lightedpath:
Hello all. Sorry to be sharing this sad news but i have to update u. Had baby last night but lost it. Had to be induced after passing due date. All went well nd heartbeat was checked regularly. But by the time he was born he didn't cry. Every thing was done to resuscitate him to no avail. I pray no other on this thread experience this. It is well!

hmm,its well with u,may d Lord comfort u himself,take charge...

I got this from 'ask the pediatricians' page.

[b]Kafura (white tar) is an aromatic hydrocarbon similar to Camphor. And like camphor, it is chemically manufactured from turpentine oil. It has a pungent irritant smell like camphor and other oils like Eucalyptus, and is used in products such as RubRub/Robb imitations. Like the other similar products, it is designed for external use only!!! But by the time you decide to start ingesting it, it is at your own risk and you have nobody to blame. It is also important to understand its volatility, hence ingesting in can lead to chemical injuries to you gut and to your lungs.

Kafura?? You mean those pungent round things

Please don't!!! 7 months, 7years, 70years, it's not of any value. Its dangerous!! You can as well give him soap or insect spray!! They are in the same category! Please don't!!

Aromatic hydrocarbon, including camphor, kafura, and even other mineral oils definitely have their health benefits.

These may include: Their properties as a stimulant, antispasmodic, antiseptic, decongestant, anesthetic, sedative and nervous pacifier, antineuralgic, anti-inflammatory, disinfectant, and insecticide substance.

But REMEMBER:
These substances are TOXIC and can be FATALLY POISONOUS if ingested in excess. Ingestion of a slight overdoses can be LETHAL. It’s always safe to remember that a substance which is toxic for insects can be toxic for human beings as well.


JEDIJEDI IS NOT A DIAGNOSIS!!!

It is a local diagnosis that some people have coined as an umbrella term for several types of GIT gastrointestinal problems.

If your child has any git problem, please see your doctor for the correct diagnosis and proper treatment.[/b]

I hope this helps

Mamas abeg,has any1 heard of one undescendd testes wch can delay circumcision,nurse kaffy nd oda medical team i nid ur response abeg......

Happymama sitz bath water should never be hot!!! Lukewarm or just plain water! Hot water will desolve the thread before the wound is properly healed which may lead to re stitching and you dont want that
thanks maam,bt if plain water is used au wil d place heal,pls explain more

kaffy4bill:
Not very hot oooo, pls ensure its at a degree u can sit comfortably in.

thanks maam 4 d response,bt is it 2sit on d container of d water or in d water,pls explain au its 2b done...
