fearless07: @ swtme, I just read where u said u did CS. I also gave birth to my son via CS. My dr had to do that cos I ddnt go into labour and d hospital policy is dat after 41wks+ 3days, they induce if one doesn't go into labour. Induction no work. I ddnt feel a thing when I was induced. I had d CS at 42wks on d dot. I want to knw what u did to make ur tommy go down? Mine is still big and am a bit self conscious of it. Thanks.

I also looked pregnant 1-2 months after i gave birth cos i had very big stomach when i was pregnant that i, my family n friends felt i was gonna give birth 2 triplets.I went from 58kg-103kg(first pregnancy) n 62kg-98.something kg(second pregnancy) so i had so much fat on my body n especially stomach so its very hard 2 burn such fat immediately considering d fact that I just did an operation n we cant press d stomach with hot water like ppl that had normal delivery.

Pls if u just gave birth,try n relax n dont think about it 4 now so that it wont affect ur milk production cos of ur baby, be happy cos it will definitely come down n i beg u dont starve urself, u av 2 eat because u r breastfeeding.

They say breastfeeding helps d stomach go back 2 its normal shape but with research I av done d change is not that obvious but when u r strong enough do house chores n take a walk then avoid sugar u can use honey but not sweeteners cos it might not be gud 4 ur baby as he/she sucks ,then even if u want to take swallow let ur soup be much avoid meat instead take fish also avoid fried foods,minerals n beer.

When ur child as stop breastfeeding u can now reduce ur food intake but don't miss breakfast cos if u do u wud eat a lot in d afternoon then also eat fruits,take low fat milk(Dano slim) n sweeteners (sweetex)to replace milk that as lot of fat n sugar and if u av time u can go 2 d gym but i didn't go 2 d gym o.Gudluck dear!!!

blank:

Please look at the ingredients in the Bonjela or whatever other teething mixture you use, u will see that the ingredients are same with most other pain relievers. Its just a more expensive paracetamol. Sometimes, we include paracetamol and still give teething mixtures, is that not overdose?

Also, giving a baby paracetamol needlessly ie when the child is not running a fever for a continuous period is just damaging the baby's liver unnecessarily.

Well said dear, when my child was teething I gave paracetamol 4 every 6 hours even if d temperature goes up before d 6 hours i wait n just tepid sponge 4 d main time.

I went to d hospital one day 4 myself n i saw one woman that brought her son to d hospital cos he was running temperature n d Dr came n ask her if she as given d boy d paracetamol he said she should give him n d woman said d nurse told her 2 wait till when its 4hours after she gave him d last one of which d Dr said 3 hours after is ok,so d Dr got angry n went to go n confront d nurse n i told her to wait for 6hours after n that was exactly what she did cos i showed her where it was written.

Ppl when make paracetamol say it shouldn't be given more than 4 times a day but ppl just chose 2 abuse d drug by taking it every 3-4 hours.

U knw dat wen wen u'r breastfeedin,they tel u 2minimiz d intak of sugar 2avoid jedi-jedi happenin 2ur baby.There's this thng dat d Kaduna woman dat used 2mak myn back then cal Siro (germinated rice).Sh said its a sweetener so sh wasn't addin sugar&it tasted so good.If u'r in Lag,I can giv u d lady's no or if u'r in Abuja,I can get frm my sister d no d lady dat makes her own.If dat helps

Hi Jade, I'll like to have this kaduna woman number o. Breastfeeding made me shed a lot of weight, and I'm naturally slim before, so its kind of worst now. Aldou I just started taking 'pregnancare breastfeeding' because I was tired of shedding weight. I'm willing to try the kunnu mayb I'll add weight more. And I'll like to know if I can still add weight taking kunnu, even if I stop breastfeeding, I'm planning to stop soon, my son is a year old already

Lastly, my son's leg looks a bit bend (bow leg), I read about giving babies seven seas cod liver oil, but my problem is, my son's bone is very strong and the nurse in our hospital told me the drug is for strong bones. Hence my concern, I'll like to read the view of mothers on this.

Hummingbird: abeg leave d woman jare,labour never catch her jare

My dear! I cudn't leav her lastnyt.Her husbnd was dis close 2cryin 4me 2stay back cos he doesn't knw he was confused.We did agreement prayer;prayed psalm 91;27;35;23&alas,God sent help.D nyt duty midwife did wot sh called sweepin of d perineum (woteva dat means).I gues it was painful cos my frnd screamed eh! But it helped.Then d dr ordered them 2put somthng in d drip.B4 we knew it;c baby's head.Baby boy delivered by 11pm.Although he was weak,they put him on oxygen but now,he's off oxygen.I'v cooked d hot water pepper soup.

limsycutey: Seriously, I wonder what they teach in some schools these days. My neighbor's daughter is eight and she can barely read, her spoken English too is 30/100. I told her to read the title of a film for me "Doctor Bello" and she couldn't, according to her she just finished basic four, it's so sad.

My dear,if I enroll my child in a sch&i c he/sh is regressin instead of improvin;I won't even wait 4d session 2finish,I'l look 4another sch joor.At 2yrs+ my neice was recitin A is for apple.Sh'l tak ruler&b poinin on d calender.So at 8&just completed grade 4;if ur child can't read or spell,wot is sh stil doin at dat same sch?There're thngs a child is expected 2knw at a certain age.Parents hav 2put their eyes down&not b in denial sayin mayb he may pick or they'l improve.I don't hav such patience abeg.Time wasted can neva b recovered.If d sch is doin their best&d child is stil not pickin,I'l get a home tutor&i myself wil do my own work.Cos som kids,d only thng they knw is cartoons&games.Hmmm

looolll, I dnt eat much o,rily lost my apetite for food,something I remember I avnt taken breakfast by 2pm,n its getting me worried,m losin weight..n dos boys are sucking me dry..

@jadewilliam, your friend is strong o, when my water broke and labor didn't start, I had to be induced with pitocin, it made me have continuous contractions, no break in between, it wasn't funny at all. I was screaming and begging for CS, even though we couldn't afford it then at 350k, I told my husband to go and borrow that I was going to look for how to pay back lol. then my baby now pooped inside again, I was so scared. We were both stressed out, she was tired when she came out, she didn't cry at first, the doctor had to beat her.

Thank you so much o. I'll give her a call later in the week. Yes, he is 1year+ you and one other mother on this thread recommend Complan for me, because I use to give him peak only. I talked to my doc about the weight issue, and we concluded the breastfeeding might be the reason, aldou I don't really take sweet things and all that, which shld make adding weight easy. I'll give ur other suggestions a try too. Thank you!
