Mamatwiny, with the little I have read from other mama please give your LOs formula. I recommend Similac.

When I had my baby and my breast was not enough for my baby, my doctor had to advised me to introduce formula. So please for the sake of your baby, kindly introduce formula.

Nigeria's bad situation is not just a result of bad governance....but also a result of bad attitude and mentality of citizens.

You are right bro. The citizens are the most undisciplined people with worst attitude on this planet. Nigerians needs to change themselves before complaining of government

Mama this food flask na elele, 24 hrs hotness better than Dragon totem..tested and trusted

I am using this one too for my daughter and i can testify that its very okay

The solution to Nigeria is to kill them all. All set of idiots ruling us since 1960 should be buried alive and Nigeria would gain its freedom again

Good evening mamas

My princess came from creche with these scars. Her teacher said she sat on bleach while walking into the bathroom. I'm so angry ehnnn.. Please what can I use on it

This is not good nd its not fair. What the hell. Please the school should be closed down. What the hell is wrong with them. Quick recovery to her oo.

I am just angry

Mariangeles:
Exactly!
Nigerians don't know jack about Ghanaians but Ghanaians are more current on what's happening in NAIJA!
Chale na obsession !
Even you don slow like them...
A REAL NAIJA guy is NEVER slow...you snooze, you lose!
You must be Ghanaian...never mind your monicker

The guy is obviously a Ghanaian but his obsession with Nigerian is just too much even to the extent of naming himself emeka. Chale paaaaaa

TheCongo2:
My friend, there is no such thing as stupid or dumb argument in a discussion.... there is always a iota of true in each party, so please enough with the abusive language... we are all here to relax and learn.

Furthermore, I just went through Akorkor 's profile. There is nothing there to suggest she is a lovePeddler as indicated by your post. ( you have edited the post afterwards).
Where did you get your facts from? Does it mean anyone who isn't in alignment with your chain of thought is a lovePeddler?

Anyway, let us not derail this thread and keep it accessible to everyone by avoiding the strong language

Thank you my brother. God bless you

emeka1101:
You see how stupid you sound?
You are not just stupid but dumb and foolish as well.

I should ask who?

Is everything not on the internet?
Education in Ghana from kindergarten to Senior high is free in Ghana.

This is a reality that is known to everybody so stop being a fool and get rid of ignorance making you look like a fool.

Foolish smelly LovePeddler

See this one displaying @TheCongo2. @bolded, you know whom you are referring that to in your lineage.

ifyalways:
Your friends send their wards to private schools [/b]because their wards didn't pass the entrance exams to [b]top and highly competitive Ghana senior high school.

My grand daughter is currently at Accra girls and boy, she stands tall and proud with her siblings here at one British private school collecting lots of $$$ per annum

No one is running Nigeria bad here. The country is BAD. No one was comparing Nigeria with Ghana, at least not me.

Ghana is not perfect but you see the citizens, Government, everyone trying to move their country forward. Drop trash on the floor and get abused even by a kid to pick it up, jump queues and get thrown out, get caught collecting bribe/abusing your position/breaking work ethics and get sacked, probed and imprisoned. Can same be said of Naija? (Since you have somehow roped me in into this Ghana V Naija thingy) my tenant in Lekki by_passed the meter I installed in the house and I got to know. I have called and emailed eko disco for over 2 weeks endlessly to report the matter but guess what they did? NOTHING. Try and touch your ECG connection in Ghana.

My sister, no one is comparing Ghana to Nigeria here because there is nothing to compare but Nigeria should not rush to Ghana thinking that all is well here. ECG connection, your country people touch it to. So no one is a saint,but unfortunately, Nigerians(Especially the youth) love to watch their linen outside so much for the world to see.

I am not saying Nigeria is not going through rough road right now but things would surely get better one day.

Very funny @ the bolded. Anyway, let your grandchildren enjoy

ifyalways:
There's no over hyping. Cape coast is miles, thousands of miles ahead ilesa. Actually it's an insult to attempt to compare both.

Good road,Power, security, good governance aside, do you talk about it's brimming tourist attractions? Cape coast have more ngos with foreign volunteers yearly than the whole of Nigeria :- FACT.

We have not read or heard of those obroni volunteers getting kidnapped or missing. Try that in Nigeria. I run with a group of Chevron expats here in Lagos and on every run, we have dedicated number of mopol armed to the teeth as escort still man heart dey shake.

Whole of Nigeria? mbok. I hear you ohhh. Unfortunately, i dont have any point to buttress this your FACT but i am 100% certain that is not true. No one is doubting the tourist there but please spare me. There is nothing fancy in cape coast apart from the tourist attraction. Dry as hell, with bad roads, primitive people everywhere. For security, i dont live there so i can ascertain the security in that area.

ifyalways:
Cape coast is not that bad na. Cape coast is my place o, don't diss . Okay seriously , cape coast ,imo is just like Calabar, not Ilesa pa'cho wai

Cape coast might not be as lively as Accra but good road network, constant light and a fairly okay nightlife.

I hear you. I tell you what i noticed and see. I will never over hype or say things i am not sure of. Anyways, people view things differently mi pa'cho wai

Mizwisdom:
I thought most public schools are free in Nigeria, have they started paying school free?

Its still free my sister. People wont see that but always say this, that about Nigeria. Nigeria may not be good for some people but it is always a home for a lot of us

ifyalways:
He's very right.

Education up to senior high school is very free in Ghana. The whole of Ghana not just Accra. It used to be just up to Junior high school but Nana Akufo Ado made a campaign promise of extending it to senior high school and that he did!!!!

The only hitch is that slots for Accra schools goes to the most intelligent students, the least academically inclined are posted to the villages and their parents would rather want their kids to school in Accra.

Comparing Ghanaian and Nigerian government schools is like comparing light and darkness. No basis. Ghana takes education very serious. They are not there yet but they are building structures and advancing, one step at a time.

Okay madam. I hear you. If education is so free why do the average Ghanaian want to send their children to private school. The primary education is a disaster as stated by some Ghanaian i have worked with and i am sure they are not lying. And this is one of the reason why most of them are working hard to send their children to school.

Also for your information, the free education in ghana is for newly entry student. The old students are still paying and thats why some Ghanaian are not having it funny

And do you also know that in some state in Nigeria that education is free? Up to secondary school too. Yes!

So we should stop painting our own country bad because whatever we say here will surely be used against us in the future

TheCongo2:
I am always shocked each time I read words like idiot, stupid or foolish on some threads.

Do you know that this thread could be used as an interesting topic of an academic essay?

Would you use words like stupid or idiot in an academic essay?

Speaking of being an idiot or a fool, this is something I have learned long ago:

Someone may be an idiot or stupid for not seeing the world under your perception. Conversely, you may be the one who is idiot or stupid for not seeing the world under their perception.

Interresting topic by the way. Please keep the rating to G as in General Audience. And don't escalate the rating to R as in Restricted. The rating is based on the words that are been used.

I hear you. Before you crucify me, check the first word i quoted that warrant such clapback.

emeka1101:
Try to be sensible at least. Couldn't you have googled to check first before exhibiting your ignorance here? Mumu

You are very stupid for your statement. I can see that you are politically foolish. Ask them if they execute the nonsense thing they put on paper for gullible idiot like you.

buddy221:
brother dont argue what you dont know. make your research first. im a nigerian. but ghana is well organized than us. bros i swear to you. dont just argue.

I hear you. How many years have you been living in Ghana. Smh. I know Ghana well and anything I say here it's what I know.

emeka1101:
All these trash came out from you?

So why are you still in Ghana in the first place?

First of all Ghana is far better than nigeria .
That’s a fact and you can’t dispute that .

Secondly Ghana is expensive to nigerians because the naira has no value in Ghana.
The naira becomes useless as soon as it enters the shores of Ghana so obviously it’s gonna be expensive for you.
People from better countries with stronger currencies won’t say what you are saying .


You only found good roads in Accra?
What a dickhead. Hahahaha.
All the good roads in Ghana are not even in Accra.
So you think the roads in nigeria are better than those in Ghana?
How many better roads are in nigeria?
Even in Abuja and Lagos ,how many good roads are there?
There are more good and better roads in Ghana than in nigeria and that’s a fact.
Comparing roads in nigeria to that of Ghana is even laughable.


There’s constant electricity in Ghana and that’s the traits of all serious and advanced countries.

You can’t be comparing your country to others when you even lack common electricity.
You said the only thing Ghanaians can boast of is light.
At least that’s something most African countries lack so it’s worth boasting of.

But what can nigeria boast of apart from lack of electricity,abject poverty,insecurity and corruption?

Ghana police are far better than nigeria police.


Education in Ghana is not expensive.
From kindergarten to Senior high school is free in Ghana , you only pay fees when you get admission to further your education.

Ghana education is of quality that’s why Ghanaian schools and students are always first in WASSCE.

Ghana has the best education system in west Africa and among the best in Africa.

You invited your friend to join you in the village where you reside in Ghana and you are making noise over it meanwhile the worst places in west African are all located in nigeria .

Why do you think there are countless nigerians running to Ghana in daily basis and not the other way round ?

Comparing nigeria to Ghana is a great and big insult to Ghana and Ghanaians ,trust me.

Please tell me the name of the school so that I can tell my Ghanaian driver to register his kids free. Liars everywhere.

@OP, if you are so angry about you being a Nigeria please direct your anger to politicians because they are the one that causes Nigeria present situation. Stop calling Nigeria a shithole or zoo country.

And as part good roads, Accra road and Lagos should be compare not even have good roads up to Abuja. Mind you Accra is the country capital of ghana while Abuja is of Nigeria. And as at today Accra can never be compare to Abuja in terms of good roads.
Let me tell buttress my point on how expensive life is in Ghana. I paid my driver 700ghc monthly which is like 62k that some graduate in Nigeria collect and survive very well while my driver finish his money before the end of the month by collecting it little by little.

Even Ghanaians are looking for way out of their country. It's not easy for most of them. And you may see may new cars on their road, yes, that's loan. Most of them will pay loan till they die not a curse but that's how expensive life is in Ghana.

I fuel my car 200ghc every week that is if I don't want to go anywhere else than office oo and this 200ghc is not full tank. If I want to fill my thank I spend $100. Yes, 100dollar, you heard me right.

So the best way to enjoy Ghana is if you are here on transfer or on contract or if you have a legitimate business.

Also, don't plan on living in Accra because the rent is expensive. Even average Ghanaians live far from west and east legion, spintex, dome, Christian village(most Nigeria working class and student stay here).

Enough now. Bye

tensazangetsu20:
You haven't even finished. You didn't talk of the horrible food, the extreme hot sun. The floods everywhere when it rains. The boring people and their extremely boring women . Comparing Nigeria to Ghana is like comparing a crayfish to a shark. We have our problems but still we better pass

Don't mind the OP, he's not telling people the truth. It's just like comparing Accra to Abuja. Only Accra is fine. If you go to cape coast it's just like you are in ilesa osun state. Nothing special and not hating. Been living here for the past 3 years. On appointment though and can't wait to return home biko

@lessonslearned, pele.
Like hunniesuzzie mentioned, i dont trust nanny too personally especially the ones i can not monitored myself.

So your best bet is creche. If i can do it you can. I dont live around and sometimes i dont even see any member of family including my husband for up to 3month sometimes. I do all my house work myself until recently i hired someone to wash for me every weekend. Apart from that, i do everything myself..... Solution is find a good creche, drop your baby off in the morning and pick him up in the evening when returning from work.

Wish you well

Good pm wonderful mamas..I trust all our los are fine.

I can't wait for the school holiday to end o, i'm tired of[b] beating [/b]and shouting. Yesterday, dh wanted to take his multivitamins and discovered an empty sachet, he queried my toddlers and they confessed to have eaten the drugs while ransacking the house , the older one confesed to have swallowed five tablets at once while her younger brother swallowed two (this children will not kill me o), come and see beating from their dad,it took my intervention to stop the beating. Now we're just scared that they have taken over dose of the multivitamins. We're thinking of taking them to see a dr this evening.......who else is having a fill of this holiday season with their toddlers or i'm i the only one? They're too hyper-active that i'm just tired

Teachers are really trying....

Please take it easy on them. Multivitamin shouldnt do any harms. Thank God is not a dangerous drugs. Better still, your hospital option is good to have rest of mind

They are just kids and beating sometimes dont actually change kids but talk to them with straight face does most of the time. Alot of us went through beating in school and all when we were younger and it wasnt really a nice experience.

God bless you mama

I saw something about Dano full cream milk on their facebook page, that insinuated that dano full cream is from 2 years and above. Let me attach it.

Really!!! I just chartered the thing for house oo

Biko she must finish this chartered one which is likely to finish end of year.

She doesn’t drink it straight though. Only add it to her various food.

Dano should pack well and next time write on their pack the suitable age. Unprofessional nutritionist everywhere.

my surest mamas i need your advise, my baby(1yr 4months) has been stooling for like two weeks now, its yellowish and runny like mucus, have taken her to the hospital and she was given iv injection, pleased on ORS&Zinc but her stool is still not back to normal
Any advise please? The doctor said she will be fine but I think its taken too Long IMO...
secondly what kind of milk do I mix with her golden morn? Is it normal peak milk or the peak 123?

Alot of mama have responded to your queries but i will like to chip this in too.
Firstly, take her to doctor for test. Let them test the stool to be sure of what the problem is.
Secondly, Golden morn is for children above 3 years.
Thirdly, from mothers experience here, majority complained that peak 123 makes some children stool so i would advise you to go for Dano Full cream milk.

All the best dear

Dear Mamas

I am new here and a FTM, please kindly respond to my questions please
1. My 7 weeks old son fell from a height of about 4 feet, I took him to the hospital and the doctor simply carried him and said he is fine, please is there something else I need
to do

2. When mixing baby food must I follow the instructions as stated or make it a bit watery to avoid constipation.

Please sabi mamas help me.

Firstly, if you have this light balm(cant remember name now) or shear butter, you can use it to rub his body(Please do it lightly after warm bath). You may also give paracetamol to avoid pain.

2. Let the baby food be water to avoid constipation as you stated and follow the instruction on the tin.

All the best

Good day mothers in the house. I'm a new & ftm & also new to this thread. I have a 2weeks old baby who sleeps all thru the night without waking up to eat & its getting me scared & worried as I've been told that babies her age are supposed to eat every 2-3hrs. No matter what method I try to engage her - play, change diaper, force breast & feeding bottle, she wouldn't budge. I'm quite worried & depressed because she was born quite small. I breastfeed & also complement with formula. I'm quite worried because she still has same physique as we brought her home 2wks ago. Mothers, please what should I do?

Worry less my dear. Your LO may not be a night eater. Just make sure you feed her well during the day and at night.

kelizosuy:
Good evening mamas..

My princess has been coughing since we came back from the hospital last month. The thing is she coughs basically at the middle of the night till morning but doesn't cough during the day. I gave her cefuroxime last week and it's still persisting. I dunno if I should give take her back there or just leave it since it's just night.
Please any Home remedy for cough?

I think some mama prescribe a home remedy back then. From iomoge and Zaynie (Hopefully I am correct)

Mix palm oil and little sugar and give your DD. Once or twice a day.

NB: I haven’t used this before but mamas here have testified that it worked well for their LOs.

Woke up this morning and saw some mosquito bites on my baby which I suspect must have been trapped in her cot net despite fleeting, hence the multiple bites on her arms and legs. Do I need to take her to Hospital, she doesnt appear uncomfortable though. And how . Thanks

He won’t have malaria. Most mosquito bite doesn’t lead to malaria and his own maybe too. Just try and check for symptoms like high fever. If you noticed any of this, take him to doctor for blood test.

As for the swelling, if you have original shear butter you can put it.

I think buying property to me is the best way forward. With all these government wahala in bringing this and that. Biko, i cant shout. Buy is more preferable for me because i have build before and i see that buying is easier. Just find a professional developer and buy

lots of oyinbo, and celebrity now do ivf to get twins or triplets. no big deal in it. except u can't afford it.

I know about IVF please and I know lot of people do it. But it’s a big deal for me.

And I can afford it if I want to do it.
