My mum insist I give my baby abidec multivitamin, and vitamin c 'to keep her healthy and immune against illness', when hospital hasn't asked me to (when I delivered). She has now gone ahead to buy it herself.

Please is this safe? She's just 10 days old

Not necessarily especially if you are doing ebf. Besides vit c on top Abidec to me is overdose.

HolySteph:
Pls mamas, what is the norm behind covering babies head and keeping them in a hot environment? These grand mothers won't stop. The weather is frigging hot, my baby sweats a lot and starts crying until I turn on fan before he sleeps well. He pulls the head warmer every time we put it on him. Mamas pls help. I need to know why that is necessary.

Please

my baby is 4 weeks and i don't wear him head warmer. The weather is so so hot. They are humans and they also feel this weather .Infact he wears singlet and shot these days to bed with fan on. He sweats a lot. Pls don't over cover.
But alwz look out and also make sure dat he is not feeling cold to avoid stories dat touch.

curvilicious:

Mzflexydeeva:
Good day mothers in the house. I didn't know this thread existed. New mum, 1st time mum. Just four weeks ago my son came into the world bringing with him so much joy.

need advice. My baby is 4 weeks old and just a few days (3) ago i started noticing a rise in temperature. I took his temperature (armpit) 36.8. Mouth, 37.1 and the next day from the anus, 37.3. No vomiting, regular stooling and everything seems normal but the temperature. Should i be getting worked up?

His temperature is very ok. Anything below 37.5 is ok, above not ok.

@ Towerofgrace, your expectations cannot be cut short. The lord God will favor you and all those believing on God for this special gift.
You have indeed tarried long enough and God is going to wipe those secret tears.
I am waiting for your bfp announcement. No more delay.

You are blessed.

Well this is so simple if your dh understands. For example, i also lived in a 2 bedroom flat sometime ago. I use one wit my husband and d other for my kids but then, no kids yet, so i turned it to visitors room.
it happens dat a time came wen my younger sister came for dia office training and she was using the room and my brother who stays outside the country also came visiting.
He kept his bags in the room but sleeps at the sitting room. I have extra mattress, so in the night, i bring it out and take it back in the morning.
I can't see my self not sleeping with my husband for a yr under the same roof.
Pls sit him down and talk to him, maybe he will reason wit you.
I also can't share my matrimonial bed with my sister because, there is still an ultanative.
Wish you well.

zaynie : sassyangel1 , lady25 AND soonest

IT ABOUT THIS PCV THING, HAVE STARTED TAKING THE GARDEN EGG LEAVE EXTRACT BUT WHAT I WHAT TO FIND OUT IS



When i was 18wks, my pcv was 25'%, The doctor changed my prenatal to (sorry has forgotten the name), i took it twice daily. I was told to change my diet.
This is what i did. I make sure as often as possible dat i encopulate Ugu in all my meal, weda beans, rice, yam etc. i cut and cook it separately wit onions not overcooking it, just steaming, i chew together with my food. Increase my fruits in take mostly, cucumber, watermelon, carrots, garden eggs etc. I also increase my water intake. I also make sure dat i eat boiled egg thrice every week.
After 2weeks, i redo d test, and it was 30%.
I have not gotten dia yet, but i know dat, it will go up more wit time.
Your own will go up with time by God's grace.

Thanks @zaynie

adaiahakwaibom, may d almighty God console you. It is well dear. Take heart.

Weldone mamas. @ zaynie, if am qualified and the sloth is still on, am interested in the jolly phonics. My ds will be 4yrs by May 2018.

eksbabe:
Hello mummies, i have heard that women feel some type of contractions for about 2 days after giving birth "like the womb returning to its position". I didnt feel this contraction, my mum even asked if i wasnt feeling any pain and i told her no. I have told some friends too and they think its not normal for me not to feel any contractions and i have to get checked.
What do you mamas think?

I didn't feel it in my 1st and 2nd but in the 3rd. l normally feel it during breastfeeding.

@proudmom38,cheer up. Everything will definitely work together for ur good. It is well.

I had the procedure in 2015 ,March precisely. I think d price depends on each hospital and it is negotiable.When i went in the morning on dat day, d doctor i met told me that i have to do d d&c immediately and billed me 15k, i told him that i will come in the evening, let me inform my hubby. I went in the evening and met a gynea dat i know and he charged me 10k,and i really thank God that i met him because he counselled me on what to do and expect to get a good result.
I was awake through out the procedure.

I was just scared when i saw all the gadgets they brought out. After sterilizing them, they clean me up and some instrument was inserted inside of me. i don't know what actually d doc was doing down below but he was Just talking and finally, he showed me some lumps of blood and told me thats my baby and d placenta. They cleaned me up, i rested for like 10mins and told my hubby to take me home. I was active d next day although i was emotionally down.

Note:Pls use a good gynea and good hospital.
My doc told me to relax and not fidget so dat i won't hurt myself and also be able to expel all the stuff without retaining any tissue.

Try to take all the antibiotics and other drugs dat will be given u religiously.

My doc assured me dat if everything went well dat i will see my af in my next cycle and as he said it, so did it happen to me.

He told me dat i can begin to try again after my first af.

When i was emotionally ready to try, i did and God did it for me, d journey was smooth and d baby in Question is 18 months and am heavy with another one again lol.

I can't believe i typed all these.
It is well.

Droyal:




Thanks mamas it went smoothly.

OK thank God.

proudmom38:
Mamas abeg make una help me o

My son is cutting his molar and his gum too is bleeding, he can't chew foods and the thing don make am lean finish. Please what can I use to treat the bleeding gum cos its making him to have bad breath.


Ps. I brush his teeth twice a day, so is not hygiene issue!

Cc. zaynie, ahnie, Alphahandmaiden, sassyangel, giddyperson and all sabi mamas.

The same thing happened to my dd some weeks back .4 molar decided to come out d same time. Her gums where bleeding and she was alwz salivating with very foul bad odor oozing out of her mouth. She cant eat anything.
What i did, i use her wash cloth wet to clean her mouth with much fighting cos she was really in pain. I gave her emzor multivitamin and emzor vit b complex both syrup. I also administered paracetamol syrup when i noticed dat she is in pain.
It lasted for up to a week, but she is fine now.

[quote author=HolySteph post=59959147]Good morning house. Pls dont mind my long epistle. I just want to share the experience I just had this morning.





Some mamas usually said that feeling dizzy and fainting are some of the package but as for me wen i felt dat way, It happened dat my pcv is very low and my bp a bit elevated. You can check with your doc to rule out any of these, at least your mind will be at rest.

@ Janix2 , concerning your question on good natural body cream, have you tried Oriflame product.There products are purely organic and natural. They have different body cream depending on your body type.

You can check them out.

The kind of birth announcement dat will fall on this thread is going to check nl. With this kind of positive mindset, your prayers will receive speedy replies.

Baby dusts to all the mamas here
Waiting for the birth alerts.

belladsweet:
Thanks the truth is i have started using it already didnt really know why the doctor prescribed it to me he only told me that it aids hyper ovulation.I started taking it on day 2 of my period he said i should stop in day 7... I pray it turns out fine in Jesus name.

Am sorry to say that when you asked this question on the preggy thread, a lot of mum dia answered u. Most adviced you not to take d medicine if you don't have any issue. Some even told you that d side effects is bad especially if nothing bad is diagnosed. You still went ahead and follow your doctors instructions which is OK by you. What answer do you want d mums here again to give, dey are not doctors but are here sharing dia diff experiences.

I pray that God answers your prayers and that d medicine works for you.
Sorry if i sound somehow.

ladytaurus:



yes poo. I can imagine seeing dis moniker in clinic and don't recognise u. team September all d way.

Lol

Droyal:



Pls I have one more question( you answered about Alimosho GH some pages back)

The first Tuesday (for ANC reg) one goes MUST my hubby go with me? or I can go alone and then he comes later( another time )or they won't attend to me if hubby doesn't come along for the blood stuff that same day, want to be sure so hubby can plan ahead since its a working day

Thanks .

If you come with your hubby dat day, he will donate dat same day and you will be booked dat same day. But if you did not come with your hubby, you will just do your test and scan and come back next Tuesday with your hubby for donation and booking,after paying 17k. In my own case, i didn't come with my hubby same day ,he came d upper Tuesday and dats wen i was booked.

temmy2103:


I knew during my first journey, she's really sweet. Was on Monday team and there was a Friday team so I wanted to know if she's on Mondays or Fridays

Yes, she is alwz around on both days. She is d chief matron for antenatal and posnatal.

temmy2103:
Abeg which ANC day is she, so I can know which day to seek when I register

She is alwz on sit on each antenatal day. We call her alhaja. She is a true mother indeed wen you get closer in knowing her. Funny enough, u might feel bad when she is talking or addressing Preggy mamas.,but behind dat stern and fierce look lies a kind hearted mama. Talking from experience.

[quote author=spiceeamiee post=59458785]


My dear i understand how you feel especially now that baby is reacting to the stuff.
Pls for the sake of peace, go and apologize to her. She is trying to black mail u emotional and for the fact that she is yet to have her own kids, everybody will believe whatever she says. It is not good to contend with in laws esp the ones as big as yours, it wears one out .
Just explain to her dat u never meant to hurt her feelings but dat u are just angry because baby is still too young to be fed such.
Like u said maybe she is actually ignorant of how to take care of babies, since she is still inexperienced.
Don't worry, ur baby will be fine.

[quote author=Droyal post=59366377]Good day mamas

Please does anyone have an idea about Igando maternal and child care center. ( General hospital). My questions are as follows.

1.Their days of registration as a first timer
2. What we need to take along ( cash and maybe other things) to register.
3.what to expect
4. Reviews (I have had people who delivered there and they gave excellent reviews but this was like 2 years ago) pls I would appreciate current info.
5. Costs
6.Any other information necessary.

Pls don't mind my plenty questions



1.Go on Tuesday's
2.Go with your husband for blood donation and 17,000 as your first deposit
3.At d first visit, after the first deposit, a folder will be open for you, HIV test will b conducted and a sample of your blood will be collected to run series of test which you will collect d results on your second visit. You will also go for your first scan.All these is after the matron has finished checking your vitals. They will then book u for your antenatal.


Second visit, u pay 13,200.
After delivery, you pay 19,000(for vd) or(79,000)for Cs depending.


4.Used them last year, and their service is good but you must b patient with dia protocols.

I think this is it for now.
U are free to ask me any more question.
All the best.
