Experienced mamas pls my baby is 2 weeks and 3 days old.. she got some rashes on a face about 6 days ago and it keeps spreading over the face..is there anything I can use to clear them off?..thanks

Use only tributan as her body cream for now until it clears off. Its a normal thing to have the rash.

[/b] U must burp him.. And pls don't call that stressful... Not burping them immediately after each feed does more harm than good... It happend to my elder sis.. If not for my mums intervention... The milk was coming out thru her baby's nose which almost choked her...
So my dear, let it not stress u. 9mnths no be 9days[b]

Should one still burp when he falls asleep while feeding?

Congratulations @booqee... Thank you Jesus for her safe delivery. Kai I've been following you up since your ms days. I'm so happy for you. Welcome little princess, you're a joy to your home. Welcome to motherhood.

Anugod:
The last time I checked my weight around 30 something weeks I was 102kg
After that I refused to go for antenatal again


But thankfully I am now back to my 60kg prepregnancy weight

Lol @prepregnancy

@booqee what is happening to your diary na? I've been anticipating for an update. Boredom is finishing me here at home and LO wants all of me. Your diary is one of the ones that keeps me going. Pls do something. Hope you're prepared for the arrival of your LO or have you put to bed already?

khaite23:
I really hope ooooooo...... may God give you the strength. cos wen my nephew's own was done, despite nt witnessing I almost shed tears. Then the doctor advised them to be putting olive oil on it atleast 5 times in a day and it really worked. The plastic fell in time.

Oh your own better. My doc said I shouldn't put anything.. I should only give breast milk. Hm.. My grandma put penicillin, wet in concern her. It healed faster and relieved the pain. Tho the hospital prescribed vitamin c for him.

gabby18:
Yeah I know of silverbird...heard its not suitable for babies under 2months so I eventually went to the hospital. The doc still prescribed silver bird ( add a drop of the SB to hot water and allow the baby inhale the steam facing downwards..remove the babys face fron time to time when it gets too hot..she also prescribed vit c drops.
Thanks alot

You're right o! I had to quickly browse it... Said its not suitable for babies under 2months, while some said under 10yrs. Above its not suitable for children.. Then why do they prescribe it for us?

Liftedhands:
Number 1 normal bathing is okay! No need for additional washing of the nipples ( it not like you rub dirt on it).

Number 2 sounds like colic do the bicycle moves and give him some tummy time it will ease off soon.


Number 3 Are you on exclusive or combined feeding?

Breast milk digest really fast so babies tend to feed more often than formula fed baby's. If you need a break express and give someone to feed baby, I don't think you are over feeding him nor spoiling him.

Thank you. That express would be better.

hunniesuzie:
You've gotten good answers on these but just to add, 6 weeks is still young, nothing like spoiling. Breastmilk digests as quickly as 2 hours. Formula can last up to 3 hours. His stomach is still small, feed him biko

Lol it doesn't even last up to an hr. I feed every 45mins hence the 20times in a day except when he is asleep. I put him to sleep on his chest so he can sleep longer and won't cry for breast milk. It wasn't like this initially... He just begun asking for more. I can hardly sleep.

hunniesuzie:
Be careful sha, my baby reacted badly to silverbird on his skin so observe well

Hm! Really?!

omotolanibaby:
u can also put little drop of silver bird on ur baby oil for the hair, that's Wat I did for my boy. since then no cold or catarrh

Oh nice that's another gud option. Thanks I've learnt a new one.

Good morning mamas.. Three questions

1. Please how can a breastfeeding mother take care of the nipples? I just feel I'm not doing enough. While bathing I use a wet towel to clean but I feel its not enough hygiene.

2. My baby makes so much noise whenever he wants to pass gas or pee or poop. Pls is it normal?

3. How often can a mother breastfeed her baby in a day? Bcus my boy of 6weeks feeds at any time. If its not up to 20times in a day sometimes. He doesn't cry for anything other than breast milk. I want to know if I'm over feeding or spoiling him already? He is beginning to know his rights.

Bomgirl:
Good morning, mothers.
Please my 4 week old baby sometimes breathes like he has phlegm in his throat , especially when sleepy but his nose is clear.
Is there anything I can do to get it out?
He's not having trouble breathing, I just don't like the sound.

Do you rub his back after feeding? I do experience that too but only when I don't rub his back after feeding. I can recommend silver bird too. It does wonders for congestions. Try both.

gabby18:
Hello mamas...pls what can I use for my 6wk old baby...his nose gets stuffy at night...like nasal congestion,..iv tried rubbing shea butter around his nose but its still there...

Kindly help a ftm...thanks

Go to a pharmacy and get silver bird. Its a liquid. It can be used for babies and adults for cold, catarrh and the rest. Just put a drop on your baby's cloth his wearing or beside his pilow or anything cloth around so he can be inhaling it.

Hello mamas in the house. My 5weeks old baby has been having skin rash on his neck and back. At first my mil said its normal(I agree) but now its getting worse. I stopped using a particular moju powder and started with one chicco powder that helped cleared it a bit but the healing is slow. Now I'm using tributan to see if itll work. I'm beginning to think its Ella

luckygirl02:
Mothers pls come to my rescue. My baby is six months and has been having high temperature for about two days now. Some said it's teething and advised me to get gbomoro and ibuprofen for him which I did, but still no changes at all. He looks so lean coupled with brownish eyes. He was immunized the day the temperature started, that was on wednesday. At first I thought it was cos of the injections he took, So i was expecting him to be better by yesterday but the high temperature persists. I have been using the gbomoro and ibuprofen to calm it down but it keeps coming back. Worst is always at night. He is always hot from head to toe. Even his mouth makes my breast tips hot when he sucks. He doesn't play like before and cries frequently. Are all these normal for teething? Biko am a ftm.

Don't wait any second again, go back to the hospital.

Liftedhands:
HolySteph due to the nature of my surgical wound when I delivered it was my doctor that told me to nurse while lying down, it was a life saver for us cos I couldn't sit up at the time.

The thing is I had a nurse or relative with me all the time just in case I doze off they will adjust baby's nose for me.

The risk is suffocation nothing else! Don't try it if you are a heavy sleeper or roll about when asleep .

OK thank you. I'm not a deep sleeper. Sorry about your surgery. Hope you're better now?

hunniesuzie:
Me I started doing it from I think 8 weeks sha. And my boobs aren't too big

If your mind carry am, carry go

Moderate

casler:
Size of breast matter,the bigger,more dangerous

OK thanks

FloraEC:
No is not advisable. I started doing that at 8months to avoid choking

Chain its not easy getting up to sit up and breastfeed.

sassyangel1:
Pls, don't don't don't lie down to breastfeed especially at this age. I knw it's tiring buh the later effects (God forbids) is more exhausting n terrible.

Chai e no eazi o

Nimi22:
I started since my baby was 4 weeks and since then no going back when he was less than 3 months I made sure I don't sleep deeply so I can easily remove it from his mouth when he sleeps but now both of us sleep till I remember I was feeding someone before I slept. Pls make sure ur boob is not covering his nose and it is not out of his mouth so milk won't enter his nose, then u can raise his head on ur hands.

That's exactly what I do. Tho he let's go of the nippl.e when he is done and wants to continue with his sleep.

Sansa143:
Not bad but ensure dat ur bo.obs dos not covers lo's nose.Bin doing dat 4 a while too and it has helped alot.

Sure! Thank you.

Good morning mamas. Is it adviceable to breastfeed while lying down? I do it mostly at nights for my 5weeks old baby. I feel its quite easier for the baby and myself cus I can be asleep while baby is sucking. Pls is it a good one? Am a New mom.

greatp80:
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.

Oh Thank you so much for this. So sincere!

suremum:
Most people keep baby warm when they are newly born because they are straight from the womb which is warm and if exposed now that they are with us, they may feel cold and all and they are too young to regulate there body temperature but please dont keep ur baby too hot to the extent of sweating that is not cool as baby can even start having skin issues. If you notice he is too hot pls reduce the cloths he has on. Babys cloth should be a layer thicker than urs.

Thank you ma.

beautifulrosa:
Hello mamas, how are we and our precious ones?

Please, today i noticed the white in my baby's eye has turned slightly redish. I wonder what it is. Plus there is this yellowish discharge i cleaned from his eyes at night. Only at nyt. That one has stopped.

What could possibly be wrong? And what can i do to restore the white of his eyes to normal. He ll be 5weeks on wednesday ans BTW his vaccination is next week.

Ur inputs are important. Kindly help a FTM. Thanks

Put breastmilk into his eyes and watch it brighter than before. MIL taught me that.. I was reluctant until I tried for my baby.. Worked like magic.

Naomi14:
How old is your baby?

3 weeks and 4 days.

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

So I just lost my only brother and sister in law. So painful. These two good hearted ones. Jae and Shaddy I'll forever miss you two.

hunniesuzie:
Ok. For now don't allow him to be hot. Also suspend the coconut oil for now. Did you make it yourself/do you know the person you bought from? Like other mamas have said let his bath water not be too hot at all

Thank you very much ma. I had to switch to johnsons oil.

lightedpath:
Lukewarm water should be used not hot. You dont have to overdress the baby, the weather is hot. Let the room be well ventilated. If the coconut oil was not made by you, pls switch to olive oil and it shouldn't even be too much on the skin.

Thank you so much.
