Mamas how Una dey? Please my son's left eye is a little bit dim like something is wrong with it. Its even dripping water and specks is coming out. I'm think of observing it for like two days. What do u guys think? Any experiences?. Thanks in advance

My dear go and see a Dr ASAP..

Good evening mamas,my son stools every 4 days now. He gets really uncomfortable before he stools,passes gas that smells and when he eventually stools it smells so bad and it's pasty and it's plenty. He takes more of breastmilk and nan1 just at night. He is 11 weeks old too. Secondly, I still get my pant stained, blood is bright red once in a while is it normal?. I did a c-section.

It's normal for babies to stool every other day especially breastfed babies. My daughter use to go once a week until she started solids at 6months then it was everyday.
My new LO has just started going every 2days.
It's definitely going to smell bad, it's 4days na
PP bleeding could last this long. It's normal.

NoQualms1:
Hello mamas, my 9 month old baby stools at least 3 times daily for more than a week now. I am bothered about it, is it normal? The poop is always between Grey and black colour.
Some 11 days ago, I noticed two upper teeth were coming down, as at today only one has grown. The second refused to show. Has anyone experienced this before? I'm wondering what could have happened that made the second one not grow again.
Also she always try to scratch her ears especially after taking her bath, what could be the ish? Thanks mamas.

It could be an infection or just the several ish associated with teething.
As for the other tooth, don't worry it would come at its own time. It could even take a month before it comes up full.
Her ears... She could be having an ear infection. I suggest you go and see a pediatrician.

IyawoToBe:
Was meaning to say this too. My pead in Lifeline told me antibiotics is a NO NO for infants, after one quack general practitioner prescribed antibiotics and adult antacid for my baby at two months. May God save us from the hands of these dokita alaberes

This^
That's y I insist on seeing a pediatrician for my kids...the one that annoys me is every fever is malaria and typhoid, no lab test to prove it and start prescribing drugs mitchewwww

Deezou:

Hmmm..so many pages to read.
@ Ahnie and blessed twins all I owe you two is prayers that God would give you wisdom. I don't have anything extra to add to what other mamas have said.

@Tyconcepts..Happy birthday dear. Don't worry Deezou go give you BDay mate.

All the late comers, una welcome I believe your team captain Abi prefect has told you what to do.

Keji3:
Good day mamas. Please when can i start using a baby carrier my baby is 8 weeks old, my mum is insisting on not using at all so as to avoid bow legs would appreciate ur inputs.
Also please i need creche around agidingbi,alausa or ogba anyone with good personal recommendation i would appreciate i'm resuming soon and need to pick as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

using a baby carrier has nothing to do with bow legs. My baby is almost 4weeks and I started using one at 2weeks. + this is #2

@missmalachi... Beautiful BS.
But I no see our princess pisure ooo. No wahala.

@popri...congrats dear.

firsttymum:

stadora:
pls can u gv me an example of skimmed milk, or u min all ds peak, loya, or real milk sold in d mkt?

Skimmed milk is usually written on the pack. E.g Dano, it's has both full cream and skimmed milk( Dano slim) versions.
So look out for the skimmed milk version of any brand.

@missmalachi..wish you safe & supernatural delivery, you'll labour with ease.

feddy27:
Sabi mamas, I greet o... pls help a FTM. I introduced my 4 month old to Cow and Gate Rice cereal on Thursday. He pooped on Thursday, since then he has not pooped! Was trying to poop ytday bt I noticed it ws strong and could not come out. I've massaged his stomach, gave water to drink yet nothing. Please how can I help him?

In addition to massaging the tummy, lie him flat on the bed and move his legs in circular motion as if you're riding a bicycle..
You can also use your finger to spread his b bum & pour warm water directly
On his anus( old wives tale but it works )

1. Consider switching to another kind of cereal ( oatmeal or wheat) cos rice cereal is low in fiber.
2. Ensure you mix the cereal with adequate water. Don't make it too thick.
3. I think you should consider waiting till 6months to start solids. He's system would be better prepared for it.

I'm so happy to read this. God would see you through.
Just like Modath said..give us your A/C num if you're comfortable with putting it up here.

ozycy:
"Wondering what it was" even when it wasn't addressed to her. Hmmm

I was speechless when she said that...

ejisky:
Since she is your host you have to thread carefully. Just make it clear to her that she shouldnt use it when filing her taxes and that if she does you would know. Taxes are filed first quarter of the year; ensure you monitor the SSN since it is possible and take necessary actions if need be.

favoredgal:
Pls don't para, vex or shout for someone hat opened the doors of their home to you. There are better ways to handle issues

Would definitely find a way to handle it cos this family has been super nice and God sent to me and I won't want this to ruin our friendship.
I just didn't expect this.

ejisky:
Opened ... how come? something is amiss... My sister hung on to my baby's SSN for almost a year and i got it unopened.. You can find out if there is a way to notify the authorities that you got it with the envelop opened. Else you just hope and pray his SSN is not used for doggy ish... Pele

dere5:
Ha! that na rubish now.How come your host opened a mail that was not addressed to him or her. What is to stop him or her from copying the SSN number before handing the mail over to you.
He or she is a suspect,shikina!

Phema:
Oh dear, something is definitely up. Check through Tvegas' posts, you will see a link he posted on how to check your baby's SSN history. Check to see if it has already been activated and call the appropriate authorities.
Don't fret or confront your aunty yet until you do your checks.

zeezahbee:
That's bull crap. I think I have a post about how to report any activity. You need to para, vex and shout for your host. Tell them you will involve the police and they should have it in mind that you will monitor the activity of the SSN. The person knew it was SSN and opened, wrote out the number and end up filing the next tax with it. . Voila !!
I will repost how to detect Ssn fraud.
Pele

She opened it. Said she was wondering what it was. Like really
I don't know if she copied it. She actually mentioned filing for taxes before I even gave birth sef.
Now this...

Let me rant...
My host handed me an already opened envelop. Turns out it's my baby's SSN card.
I'm really pissed right now.

julzz:
Also has anyone had issues flying with qatar airways at 34weeks? Thanks.

Avoid flying with Qatar if you can.
had a nasty experience with them as you have to get an approval from their Dr in Doha to fly after 32 weeks.
I went to the airport with my belle & bags everyday for 3days cos according to them...

Day 1..your medif forms came late and you can't fly today(I followed instructions on the website)

Day 2.. ( after rescheduling) you we're not booked for this flight initially so you can't travel.

Day 3.. The Dr said he can't approve you to fly cos you're 36weeks today. ( how?? I was 34+)

I ended up buying another ticket and flew United..in fact I just got a refund last week from Qatar after plenty calls and emails back and forth.

If you must fly Qatar at 34 weeks, call them when you're 32weeks and ask them to send you all the necessary forms you need to fill.
Make sure you fill and return the forms one week to your travel date to get an approval.
And forget their website.

I got a USD refund yesterday on my GTB card at 225/$1, the same rate I was charged initially.

Stadora dear, I understand where you're coming from. But support from family is very important at this point in time.
If this lady can follow you to your parents place and help explain things to them, that way you won't have to face the alone cos You can't continue to hide forever.
What happens when you give birth?
How long can you hide the fact that you have a child?
It's better to deal with it now and if you decided to let your pple know pray about it fervently and as God for positive and warm reception from them. There's nothing God cannot do. You'll be surprised.
We would do as much as we can to help.

stadora:
both if I May say, Cos I dnt hv a house of my own

Where exactly in Abj are you at?
Like other mamas have said you need to answer these questions so we can help you better.

Anak123:
Thank u so much. Everyone thinks m overreacting. No hospital or scan yet. My last period was on the 4/7. Normal flow. Don't know which hospital to use sef. I stay at ikeja. Or should I just get the scan done first? First time ooo. Btw v only felt nauseous once so far

I think you might be bloated. It happens and could make you look like you have a bump.
You can do a scan to find out what's really going on.

Team mates,come help ur teamie o

Just to add to what other mamas have said.
1.Avoid using any kind of soap or feminine wash. Use water to wash ( and no, it's not going to smell . Stopped using feminine wash when the dryness was too much and it helped)
2.Get a lube e.g KY jelly.
3. Initiate kpekus sometimes it lets you direct the flow of things plus you go don dey plan am since morning so your mind go dey there.
