Family / Re: Should I Employ My Ex Girlfriend's Hubby In My Company? by itsmelex(f): 8:37pm On Dec 11, 2013
Please in the name of whatever God you pray to,call him and give him the job.But also let him know about what you both had back then but you really love to help out as she chose him.Make him appear ok and please tell him he can be on it till he gets something else.
I guess it is about the friendship right,pls keep respecting her home but dnt also make him feel she asked you.Relate with him man to man,he'll feel ok trust me and since you have some sense of reason this will help keep you incheck that she is taken

zinylizzy: hi mamas.good work y'all. i'l soon start work and will be doing night duties ans weekend duties. my baby is 9 months old.will I be able to get a nanny dt will look after my baby nights and weekends when i'm at work? hubby is not around now.getting a live in househelp has been difficult. my mum is still working


You cant tell if U can until U try , I mean try talkn to d few U see. You may get, expecially those living aone. U may just broaden your search width. Well for me its dificult to leav my baby all alone at night with "stranger", but U'r on a thight corner now so I'l sugest U also invit her when you'r around and see hw they fare.

Goodluck Dear

veronix: Hello mothers, I decided 2 give ​​​your advice a trial bt with the cotton bud cos I've been using my lil finger. OMG! I just tried it dis evenin and b4 I cld say jack robbinson, the young man released the bomb. I tried it again lyk 3 times απϑ he really released it all. So hɑքքվ! Kudos 2 Ŭ all.
Another probs is that m baby boy has full hair απϑ all of a sudden, I started seeing dandruffs. I began puttin plenty of johnson baby oil but its not working and I don't really want 2 cut my baby's hair. What can I use 2 get rid of those things.
Thanks once more.

Wow! I can only imagine how releaved U must have felt! "oh at last!" and in your boy's mind he will b shouting "freedom!" grin

My son's hair was almst developing dandruf too, jst around the top soft part only. I didnt notic it earlier until one day when I decided to "plait" it cos it was full and grown and I wntd to explore grin . I reduced the oil I was using, mixed a very litle quantitu wit coconut oil and tried to wash well but gently, I made sure I washed away d previous oil and not jst d sufface hair. I letter noticd it reducd and den no more. Now his hair can be held one(can pack one) and no drufs. I'll cut by wkend; so eager.lol.

However Dear, nothing stops you from triming d hair oh, I wantd to but neva had opportunity and tim I kept procastinating until now that his comb is far far bigger than mine oh. I didnt regret though bc it preventd cold and servd as pad when he had a minor fall once..... heard there are baby shampoos dont knw any and cant testify of it.
I hope this helps and somone else could tel better option.

Honiepie24: @itsmelex,no no no,nofin is wrong wit addin okro,bt for a starter who is not used to bumpin fins in his mouth durin feedin wont find it a pleasure at all,he might entirely reject d whole food because of it,jus prepare nice tasty n light, ogbono with deboned ice fish,as u feed him press d fish as though u r mashin it,at d same time checkin for bone,nd he wud eat.

maxiflexi: My colleague saw me buying bananas for my almost 8mth old baby & asked if I dewormed her @ 6mths. This is the first I'm hearing about deworming a baby, mum & MIL say its not necessary. Pls mums in the house, when did u deworm ur babies?

My son is 11mnths+ and not dewormed, but I'v given him water from saint leaf once. I googled about this somtime ago and didnt find where babies are dewormd, just toddlers for some, mayb I'l check again...
curious too....


@all, the point of breastmilk getting spoilt(in d bossom oh!) is gradually given me concern oh. For two days now my boy has not sucked from the breast(and I'v stoped bumping), he just turns the ni*pple to switch button and uses his tumb on it. I'v always wantd to stop earlier but dont knw why am concerned now. I think he is teething now and maybe the reason for refusing to nurse, but should I be concernd of giving him 'spoilt' milk if he choose to suck later today or tmrw?... realy concerned.... or I should just stop?....arrrgggg!!

I gave my kids Milo from 6months n yes they stooled at first n I reduced d Milo,d stooling stopped when they started getting used 2 it.Seriously I av never heard of beverages 4 kids maybe u should ask her so that we can also review it n try it out.

Thanks sis. I have stoped the milo sharpally.lol. its just very litle oh, not more than 2baby feeding spoon! Will try again maybe next week or even later. She said she couldnt remember names but will definately find out when I see her in person.


tjskii: The 1st time I gav my son milo,he also pooped,I figured it was cos his system wasn't used to something so sweet(same thing happened when I started giving him bananas),so I gav it a space of bout 3days and I tried again,gradually d pooping stopped.

Dunno much bout beverages for kids though,I just waited til he was a year old when I cud be sure that to a certain extent his system cud handle wholemilk and adult beverage

Thanks oh. Same thing happened to my boy too when I tried finger bananas, since then I have not attempted finger bananas again. He will be one year by month end.
