Nikkygold4life: [@=okirewaju] as for d boil, google natural ways to deal with it without having to use antibiotics which isn't good for children unless d case is critical. As for ur baby's poop pattern its absolutely normal for some EBfed babies to go for days even weeks before they pass stool at some point. We even discussed dis yesterday with d nurses when I went for my baby's immunization @ UCH. The reason is dt bosom milk is 70% water and may leave little or no waste product for babies to pass so ur baby is perfect. If u so desire her to pass stool, u can achieve dis naturally without having to buy any medicine, just increase ur fibre intake, foods like beans, pawpaw, pineapple, oranges, vegetable can be taken with moderation cos u don't want to irritate ur baby's intestine by causing her to purge if its too much.then as for the grunts, and cry, ur baby needs to be burped often after EACH feed. When babies are trying to latch on to feed, they swallow lots of air, its d air that forms bubbles in baby's tommy causing discomfort and grunting, also if u take drinks dt has gas, it fills ur baby's tommy resulting in discomfort. U don't need to give her drugs, I've tried this with my second son, it wrks. Burp ur baby after each feed, reduce gassy drinks and eat right, trust me, u won't have to visit d pharmacy for a loooong time. Goodluck
Wow,a detailed one indeed-thanks a lot

Apply coconut oil often, I used dis on my son wen he was 2 wks, for diaper rash and d one like balls, in days they dissappered. Coconut oil is actually antibacterial. Just google coconut oil uses.

Good evening mamas! Pls, I need help o! My ten month old is teething, 2 up and 2 down already but I noticed they (teeth) are not crystal white o! What can I do to make them white? I don't give her sugery things except giving her biscuits occasionally when I'm eating. Even that self, I have since stopped when I discovered the first set that came out were not white. Some one should tell me what to do, as it is giving me so much concern. Thanks.

You women can be very funny. I advertised coconut oil and placed my phone number,u didn't call or ask but the site that sells maybe refined or processed you re willing to buy.
The coconut oil I sell is the recommended Alexial oil that lagos state general hospital use for delivery and cleaning of the baby after bath.

All the best in your quest for coconut oil.
Note:I. Just opened the site,and. Its opening. They have variates of product.hurry up and buy.

maxiflexi: Daycare has been a huge help but my 10 month daughter learnt to suck finger from her classmates. I tap her hand whenever she does it & she stops for a while. She completely stopped during august break when they were fewer kids, but now, she can't sleep without sucking her fingers!!! She is there from 7.30-6pm every weekday. How do I stop her? Do I change the daycare?
There's nothing much u can do cos sh spends most of d day there&as long as sh's stil around dat persn dat sucks hand,sh'l continue.

Children learn by sight.Let's hope both sh&d child in her sch wil out grow d habit but my advice is dat wen sh's wit u,b removing her hand wen sh's sucking.U can b wearing her socks wen sh's sleepin.If sh sucks d socks&its unpleasant,sh'l remove d hand.

If u change creche,how ar u sure dat there won't b a child dat sucks hand there.Even if there's none at dat tym,they might admit one lateron moreova,there's no need of takin her frm creche 2creche.If sh's adapting well there&her care givers ar good,u can continue wit dem. Goodluck

Oh really, the pharmacist in my area also tried to help out but he said that chicken pox vaccine is now mixed with MMR and my son had taken MMR already.
I just tire 4 this vaccine search
iamteekaygal: The current chicken pox vaccine is mixed with MMR, but the issue we have is my son already took the MMR vaccine 3months ago. The nurse in charge in R JOLAD said if it's been up to 6weeks he took the MMR shot, then he can take it again

Hence, we are going for the mixed shot. Just tot I should get back to the house. Cheers!
If ur child already had MMR vaccine,y don't u look 4where 2get d single chicken pox vaccine&not d mixed one.Forget wot these ignorant nurses tel u.Anyway,I hope ur paediatrician approved it b4 u went 4d vaccine though

picki: Hello beautiful mothers in the house, am trying so hard to exclusively breast feed my 4months baby since i work. Pumping manually with Avent has not been easy. So pls does anyone know the cost of Ameda or Medela electric breast pump and where i can get them. I read reviews on Google that they are very good. Kindly advise whether to buy single or double pump as am also trying to cut cost.
It depends on d price of each of dem but I prefer d double.Hav seen ppl using d double.

That manual avent boob pump is so hard 2use.Wot u'l do is: Wen u get 2work,drink enuf water,malt,woteva fluid u com across 2mak d bre*st full then wen u com back frm work,u 1st of al express lik 2feeder&store in d fridge b4 u start bre*stfeedin.Then wen u wake up midnyt&1st thng in d morning,u do d same.

B4 u leav 4work,u'l realise u hav 4/5 of dat avent feeding bottle filled wit breastmilk whch wil b enuf 4him/her b4 u com home frm work dependin on wen u com back.It work 4me though.Dat's how I managed d manual bre*st pump

Well according to research,coconut has this particular acid that keeps baby's natural immunity intact after delivery. Instead of washing it off the skin after bathing,coconut oil locks the pores and keeps baby safe.
I'm not a medical personal pls accept my little explanation.
Thanks
