Good morning mothers.
1.My 2months old baby poop this morning and it was smelling. She's on exclusive breastfeeding. She also poop once a day and this is the first time it smells like this and it had some thick one inside it as if it was moulded and the rest was normal yellow. Is this normal? Because I have been worried o
2. Whenever breast milk touches her face, she reacts with things like pimples on her face. How do I prevent this from happening? I also use tribotan yet, it doesn't clear it and someone told me to use cacatin. Can I use cacatin for her?

I don't think there's anything wrong with smelly poop. My baby was EBF too and his poop always smells really bad tho he hardly poops.

For the rash, you should clean his face with a wet face towel whenever breastmilk touches it and you can use a little Agnesia powder on the rash or just ignore it. I don't think there's any need for medication.

A very good friend of mine got her 2nd child via failed condom, her 3rd via failed IUD

She has tied her tubes now. some people's body is stubborn

I smell the 4th coming through failed tube tie.

Can I buy a real toothbrush for Amali and his 4 teeth. Sometimes I forget when I did what for GB. I'm tired of getting bitten using facetowel and that finger brush thing is a waste of time.

Lmao, Lion no dey born goat sha

Habbeyoluwa:
Good evening moms, pls my 2month old as what its called "eela" on his face, its been making him so uncomfortable, just starter using red flower to bath him. Whatelse can I use, as its mostly on his face and its causing itching. Pls help a FTM

Just type eela in the search button, I did just now and I found a lot of stuff including the screenshot I've attached. You can run the search and sift through the answers, ignore the people giving agbo.

I’m breastfeeding oooo.
In fact, the nipples are on fire right now, I forgot to add.


Me I think say once you don push the baby out, all work is done. I didn’t know that’s the beginning. The pain rings in my brains whenever she sucks ...

When breastfeeding make sure the the whole dark part of the breast is inside the baby's mouth, not just the nipple, that's the proper way to do it and that way you won't feel anything.

I had terrible nipple pain with my first, learnt my lesson and I can't remember having much pain for baby number two.

Halcyon123:
Currently on pills but na the same plane with the implant (weight gain). Now am thinking of the non hormonal cos I can't deal with the weight

I'm also really considering taking out Jadelle and going for none hormonal, but first I want to wean Amali and change my diet, if I don't lose weight on a diet then id take it out. If I take it out, I'd miss this my fake menopause sha I hate periods.

Ammy5565:
Thank you. I appreciate.

Your mates would add 'free delivery on your next order'. I knew 5566 looked strange.

Graced2018:
Kindly share Ammy5566 contact, if you have it. Thank you

The way my DD outgrows her clothes/shoes is alarming, now seeking other options please

https://www.nairaland.com/4805305/kids-uk-aa-creme-grade

That's her nl thread, her contact details are there.

I gave myself same brain when GB turned 1, before that, someone was pouring money down the drain.

Keeki Kai weight gain mood swings me that can swing my mood anyhow the implant wee now worsen it

Thing is, thanks to rich white people we can get it free of charge, so I suggest you just do it. If your body reacts negatively to it, you can always take it out and use something else. If you spend too much time analysing, you'd be carrying bomboy before you are able to make up your mind. Trust me I know

keeki:
Please Mama's the used the implant family planning.what was your experience with it?any side effects? Please don't jump and pass.help a sister biko

I'm on it, I got it around I think March. Got a crazy 10 day long period the week after, that almost made me take it out but since it stopped and until today no period, not even spotting. Yayyy. That's the only thing I love about it.

The cons.
Mood swings
Major weight gain. It actually makes me eat a lot and I don't resist but if you can resist the food, you'll be good, I think.
Also if you have issues with pimples and stuff on your face, it might not be ideal for you.

Anugod:
Jeez! Giddyperson
I'm just cracking up replaying everything in my head. GB is just something else. Bullying her brother for laffs, drinking bath water and eating your weave?! I'm sure she took after you.

Pele, enjoy

Nobody to help watch over them? What of your small cousin?

Lol my cousin goes to school, GB would join her by next week sha so I can face one.

So this morning, I bathed GiddyBaby first, then I bathed Amalinze, then I tried to put them in front of the TV to watch nursery rhymes so that I can get stuff done.

They both love nursery rhymes but whenever GB notices that two of them are alone, she starts yelling at Amali, and the yelling scares him so he cries and she laughs. This is what she does every single time they're left alone, I can't even go into how much it annoys me.

Anyway so she's yelling, and his wailing, and I'm just trying to shut out both their voices for a minute so that I can finish what I'm doing. But GB is relentless, so I finally had to go and pick up Amali and now I'm pissed at GB.

Their father has always said I should stop pinching her and start putting her on time outs instead. Rolls eyes.

Anyway so I take Amali into our bedroom, and lock GB out as I try to console him cuz believe it or not, if I leave the door open, GB would follow me and keep yelling at Amali and laughing so that he'd never stop crying.

Whenever I lock GB out of the bedroom, she usually stays by the door banging and crying. Whenever she doesn't do this, I know that she's up to mischief. She was quiet today but the living room is more child proof than its ever been and the kitchen door is locked so I figure she can't be up to much and ignore her while I breast fed Amali.

5 minutes later I start hearing faint coughing sounds and it also sounded as if she was swallowing. I quickly opened the door and she was no where to be found, I checked the second room and there she was, squatting over the water I used to bath Amali, using her hands as cup to scoop it and gulp it down. . Reminded me of an ancient African widow practice but it didn't scare me because it couldn't be worse than when she ate my weave.

This is the reason they tell you to put your children in creche at one.

gracygem100:
Good evening Mama's pls I'll like to know:
is it really necessary for a 1yr old child to start creche b4 KG1?
Wat do they actually do in creche apart from d feeding and general childcare activities?
Pple keep telling me to take my child who just clocked 1 and yet to walk to creche.
Really want to know if it improves d child more in other aspects.

It's not necessary biko. If you can stay at home with him until he's at least two, then he's lucky.

Good evening mamas, am a first time mum and am new here.
I gave birth 10 days ago and I had teers, it was stitched and latter it loosened, I went back to re-stitch it. It's been ten days now and the blood coming out from my private part has not stopped, please ma's is it normal? And how many days will it take for the blood to stop?
My second concerned is my Tommy, it's not going down that much, what can I use?

It's been just 10 days, I'm sure it's no longer heavy, but you have to give it time, it would stop soon. It would probably not last the entire 6 weeks but anything within 6 weeks is not out of the ordinary.

Also sorry about the restitching. Please avoid working too hard until they heal, also eat lots of fruits and vegetables so that you won't strain when pooing, as that can loosen the stitches too.

Mummyejire:
Thank you
Still waiting for more options as my route is towards oshodi

Ammy5566 sells really nice ones and I think you can pick up along that route.

Taymi:
Hello mums, who is online Abeg. Preparing to go to the school where I would like to enrol my 2yrs old son, please what are the question should ask and what should I watch out for.
Thank you in advance

Oopsie, hope it's not too late.
A mama here once made an exhaustive list of things to look out for, if I find the post later i'd tag you.

For me, I just let my 6th sense do all the work. I make sure the head teacher/administrator and whoever else is in charge is educated, responsible and strict. (They to have a real education, not just I went to school type of education) . I don't ask for their certificates, I can guess it just by talking to them. They should know stuff about education, educating kids, running a school.

I'd ask questions like 'Do they get to learn anything in preschool' 'oh wow, they start learning early, why can't it wait until nursery school'. The answer should better not be be 'because that's how schools in US or Lekki are doing it'. That would be a cue to run away

I also make sure I'm comfortable with the teachers that would be handling my kids class. I don't want local champion in nice clothing. I would expect that the school must have trained them to really understand how to work with children. I can also gauge this just by talking to them. I look at how they interact with the kids, if there are cameras and how much supervision they get. I don't want secret floggers. Some class teachers while giving you a tour would explain that their classes have AC but they hardly use it except when the weather is really hot. The local champions would brag about 24/7 AC. That's just an example but I use stuff like that to narrow down my options.

Lastly I also take the security very seriously. I like when the school gate is at least a little further away from the school compound. I prefer uniformed people from security companies at the gate and he must not be looking like a crook or a perv. And I prefer him or them sticking to his little house by the gate and not coming among the children a lot for whatever reason.

And then they should not be above budget
Those are some of the things I look out for sha.

Omashola, Frodd and Seyi are hosting. Now biggie is playing 'Able God', Seyi said this is the right song to play to celebrate their survival to day 99.

Omashola said he doesn't need snoring, he needs sex. I don't think Omashola has ever gone this long in his life without sex. I pity the first girl he calls after the house

Now Omashola and Frodd are play-fighting. Omoshola is angry that Frodd is always snoring. Frodd says all other guys in the house snore except Omashola

Big brother is playing music. So many of them are sleeping. Mercy is on her bed twerking, Ike is in the toilet pooing Seyi is outside looking bored.

unex50:
Sabi mum.. Plz wahala Don gas oo.. My friend just found out she is a month pregnant... And her baby is just 6months old... Plz can anyone suggest a safe method.. She doesn't want to keep it.. Thanks

Please the six old month still needs her, so whatever she's doing she has to be very careful not to put her health at risk. No need sneaking around like a teenager, before she would go and drink what would harm her.
she should go to the hospital and inquire about an abortion, at this early stage, there should be a pill.

Bibbzz:
Happy Sunday beautiful mamas!
Please I’d like to know when is recommended or when you started making your little girls hair
Mine is 3 months old with plenty hair and I’m wondering if I should start putting it into little puffs
And it’s really hard to comb sometimes

You can, just don't make it tight

Eeghe:
He is aware of this but he does heart a lot
He has complained to Biggie about people who trample on his emotions (2/3), I believe he will put up those
If Seyi asked him not to swap him, he would not do so
We watch shaa

When does it happen biko, I don't want to miss it

Frodd is always aware of his competition. I think he would most likely put up all the men for possible eviction. Mike, Omoshola, Seyi, Ike and Elo would be up.

jazzyjazz:
Swallow is the only food my son eats very very very well! He eats adult size swallow and I'm not even exaggerating! Any other food na manage he de manage am

olabrinks:
I looked in the mirror today and I cried.
I’m just feeling so down at the moment I don’t know if it’s hormones but I’m just feeling so out of it, like I just can’t recognise the human being in front of me. I know I should be grateful for this blessing but I feel I’m losing myself in the process. My face has become so much darker than the rest of my body, I’m adding weight at an extreme pace, I don’t want to go out anymore I don’t feel good in anything I wear. My lips are constantly peeling then I have all these dark spots on my face from the acne I had from the first trimester. I don’t have the energy to be myself, to do normal things, I’m just moody most of the time. I’m just thinking out loud though , and I hope I can feel better about myself as I continue this pregnancy. I’m not ungrateful.

Sorry, it's the hormones, try not to dwell too much on the physical changes, you'll get your body back (at least most of it . ) after the baby comes.

Some pregnancies make you finer and some make you ugly. If this one is making you ugly and you don't like it, then make sure your hair is always on fleek, get chapsticks for your lips and use them 24/7, and get spot removing things for your face. Also shop for cute maternity wear .

With my son I was ugly as sin and me and my stomach was massive but it didn't bother me at all. Maybe because with my daughter, I had been so fine. So it's just phases. It will pass.

Amarisa:
