Hello great mothers.. my 14 month old has had this cough for 2 months now and it disturbs at night. He wakes up from sleep coughing and vomits thereafter. I've used several antibiotics which reduces it but it increases again some days after I stop d antibiotics. I boil he's drinking water and he takes jus cerelac, iindome, some swallow, Caprisonne but not always so I don't think it has to do with what he's eating. I've given him so many bottles of cough syrups which never works until d doc said I shud stop it. What native or herbal can I use 4 him as am tired of antibiotics it's becoming too much for he's tender body. Pls I need help on any known native or herbal combinations that work and is not harmful to him. I've also been treating a very stubborn malaria every month now that even quinine cannot stop. God help mothers. It is well. Pls I need ur response. Thanks in advance.

Did u complete d dosages?if u ar 2 give 4 7days don't give less than dt.I also use honey,get original honey give a teaspoon wt a pinch of salt,he is ova a year so its safe for him,u cn give it money nd night.good luck

The IUD(coil) is what I'm on now. I used it before this current LO and I had it for 4 years....but you have to be able to bear the monthly pain and heavy bleeding. I dread my AF every month.

My gynecologist tried to convince me to go on the pill, saying it has 100% success rate.... but I said No. I would rather deal with the pain than get fat.

Any mother know of a BC pill that doesn't make you gain weight?

Am on jadell implant which lasts five years nd its been 10mnths I had it fixed,at first I thought it ws making me gain weight bt I eventuall knew d cause of my weight gain nd am bac 2 ma size,no pain at all bt d 1st 3 mnths ws hellish cos I bled lik anoda tin,now I dnt even see my MP every mnth sef.

@harmless1,maybe u shld give ur lo a single grain,wheat also purges my kid so i advise u giv rice alone pap is okay too

joyousf:


my sister ekiti wa o. thanks. I'd definitely be storing. its good u told me this. @soya: don't think so jare. heard some can av allergy or so. for now I just gave him pap made from millet. though someone was telling me I should mix with smt else. forgot the name she called it. said its white. but smaller than millet.

I hope to also give cerelac n friso rice. or must I stick to just one? the remaining will b natural foods.

how are d children now? e Ku itoju o.

Children ar fine,I also give friso rice nd cerelac,prefers cerelac though.jero is wt d person asked u 2 add,oka baba either brown or white is guinea corn nd jero is millet.u cn do only jero cos d nutrient is higher or combine d 2,here is dominatd by hausas nd they prefer jero for children so I gave jero nd even introducd it 2 my sis in ekiti,u cn get it at sabo in oja oba,its tiny like pebbles nd d colour is ash.tk kia ma

joyousf:
mamas that add crayfish to their baby's pap how do u prepare the crayfish n store it. I think i once read here that one should stir fry it a little to ensure its dry n then blend. is this OK?
after grinding will it be OK to just leave it at room temp or it has to b in d freezer?
at what stage of cooking the pap does one add the crayfish.
I'm also guessing d pap should not be too thick

in short my baby s stopping exclusive n I want to start introducing pap . cereal n formula sabi mamas I need advice o.

My sis ao far nw nd ao is baby?ekiti kete nko?make year pap normally on fire,bring down nd add d crayfish,mix well nd add milk.if u ar storing d pap in a flask dnt add d crayfish b4 storing o cos it wil spoil after a few hours.u no wan use soya abi?

TopeMel:


Mamas, kindly help with this. I noticed that he sometimes opens one eye wider than the other. Is this normal?

I think u shld tak him 2 a pead for check up.do u knw if blood enterd while cleaning him on d day of delivery?pls see a doc asap

eazee:
Good day mamas in the house,
I moved over from the pregnancy thread, and has found this thread helpful. A FTM here. My baby is just 6 weeks old and has been having rashes all over her body inccluding her head...I use Ori (shear butter) for her body and johnson baby oil for her hair.
Don't no the cause of all these rashes oo. Pls I need your assistance as this whole thing is about to drive me crazy.
Secondly, my elder sister's new born 4 weeks has been stooling (over 6 times a day)..greenish stool. Pls I need your urgent response on these issues.
God bless u all.

Stop d johnson asap nd note dt ori does nt work 4 all children(gud on one of my kids bt bad on d other)u cn try sebamed as ther ar lots of testimones abt it,its expensive though bt works.abt ur sis I think its abt hind milk nd fore milk,d breast milk. Comprises of fore milk nd hind milk.if d baby does nt suck well on a breast he only sucks d lighter part,let d baby empty one breast b4 givin him another.

Harmless1:
Mothers help ooo! My 8months old son poos about 4 to 5 times a day. It started since he was 4 months and i hv given him different types of drug. Pls help me out on what to do

sayoberry:


He's 5 months old! How do I start? Won't he just roll his eyes and look away like "what's this woman talking about"?

First u start by getting experience. But to do dat ur cv gotta carry some sort of experience or maybe not..but I bliv u must have taught during ur nysc year, if u haven't ,no prob. Meet a teacher any teacher you know to brief u how its done .if u don't know any, then get ur cv together n walk into any small school(maybe even pako sch) within ur area n apply. They would gladly take you and if there is no space, find a school really close to ur house that transport won't affect you and ask d principal that u wanna understudy teaching in their school for a few weeks regarding a project/research u intend to go into as u wanna dwelve into the teaching profession. They may likely allow especially if they don't have to pay you.. You can try that to gain lil experience and then move on from there..
This is just a guide or an idea on what u may try. Other peeps may add other approaches that may help out..
@peeps in da house ,over to una.
