Good morning sabi mamas, PLZ HELP A FTM.
my Dd has hiccups like up to 6 times a day and it usually lasts long. Please is this normal if not what can i do about it.

it's normal, anytime she is having it, just give breast. With time it will reduce. It's so frequent in newborn babies.

Toopee:
My baby likes being sang to and I don’t know any song to sing. I went to App Store to download an app for the purpose but it’s not loading. Please mamas, give me suggestions, lullabies, nursery rhymes and all. Maybe app and book recommendations.

Go to play store and type offline kids rhymes. You will see different apps to download. Use a very good network like etisalat or Airtel, it will load.

Hello mothers.

Please I need help.

My kids are too active, too hyper active. Never seen such busy kids!

One is 5 and the other is going to be 3, it's being crazy.

We always cause a scene whenever we go out. From running away and me running after them to so many other things. Car almost ran into one of them some weeks ago. I felt weak, someone even insulted me and looked at me disgustingly cos of it, like i wasn't watchful or stupid not to put them to caution.

Once i pack they are ready to jump out of the car and begin to run. People say i dont allow rhem to go out, where dem wan go? Afterall they go to school.

My hubby is pisssd and am stressed over this attitude of theirs. I can't sit beside them, my 3 years old will turn my body to her play ground. I lock myself in my room 70% of the time. They hadly take a nap.

How do engage them properly? For now it's tv or playing with toils (which they dont fancy that much), i buy different toils and they get tired easily with them.

Am thinking of stopping oat for them, they take oat almost monday to friday before leaving for school. Could oat be the cause?

I don't want to start beating them so they wont get used to it and become stubborn.

Am seriously thinking of resigning my job, get a shop where they come to every day after school. Let them begin to go out now since them say I no dey allow them go out. Whenever we go out they become weird.

hmmm, it is well. I know of one family like this, the 2 boys are so restless. And u know what? They go out a lot. So, I won't attach it to been indoor. These 2 boys will go to a party and scatter things. Almost everyone will be correcting them, I used to be ashamed myself whenever I go out with their mother. My son will play with them before you know it he will become tired.

But I want to believe it's age, but keep correcting with love, give punishment instead of beating cos beating makes them stubborn more. I mean too much of beating, above all pray for them. I was even complaining about my son, now I know he still a learner. He plays too much too but once you're outside, he behaves. He doesn't go out too after school hours. But in-house wahala no be here.

Sometimes, these kids behave as if they are not trained at all and it's very annoying seeing them like that even when parents are trying their best.

God will give us the wisdom to train them and they will yield to correction. They will not be a sorrowful children to us In Jesus Name.

My boy will be 1 year in June and no teeth.
Pls had anyone experienced this? Is this normal? Should I still be cleaning his tongue daily?

lol, have you seen any toothless being? Just thank your God that he hasn't gotten the teeth self, you self for don hear am from bite bite.

My son got his first set of teeth at 11 months. Got his complete 20 teeth before age 3. So don't fret.

Goldenheart002:
Just say u are joking!!
U've been listening to ppl's talk and doing Google, abi?

That's how one elderly woman told my hubby last week in church dat our 1yrs 3mon old should be "making long sentences and reading bible" by now. Hubby tried to explain to her dat DS calls "Mami, baby, joy, take, gba, water", our neighbors names and even his own name, he even claps and dances to music. But no, mama insists he's supposed to do better at his age dat hubby should endeavor to see a certain doctor. I nearly hit d man wen he told me at home, he should have told me in church and let d woman see how "bad" I can be wen need be! Well, I'm sparing time for her in church tmrw.

Sis, pls don't worry unnecessarily, baby is still small to understand his name at 6month. Calm down and bother about something else

Can you imagine!!!! Reading long sentence. These people will not kill us.

Funmi2510:
Plz mama... My baby is 6month old and he hasn't started responding to his name.....what can I do because am worried

Lol, mamas here won't kill somebody with laughter. Oh my God. 6 months or 6 years!!!

No mind me o abeg.

he is still a baby fa. As long as he looks straight into your eyes and respond to play, you have no fear dear. I believe the mighty child minders outhere are not the ones putting fear into you, telling you your baby should have been responding to his name.

Our politicians tend to be very friendly when election is around the corner.

Funny enough, many will still fall for their cheap scam. When they start distributing 1kg of rice with one sachet tomato paste and 50 naira power oil.

Preciouschinwe:
First of all I want to say a big thank you, to every one here.secondly, My husband love's his kids,he only wants the best for them(only that the boarding school suggestion was a big mistake).And lastly I had a talk with him last night about the issue, which he saw reasons with me and he finally agreed that none of his kids will attend a boarding school.so am saying a big thank you to every one again because : I almost gave up

I am happy for you o madam. Congrats

ceasarpoetic:
if it has not happened to u, u won't understand,had a similar experience of rentin a house for a girlfriend (3yrs relationship) only to find out she was bringing a guy to sleep in the house. confronted her & she claimed the guy was a relative untill I caught Dem unaware cuz my informant was the compound. it was painful, bed I bought someone was lashing my girl. I burnt the bed & some of the belongings and broke up with her. at least not worst like this guy.

No matter what happened, setting a family house ablaze is very devilish. For what precisely? Is she the only woman on Earth or their destiny is tied to each other ni?

If you burn your girlfriend's matress and belongings, shebi na u buy am, why u no burn the girl join? So no matter what the lady has done to him, it doesn't warrant this.

Ok now that he has caused this hazard, the lady can now marry him.

We shouldn't blame the man!
Let's hear his side of the story these women can be very useless at times.

Are u for real?

It is like semolina, made from maize. It originates from South Africa, that is the name the locals call it.

That should be tuwo in Nigeria. Made from maize and prepare like semo.

Preciouschinwe:
am so greatful that you are being blunt dear. besides I was only trying to hear people's opinion. before I go come stand my ground gidigbam.

please, stand your ground.

Guest007:
That might do detrimental damage on your child emotionally. No, 5 is too young. A child under 16 is still developing and should not be independent. You are exposing your son to sexual violence as well. You might as well send the child to prison. I'm really sorry for being so blunt but this triggered my emotions sis.

You have said it all. The truth is bitter.

jullidee2006:
hmnnn..all he did was give an instruction with a clause: "if God wills"...have you checked the lady's faith or have you confirmed the will of God?... he didn't do anything wrong... let's stop castigating people for the sake of likes...

Thanks for the statement above. To read and understand is now a hard labour. But to castigate is very easy.

AntiBrutus:
Sadly, your brother will marry and bring your mother to his house, despite knowing how troublesome she is.

When the innocent woman reacts, people will say she is a bad wife. Chai!

my fear too.

Aremolekunowo:
I have a two year old SS, that have really consumed cash not that alone.you will never be happy seeing your child passing through excruciating pains each time of crises.
Am currently separated from my wife because the love cleared away like a morning cloud. A word is enough for the wise.

It's well bro.

Hello the intellects in the house, I'm in a relationship with a girl and we've gone a very long way, but recently, we got to realize that we are both AS, Can we Still get married? and what is the implication of AS and AS getting married, your contributions will be highly appreciated. Thank you, and if the MOD can move this to front page, will appreciate it too.

Pls, let go. The love will vanish when the crisis begins.

That is why it is paining me o... I have a very full hair,her dad wears a mini afro so I expected my lo's hair to be very full.

The hair will still be full as she's growing. Just maintain the little she has for now.

Trendytessy:
I hope this will do.. The 1st is her hand (those ones started coming out yesterday)
The 2nd pic is her leg.. you should see some dark marks there

It will go, penicillin ointment will take care of it. Apply it on the hand at night.

Trendytessy:
Hello mamas.. I don't know what else to do to clear my baby's skin. She keeps having recurrent skin problems (a blister kind of stuff keeps popping mainly around her legs), I've applied different creams it'll go and resurface again. She's taken antibiotics too.
I use sebamed soap for her and Shea butter (I stopped using boots cos I felt cream could be a culprit).

Pls I need advice on what to do cos it keeps leaving marks on her legs and it itches her too.

Giddy..person, zayn...ie, comt..em2011, all mamas pls help

can you share the pic?

unex50:

Hello mamas..longest..

pls i need your help..my 4months baby's hair is so strong.

I only apply baby oil after bath and comb..plus can i make her her now? Like puff puff..

plus i think she has a dry skin at her back..her back looks dry and has kinda dry patches..

i use shea butter as her cream cuz of her skin ish off and on..
but i have johnson baby lotion which i vnt started using on her..

Should i start using the johnson nd free shea butter?..
Pls help me..

2) she makes a funny sound like whistle it started just a week ago..i really dnt like that sound..should i be worried..?

a. Yes, u can start the puff puff style now but not too strong though.

b. It's common to babies and it's always off and on. Sheatbutter and Agnesia powder is what I use whenever we have it. My son overcame it around 2+, I am dealing with same with my daughter. Though presently free from it.

c. What sound? Your baby is growing and you should be happy that she is making sound now. Or u want make she dey call Mummy ni? Leave her abeg.

Jaygrl:
Ok...thanks. The fine hair should come quick o...lol.

Give her time please, my baby girl have scanty hair too, which I didn't really like cos myself has a very full and thick hair.

But, there is nothing I can do about that. I started picking the hair when she was 5 months old. But the truth is, she go still get hair laslas na ni. For now, I use sheatbutter and coconut oil for the hair.

I can't kill myself, nature will continue to be nature.

JGracious:
If the hospital has conducted a test to make the conclusion then follow the medication prescribed to you.

The major thing I observed during teething is slight rise in temperature which could sometimes be accompanied with swollen gums and can cause baby discomfort. Paracetamol takes care of this and baby is fine.

No need of any kind of teething drugs, soap, bracelet and all sorts.

A lot times, mothers associate teething with stooling and this is likely to happen as a result of baby putting fingers in the mouth or picking dirts from the floor.You can curb this with teething rings and ensuring hygiene around your home and where you keep baby is top notch.

100 gbosa for you for the last paragraph. Many are ignorant of this.

You are a fool. As matured as you are, you will register to a website to talk rubbish. Your mates are finding ways to improve their lives and the world, you are here wasting your precious short time!

Don't insult him, he is only pitying them and at same time saying he can't cope with blindness. You guys should try and understand what some comments mean before quoting and insulting.
