I love this, how did you get this smooth paste, what's the recipe? Pls share other recipes.. Can I chat you on whatsapp pls?

Sure you can.

Other recripes: Beans, ripe plantain and fish
Steam to still retain their nutrients then blend with crayfish.

Broccoli, chicken and sweet potato. Do same.

Cook unripe plantain, with onions, crayfish and fish(mackerel or shiny) precisely, small ugu leaf/spinach(owo leaf as called in the local market) then add a half teaspoon of palm oil. When soft, you blend.
Don't use milk for this particular recipe to get the consistency you want. The water you used in cooking the meal should be enough to get it. Just don't let the water dry up.

i'll upload pictures whenn next I prepare these meals again.

wowdiva:
This is very timely! Thanks for taking the initiative...
The mashed potatoes, can I add breast milk, as oppose to for formula? What consistency should the potatoes be? Very watery? What amount of milk should I add to the potato puree?

The mashed potatoes, can I add breast milk, as oppose to for formula?
Yes you can add milk.

What consistency should the potatoes be? Very watery?
Not very water and not very thick, just inbetween.

What amount of milk should I add to the potato puree?
The amount you think is ok.

A typical example below.. Though that is with carrot and egg York.

I throway salute to the wonderful mamas...I'm a first time mom, my LO will be 11 months old next week but he's yet to cruise around holding furnitures. He doesn't crawl but he butt shuffles, sits on his own (gets up and sit), rolls over, claps, not babbling yet but talks much eeehhh, aahhh. i understand babies are different but im still very worried.

Aww I understand you my dear. Don't panic, just be happy and peaceful with stages he is in now. You can also be encouraging him by putting his favourite toys far from him to reach out to them. But still don't give yourself much to worry about, he'll get there, after all no adult is still crawling nor trying to stand bear that in mind.

rvpbae:
Have u tried a colorful sippy cup or straw cup? Nuby brands have quite a few. You get those with handles, that way he can hold and tip to his mouth. You have to keep trying, he needs it. But waiting to 9months was a risk o.

hunniesuzie:
Offer him the water before meals (when he's hungry). Don't use feeding bottles, get a colourful sippy cup that he can hold. 9 months is a fully formed person so it will be harder but be persistent

Water is very very critical immediately you stop exclusive, the water in BM is not adequate

goodhairdiary:
Have you tried giving him with cup?
Ds used to be like that, but he loves water now
Just continue giving it to him, with time he'll get used to it
9m is too young for sachet water, you'll have tried that.

Thank you so much mamas for helping me out. He now drinks the water after so many fights, i kept trying and trying till he started swallowing it down, tho with spoon, he just hates the feeding bottle with a passion. At least this spoon I can manage it for now while i'll still try the bottle till he eventually gets used to it.

Thank you so much.

Good day mamas
Its been a while on here
Hope we are all fine

Biko EBF mums, I want to know
How long did it take for your period to return??
I am almost 19 weeks pp and I don't want stories that touch

Cc all sabi mamas

My dear don't complain.. I'm almost 9months thats 36weeks and i havnt seen. Im not complaining all I know is it'll come when it's ready.

Good morning mamas in the house.

Pls help a worried mum out. My boy is almost 9months, he did exclusive for six months plus till I introduced solids(light solids with breastmilk) without water. Now I've started introducing water, he has refused to take water. It's always a tug of war whenever I'm spoon feeding him water bcus he doesn't like feeding bottles, so I'm left feeding him with spoon, of which i have to fight with him to take just few spoons. Most he'll spit it out or uses his tongue to push the spoon out of his mouth. I'm worried bcus he has started experiencing constipation and I can't be giving him breast to suck all the time he rejects water or giving him the 'P' fruits when water is essential to the body.
Pls is there any other means I could use to deceive him? Help pls!

Funmi2510:
Pls Mamas which diaper is d best to use.... I was told to go for molfix size 1 but couldn't find it in d market..can a new born use size 2.. Because they were telling me that size 1 is used for premature babies

There is Molfix new born. Check for it. Huggies is another best choice.

Am I the only one who thinks she has that striking resemblance with bobrisky?

ElectroLyte:
Mod pls change your weed, its 911 not 999

Lol... this got me laughing.

I was actually confused myself.

And this news is coming in today.. something that happened yesterday early morning hours.. I'm sure it happened the night breaking yesterday morning.
Anyways kudos for informing us.

angeltolly:
If you are using formula, dissolve it in warm water and add your cereal. You must really be producing more than enough tho with lots energy to prepare cereal with breastmilk _{I envy you o}
If you are like me that use to help baby finish his cereal once he's satisfied , you may consider getting formular too [s] except you love drinking bwrestmilk [/s]

I have no choice sisi. Even as flat as slippers as the breast is now it still goshes out like a tap when he starts sucking.
Thanks

Liftedhands:
You can use BM if that's what your baby is on! Doesn't have to be formula. As long as you still produce enough biko carry go.

Naomi14:
You can use either breastmilk or formula.

Ilyfavoured:
You can use breast milk provided LO will finish the food at once. I haven't used breast milk to prepare any cereal got those that require just water but use BM to prepare puree

Thanks so much. I'll do just that. Thanks for your replies, I'm grateful.

Have a lovely day.

Hello mamas in the house. It's been a while. I hope you all doing well with babies.

Pls help me here.. I'm confused.

My baby just started solids. He's been taking purees which I mix with breast milk.

I got nutribom. On the preparation process, it says pour into milk and mix. But it didn't specify which kind of milk, if it's formula milk or breast milk.

I'm thinking of using breast milk bcus my baby hasn't taken formula milk before.

So mama's in the house, has anyone used breast milk for the preparation before and how was it?
