Awesome. Will try the apple puree today.
Thanks ma'am

U r welcome jazz

jazzyjazz:
Awesome. I'll try the apple puree.
Do I boil the apple first?
And should I add his formula to it? Same question goes fo4 the banana (I know I won't have to cook the banana)

I cut the apples, peel off the skin and the seeds inside.
i steam (boil) with very little water for 6 - 8 minutes, and then mash or blend.
you'll notice that the apple is softer after it has been steamed which allows for easy blending.

Don't sieve out the water o after cooking, U use the same water to blend. no need to add extra.


Banana is easy-peasy , just put in a blender and blend. no cooking.

I don't add formula to any of them. My dd loves it like that, maybe cos they are naturally sweet.

Me I no de kukuma pump again as nothing de comot
My own case is even bad
I had started him on Tom brown at 4 months and he liked it. He was taking it well. But all of a sudden the bobo decided he didn't want again, even formula! He's been sticking to breast only! If you see me now you will think I'm doing exclusive because na only breast him go collect.
I'm here thinking of another food to introduce whether he will take it. I tried small avocado and he was doing face as if I feed him poo poo . Mumsi put small semo in his mouth yesterday and he took it without making a face so I'm thinking of trying it

my dd makes that face whenever i introduce a new food....she carries the face for the first 3 spoons and after that, we are good.
So far, face or no face....she has never rejected any food.

I call it 'initial gra-gra' face

try apple puree or banana. It's sweet...He should like it.

Abiagirl777:
my son had blood too in his eyeballs .we weren't given anything and before two weeks it cleared.for the jaundice place him near the window where the morning sun would reach him everyday.

For jaundice asides from the early morning sun, u need to feed ur baby every 3hours so that he/she can poop and pee well. This helps the jaundice leave the system.

Jaundice may make ur baby a bit more sleepy, so u have t express when baby is sleeping, and then wake to feed

timigreene:
Hello women in the house. I noticed of late that Brest milk is not sustainable for my baby in the course of the night. She wakes up 10 Times or thereabouts to suck. What food can be given to her at night to sustain her over the night aside aside cereals and pap. Thanks

We've been on nutribom since we turned 6months. He loves it. Tried Gerber and he didn't like it, tried frisogold but cos it has milk he vomited it.

Thanks ma

SisiNini:

Aunt flow.(Period)

I havent seen my AF too and am 6 month PostPartum.

chai! u r balling o!

jazzyjazz:
Long post alert

Let me add my 2cents

I haven't gone for any interview in a while but I remember being asked some 'family-related' questions in the last interview i went for a few months after my wedding. I found some of them unnecessary, but a HR friend of mine later explained to me that they just want to be sure that you can be able to balance your home affairs (being a newly wed or a mum) without issues affecting your productivity.
They also asked me some questions about why i left my previous places of work which i think is normal (I have been asked that in every interview i have gone for)

My issue with your interview is just the fact that the discussion was with other applicants in the room. It should have been a 1-on-1 between the employers and You.

Cheer up dear, good news will come soon.

Akorkor:
Good morning house, Please what do you use for your baby girl if her front hair is not growing? I want ointment to grow my baby hair ohhh.

Errmmm, bikonu no vex. I dey holdup now and my mind is divided cos it's time to get my lo from crèche and there is holdup, rain kon dey fall ontop. Pardon me if I have left out any moniker.

I know I'm not the only mama here that thinks of those of us whom for one reason or the other do not participate as actively as they used to.

On behalf of Olofus, we wish you all well. We wish Una plenty joy and abundant peace. Whatever the case maybe, whether GOOD or bad, please know that it gets better.....
Amen.

Jazzyjazz ke? She de mark attendance often Na..

AlphaHandMaiden:
How many in the giga pack?

Pele hopefully it will be all good.

If you find it is a bit dodgy, perhaps the solution may be to change a bit more frequently than you usually would.

That is only if its just a matter of leaks and fit oh. Hopefully your baby developing a rash will not be included.

92 pieces in a pack

I try to change at least 3-4 hours, and so far we've never had any.

Thanks ma

MizMyColi:

Akorkor:
Hmmm, let me shook mouth too on this diaper matter, I have been team US pampers since LO was born but when i got to Nigeria, i said let me try out Nigeria Pampers and believe you me, I LOVE ITTTTTTT. Infact, it hold urine more than so call US pampers sef. I wish anywhere i go, i can see Nigeria Pampers to buy but unfortunately our exporting is not really good in Nigeria. I tried out another make of PAMPERS(be like say na ITALY dey make that one) but i was very dissapointed and i mentioned Pampers pant(like EGYPT product)here, OHHH so loving that one too but the wahala there is to remove, you have to tear it. So for now i havent tried moflix but i have it as a gift so i will try it out soon. I also have Huggies Gold that i will try soon.
So my ratings is NIGERIA PAMPERS PAMPERS PAMPERS ANYTIME ANYDAY. It works for me.

Cc. @wholesomegrace.

Mummy Zoe are you pro or anti-keto?

Hyphee:
Sabi mamas I hail o, abeg my EBF baby has not pooped for like 6 days now, pls should I be worried abi is it normal? Abeg make una no read and pass o

NO! do not be worried...
Watch what you eat and take a lot of water, you can also take fruits and vegetables so baby can get it thru Br.eastmilk...

Pls do not be tempted to 'shook' anything inside baby bumbum to help him/her poop.

Chanbaby:
Pls mamas, I read that babies shouldn't use pillow. At what month can lo start using pillow? Whats the side effect of using pillow made of fiber? Pls those that uses at what month did u start using?

Also I just saw it that babies cereal at 6months shouldn't be given with feeding bottles but plate. I beg make una put mouth
@Zan..yie, @omo..ge2, @enque @Ako...rkor , @fedd...y27, @ahn...ie and wonderful sabi mamas. God bless u all

...
I have this very soft pillow that came with my baby's mobile cot....we started using it at 3 months. it's so soft and light.

On the issue of cereal, I had to start using bowl and spoon when we started cos it's easier for me to wash . Although my mum was initially against it cos she feels that we should keep using feeding bottles, her reason being that my baby will start rejecting bottles. well, so far so good, my baby still takes water and milk in her bottles. She isn't rejecting them like my mum thought.

For me, starting the plate and spoon makes it easier to get used to in the long run (Also i can't seem to wrap my head around feeding solids in a bottle..naaah! )....she can still have her liquids in bottles, but I plan to switch to sip cups pretty soon.

hunniesuzie:
Oshe. I don dey turn sabi mama. The trick is to try and get the nose to flow. You can put a few drops of eucalyptus oil in hot water and sit with LO for the steam to enter her airways. Cover yourselves with a towel. You can also put a few drops on her bib (I couldn't do this cos my pikin dey chop bib now)
Best thing is saline drops. You can make your own (Google) or get from the pharmacy. A drop in each nostril loosens the catarrh


Then you suck it out!

There's not much you can do about the struggling. I did the saline drops thing when he was sucking. Sometimes I just soaked cotton bud with the solution and put in his nose (not far inside oh) the sucking you have to hold her head. My LO hated the steam bath so I only did it twice but it's very effective

If symptoms persist after a week you may need antibiotics

Osheeeey! SABInus mama!

I have silverbird n saline drops at home...
She chews her bib too..

The sucking....chaaiii! I think its time to go and visit My mum so she can help me out

hunniesuzie:
No Sis. I heard about it for the first time here. It was Agnesia I bought. Will look for it tomorrow. He's much better. Just the rashes now, nose is mostly dry and he barely coughed today

Thanks

Biko wat did u use for catarrh, ours just surfaced yesterday evening, and she won't let me touch her nose.... Struggles a lot

hunniesuzie:
Na wa oh. Cold, cough, malaria, rashes plenty plenty, only my baby. Wetin sef? To convince him to take the plenty drugs na war. Doctors sef, isn't there sweet malaria medicine? How is dissolving tablet in water a good idea?
Mamas wey sabi, can I use milk to dissolve and give him? Maybe he will prefer that one?

Not sure
How abt u keep d milk on standby n give immediately he swallows d dissolved drug.

Giddyperson:
I just called the hospital to ask about rotavirus vaccine and the person on the phone said it's N3500, she seemed to be speaking off the top of her head too. Biko for anyone that's paid for it recently, is that the price cuz I've been hearing rota is expensive.
