I didn't intend to get to the wrong side of you. Was only trying to point out clearly what was stated on the tin. Abeg, am sorry o, no vex for putting my mouth in your opinion.

Wait oh! What did you think we have been saying since?!
Lol!
You have to sit in the water! That is why is should not be scalding hot!

To make it easier ask your local pharmacy for a sitz bath bowl that you put over your toilet. Fill it with the warm water and whatever additive and sit on it.

See pic below:

lolz you have to sit in it. The savlon or dettol plus salt serves as antiseptic to tackle infection.

Thanks sis i will go back to my sitz bath again for sometime.

Ginababy, hope you aren't over feeding him.

Hw do I answer dis question now? I don't think so. 30ml n 60ml is wat he takes at 3wks plus yet he throws up @ every feed. May God help me.
