Congratulations mamas that just delivered.
Safe delivery to those of us still catwalking the inevitable duck walk

Pls those with wrappers on their hospital list, each wrapper is how many yards?
Let me know how I will cut the 6yards I bought

Those that bought mofix diaper or already using it for their new born, what size is ideal for the first few weeks?

Cc; mumsgirl27 and all mamas

I cut 6 yards into 3 that's 2 yards each then I bought molfix size 1 for the first 2 weeks.

Bomgirl:
Pls, who has given rotavirus vaccine? Did your baby react to it?
We are to get our first dose tomorrow even though we are 11 weeks. I just want to be prepared.
Cc mamas Liftedhands and nwanneukwu Lioha (I envy you as you get am free )

Yes one of my children reacted to it by passing sour smelling poo like 3-4 times but just for that day the other didn't react to it.

Adorablewifey I follow your diary bumper to bumper and heavens knows how happy I am for you and your hubby, congratulations dearie this one is here to stay. You have always been in my prayers since the last miscarriage.

It takes time. When i got my manual pump, i tried it that first day and got nothing, i just assumed i had gotten a fake. The next day, after i had my bath and did hot water massage on my boobs, i tried again and it worked.

So just allow it run its course first.

I abandoned my manual breast pump cos I didn't get the desired result maybe I should try it again.

hunniesuzie:
Try another formula and see. Also check if she doesn't take it when another person feeds her
I don't know much about eela/alefo but for diaper rash if sudocrem isn't working it may be reaction to diaper. Try to change her more frequently, air her bum out sometimes

Sudocrem was like magic for me

Thank ma'am.
We have tried different person feeding but she still refuses it, might have to buy another formulae.

Mamas I've come again o.

My 8 weeks daughter suddenly stopped taking nan 1, I've tried everything including spoon feeding her she only wants breast which is not possible as it does not satisfy her, her twin bro accepts the nan so I don't know what the problem is.

What can I use to cure rashes (eela and alefo) it is dealing dealing with my son and diaper rashes on my daughter's bum. We have used sudocream yet it's not clearing, we also tried caldersene powder which seems working but it keeps reappearing.

Make una help my ministry before rashes will disfigure my children.

hunniesuzie:
Not a fan at alllllllllll, if Royan is an option I've heard it's better

Thank you so much Royan is not an option cos hmo said dey are no longer using them.

Good evening mamas, how is waddling congratulations to those that have dropped.

Cc. All mamas

imurboss:
Exactly, that's the same phc i went to.....chai i saw something that day with their delays. We left around 2pm that day, i was no 56 or so.......it wasn't a funny experience sha but the good thing is that we got what we went there for at no cost.

Exactly mama Ejima, I kept telling myself since it's free I don't mind waiting till 7pm and that's how I saved 18k.
I wonder why they have it only in shomolu LGA. My regards to your boys.

Haleematm:

lioha:
Is oloja health center same as Ambode health center? If not pls give me direction on how to get there.
Was is actually free?
On what day did you go? All this and many more I will like to know pls. We will be 6weeks next week

Seriously I don't know if ambode is same as oloja, I was actually going to ambode health center but ended up at oloja cos I used taxify and we were using google map to look for ambode health center, while looking out for ambode I just saw a small sign post of oloja health center and I told driver to go there.

It's located on akinsola street off sungas street in bariga I can't give a better description cos I no know road, I used taxify to and fro.

It's free except for #20 I paid for the news paper they used in checking weight.

I went on a Tuesday. Try to go before 9 so they answer you immediately they start, be prepared o cos they waste as per government workers now. I was no 19 yet I left there around 12pm.

[quote author=olubankemi post=66301333][/quote]Please I sent you a pm.

You see that talk ehn, is what frustrates me. I stay in a town with no relatives from either my side nor my hubby. You can imagine the way i get calls daily to ask if he is sucking.

Anyway i have a testimony my ds sucked today . All day has been breastfeeding day oo, i woke up today, prayed about it and said today is today. Although he is still learning to latch well but I'm glad there's progress. How can i help him latch better?

Thanks to all mamas who gave me advices. I appreciate you all.

Cc nnekaike

Congratulations dear,

In my own mil even termed it and said my baby is irritated that's y she preferred expressed milk but everything is story now. The only way to help him is to allow him suck more often as practice makes perfect.

Weldone.

rvpbae:
Mamas why won't my baby latch? I'm sad and depressed it really hurts. I've tried and tried. I express to feed him but i want him to suck himself.

He is almost one week old. I supplement with nan1. Please everybody should help me. Abeg

Sorry ma'am, I'm sure other mamas would have responded but let me chook mouth too since my baby was like yours too.

The only solution is to keep putting him to breast when he is not too hungry so he can learn how to suck. My daughter didn't suck on her own till after two weeks breastfeeding leaves the two of us frustrated that I had to put it in prayer.
Just keep expressing and putting him to breast till he becomes a pro. Don't let people's talk get to you cos that's one of the things that frustrated me.
Weldone ma.

Thanks queensnow and imurboss my children finally got the rota immunisation at oloja health center shomolu yesterday, your response to my frequent questions really helped.

Mamas please since DS spat out the vaccine though not all will it still work? The nurse was just shouting (one of the reasons why I don't like health centers) and telling me I wasted their money like it's hers I felt really bad.
Then since yesterday their poo has been smelling sour kind of and it's more frequent, could it be the vaccine that caused it?

Motherhood is one tedious job I swear.

Excel16:
Thanks mummy,trust the twins are doing great,God bless them ,still looking out for the twin baby cot or any suggesstion,do your twin share a cot?

I don't use cot for them o, I use these small beds with net cover so I just put the two on our bed which is big enough to accommodate us. I never planned using cot cos of the stress of getting up to feed them in the night though it's still same now.

hunniesuzie:
Pele. Just keep mopping their bodies. Give PCM to manage fever

Its in the card. Penta, pcv, opv, rota I think. Not near my card now so I can't check

Don't know what HIB is oh

Thanks ma'am I got it already.

JGracious:
Pele. The twins will be fine. hope you have administered pcm?

10wks vaccine includes opv, rotavirus, penta and pcv.

Hib is an old name and it is now contained in the penta vaccine.

cheers and kisses to the twins

Yes I gave pcm already.

Ok. Thanks for the explanation I've seen it in the card self, we will go for rotavirus on Tuesday.

Excel16:

Congratulations, welcome to the club.

booqee:
BTW, I may be wrong but I think its still early to use p.belt for cs

Thank you. Like other mamas advised too I'll see my doc before I do anything.

Sorry to bother you teamie, what is the pediatrics service at royan hospital like? My HMO wants me to switch to another hospital and I'm considering royan.

booqee:
My baby says hi to all the wonderful moms here..

Please what's the normal temperature for a baby, at what point and above is it too high, and also too low for baby less than three months. Her body gets hot sometimes (not extremely though) that i don't know if I should be worried or not.

I want to get this type of thermometer below too, are they reliable?

Hello teamie, this type of thermometer is ok it's what I use too.

Thanks everybody that responded to my post, I'm grateful.

My children are not finding this 6 weeks vaccine funny at all, they have been crying and cranky since.

hunniesuzzie please what vaccine do they give at 10 weeks at IHL cos we have scheduled to come back at 10 weeks and which vaccine is HIB biko?

6 weeks of God's goodness and motherhood bliss, it's not been easy but these children makes the stress worth it...
Meet Mofiyinfoluwa and Moyinoluwa @ 6weeks

Pix going down soon.

Good morning mamas please I have some questions

1. My DDs nose is wheezing like she has catarrh though no sneezing or coughing but any time she is sucking or crying it makes loud noise which makes me uncomfortable. I just bought silver bird oil but I want to know if I'm to add it to oil or how do I use it?

2. I'm 6 weeks post CS delivery and I still look like I'm 4 months pregnant please when can I use a postpartum belt or what do I use to bring it down.

Cc..all mamas
Thank you.

imurboss:
It's Ok to get your next vaccination at 7wks as they usually give after the age and not before, we also took our 6wks vaccination where we were already 7wks so No fear. As per the health centre in somolu,from oshodi you can join a bus going to yaba then alight at palmgroove. Use the pedestrian bridge and cross to the other side, then from there you can take bike or keke to the place/ask for directions though we used Oloja phc but the one in somolu will be easier for you since you're coming from oshodi.

cc queensnow

Please is oloja health center different from shomolu health center?

On which day of the week do they give the vaccine (rotavirus) so I can know when to take my children

Finally, will they request for anything or we just tell them we came for rotavirus vaccine.
Sorry to bother you with my endless questions.

As for the burping,it's quite tiring but you have to keep doing what you can do and sometimes they burp unknown to you,they may burp silently without you knowing while you will still be waiting for them to make a loud burping sound, for me if i put them on my shoulder for like 15-20mins without hearing the sound i will just put them down. The major thing is not putting them down immediately after feeding and they're fine.

About the restlessness,the weather is hot these days. Don't cover them too much,allow some breeze though you may need to cover them once you switch on your fan/ac, they will sleep better. It keeps getting better with time,kpele.The lord is your strenght.

I must be sincere with you,it's not easy at all.....sometimes i fall sick because i have no help but my mum is helping out a little now + dh, it's been God's grace. Recently i had a cracked voice due to shouting for their older ones,infact my voice just dey clear now. Few months back, the older ones will go and be pinching the twins,they pinch them and go into hiding laughing all the way,it was later i noticed some marks on their body and reported to their dad.The kain beating they got that day ehn reset their brain kia kia.....i cannot fit narate everything wey i don see on this journey o. May we all reap the fruits of our labours,amen.

Thank you so much ma, I'm really encouraged by your words. I'm sure your older kids were just catching fun o, weldone ma.
As for the covering we don't over dress them o, just one layer cloth cos the heat is serious here most time we do just body suit and socks on hot afternoons.

Regards to your children.

Oliran:
mama Abeg is bcg the same as TT?

No. TT is meant for you while pregnant now while bcg is for your baby when he or she is born.
