@spiceeaimee jaundice isn't caused by malaria during pregnancy. I never had malaria all thru pregnancy, and I completed my compulsory malaria dose during pregnancy but Zara still had jaundice.
The hospital I use starts testing for jaundice from 48hours after birth, the blood work is done for 3 days and the results determine how soon or not u will be discharged post-delivery. We spent 8 days in hospital before we were discharged. A lady in my ward whose baby had severe jaundice (the levels got to 19, and the baby had 2 blood transfusions + plenty phototherapy) spent close to 2weeks in hospital. |

zaynie: Please mamas. Who has experience with a baby with jaundice. Our newborn has it, to think I saw it 2 days ago but since both parents don't have clear white eyes, I felt it was inherited not till yesterday when the corners of the cornea was way darker than the rest. His gums also turned yellow this morning. We took him to the hospital early this morning and have done test (he measured 17) and now he is on admission. I feel so terrible that I waited this long.
How long do babies with jaundice have to stay in the hospital? Is jaundice a result of infection? cos that's what the doctor told them (she didn't allow me in). I don't believe so cos this baby is just 5 days old and only a handful of people have carried him. Pikin wey just dey sleep dey go.
Babies and their wahala 
Cc: All mamas Jaundice isn't caused by an infection, it's just one of those things with babies.. U can google. I had an experience with Zara but luckily the level didn't get to 10 else they wouldn't have discharged us, it kept hovering around 9 till it disappeared totally. Since the level is at 17, the baby should be admitted and undergoing phototherapy by now.. If the level still doesn't go down, they may have to do a blood transfusion for the baby. The major thing the mum needs now is to keep breastfeeding the baby so he/she can poop & pee it all out. They'll most likely discharge them if the level steps down to any value below 10, then she can go home with baby and do early morning sun to kill it off finally. Pele... Baby will be fine soon |

As nursing mothers,has any1 ever forgotten food on fire till it got burnt?
Have you ever forgotten to regfrigerate or put that food in the freezer till it got spoilt?
Have you ever forgotten to cook that "little" food(say white okro or ewedu) till it dried away?
Have you ever forgotten to make that call or reply an sms? I have burnt food countless times... One time I dozed off n forgot. When it became frequent, I realised I needed to take a chill pill and breathe. Motherhood+wifehood isn't beans but it's just God's grace that sees us thru it all. Take a big hug.... We love U. U r a good mum+wife |

spiceeamiee: I see someone has given you tips on how to use it but you can't wear it under clothing. It's too bulky. Better to get something thinner that you can wear under clothes as they are more comfortable. Can u recommend if u know any less bulkier one... been searching for. |

goodfortun: .
Also, I bought this 3-in-1 post partum belt from jumia but I've never used it. Infact; I don't know how it works! There was no manual that came with it.
I'm 2 months post partum via CS which is why i wasnt in a hurry. and want to start now. Has any mama here used it and where does each one go? I've labelled each A.B.C and would really appreciate some insight. Thanks! see pix below

Giddyperson: Sure but even on that day, they first informed the creche people and they got ready for my coming in while I waited at the reception until they said 'you can come in now' unlike the other creches where we just walked into the place and had a look. I've noticed that only staff and students go through that door, all parents, even those of the older kids, wait at the reception. If you ask them now they'd say its germs now i understand y u r always lamenting about missing giddybaby |

hunniesuzie: Ah, na real wa. Mine isn't that formal. There's a reception area but once you come you can enter into the general play area or any of the rooms to see what's going on (after you take off your shoes sha). Well so far she's fine there's no problem. Did you enter the creche area when you checked it out? same way ours is... they gave us a full tour of the creche, kitchen , toilets etc when we came to make enquiries |

Giddyperson: That's the thing, I can't do impromptu visits cuz they would not even let you enter the creche area like that, you'd first sit at the reception then they call the creche people, then they bring out your baby [s]before I'd transfer my kwasiorkor to the other kids I guess[/s] or more like time to clean up anything fishy. Anyway, can't even run, hubby is taking this creche thing hard enough, if I decide to change next month I would kuku kill him. @Hunniesuzzie O ga oo well, I guess it's just their modus operandi, but I sure as hell won't be comfortable wt that |

Giddyperson: Me too but the creche sef, protocol to see the baby is another thing, they would be wasting the little time I have, plus my visit always seems like such an inconvenience to them, they would be acting like inspector is visiting, makes me try to limit my visit to once a day. And how can I say let me change creche when baby would already be used to their faces by month end. huh?? my creche has no restrictions o...u can come 25 times a day sef. not meaning to put ideas in ur head, but impromptu visits are good...so u can catch dem doing ' ihe aruru ala', that's if at all they do. |
