[quote author=sasi_malia]Hello ladies!

How are you all? I have been on NL for a few years. I struggled with infertility and was in the PCOS and trying to conceive thread. Thank God who is so faithful, I just recently gave birth to my first baby, a boy who is now 6 weeks.

It's been great sofar, not as challenging as I thought it would be and we (hubby and I) have adjusted very well. The only problem is the colics. It's not as bad as a few weeks ago when he would cry and cry at night, now he mostly grunts (very loudly) and stretches and moans a little bit when he is crampy which is mostly when he sleeps. What can I do?
I have tried gripe water, doesnt work. I had been told abt bitter kola nut (grind it, soak it in a little bit of water and give it to the baby and he will poo alot and it will stop) but didnt want to do it (i hate the taste myself) plus I wanted to read about it first but of course3 I didnt find any info about it since its more like a traditional remedy. At wits end I did it yesterday, I gave about 10ml (2 teaspoons or a little over half a tablespoon) of the kola nut water around 11pm yesterday but nothing sofar. Baby does poo a few times a day, sometimes a lot, sometimes just a little and sometimes stringy and seedy. I breastfeed exclusively but no particular changes and he still grunts, moans and stretches from the tummy discomfort.
Please share what has worked for you if anything. I know its not that big of a deal and it will overgrow it but its still painful to see him like that. However for the first time since he was born he slept from 1am until now (its noon
and he is still sleeping, and woke up only at 6am and 9am to feed) so that comforts me.[/quote]congratulation my sis dat bitter kola work for me just once it start instil d water to him,it wil stop

omogemi: just normal b complex syrup. U can get it @ d pharmacy. I ll suggest u give her 5ml 2ce a day. What u ll do is dis. When u wake up in d morning, breastfeed her. Let her have her fill. When she burps or after abt 10mins, give d b complex. Then go bath her. Dont offer breast again. Instead, go prepare her food. If she wants to sleep aftr d bath let her. But if she dsnt sleep, let her play. When she crys out for d breast again offer her d pap. She may not lyk d position u place her. Try another method. Let her sit in a chair. Or place her on ur lap sitting n sing rhyms for her or any song she likes . Offer her d food and see if she takes. If she dsnt take d pap leave her just dnt offer breast at dt moment. And if she takes a spoon or two, fyn, let her sleep with that. When she wakes u ll offer food again.

thank u maa let me try it

omogemi: okay now we can start from somewhere. stick to pap for now. do u mix it with milk? moreso dont u think u are giving her too much drugs at the same time? just give bco syrup. my baby used to have the same problem too though she wasnt vomiting

another thing; how do u feed her? as in what position do u place her?

dat is what i did,i stick to pap,i mix it wit sma milk,i position her head at my left side.pls which type of bco wil i buy pls recommed

omogemi: what does she eat? as in what foods do u give her? does she accept it? have u tried homemade meals? does she eat cereal?isit that she doesnt eat what u offer at all or she takes a little? u need to give more info so mothers on this thread can help u. what i ll sugest first is to give bcomplex syrup only no multivita or vitamin c. it helps boost appetite in babies. when she's hungry, dont give her the breast; offer food in a little quantity.

@Ayobarmy. ur wife may not see herself the way u see her. so she may not be bothered abt the tummy. until she sees herself the way itmelex did.

omogemi i ve tried friso rice,cerelac maize,cerelac rice ad pap.all dis tin food she start vomiting it immediately but pap she wil not vomit it but d problem is let d pap to enter her stomach

itsmelex: So sorry oh. Have you tried oranges/multivitamins to boost her appetit? Oranges work well for me. U can try the egg yoke ( just put litle in her mouth to lick ) I gues it can make her thirsty and dont forget she's a baby and may not drink as much as we expect as the quantity may look too small for us. does she urinate well?

Strickly my opinion oh! all d best

i do give her multivita,vit c,B complex no improvment.d egg york she refuses it.am always crying everyday about dis pls any other suggestion

itsmelex: @Debbi, U can start with pap first, thier tender stomach tolerates that. If you decide to introduce tin food, start with a light cereal like rice, leav wheat till she is much older(this is from my own experience oh, she may tolerat it).

Cant remember all now but U could try these:
-peeled apple boiled and mashed
-irish or sweet potatoes, boiled and mashed ( I add crayfish, titus and tiny magerine or olive oil while cooking and blend all together)
-blended oats(to smooth whil dry), cook and add milk
-well cooked and mashed peeled beans(I introduced this at about 9mnths and very minut quantity..not much at all)
-egg yoke (somtimes I add this to well cooked/mashed white rice)
-yougut

These are the ones I can remember now. I'l sugest you try the pap for 2-3wks first befor gradualy introducing any other thing U feel lik. I started my baby on solid at exactly 6mnths! pap is mild, you can make it very light...dnt forget U introduc a food at a time and wait for like 4days before introducing another(I waited upto a week to intro new food cause my boy is very sensitive...but now two days max)

In all sis, do what you'r comfortable with and if you'r very confused visit the ped. Heard every mum has great instinct, don't ignor yours now!

All the best

pls itmelex i real need help i ve been battling wit my baby she is going to 8 months she doesn't eat i ve tried many tin pls what will i do her d worse part of it is water she doesn't drink it pls real need help urgent

itsmelex: @juli. sory for the stress U'r going thru sounds lik U did exclusive lik me. my boy frownd his face at water as if I added venega ooo. I jst waitd again til d weda was hot and instead of breastmilk I gav him water, he had no choice but tuk litle, somtims I made it very lukwarm to know if he will take it nd anytim I try to giv him I always say "wata wata". Now if he hears wata he wil grab the cup, lean forward and open his mouth!

Did she throw up at d can food too? did U try pap? I think her tommy wil tolerate it as she threw up at adult food. Mine didnt even open his mouth for the rice cereal,cerelac, at 6mnths but I forced d food inside ooo, provided him no vomit!lol, until he got used to the taste. I pray she starts eating normaly soon! All the best ooo

yes i did ebf d can food is d worst,she take d pap but wit force am not finding it easy am tied

maxiflexi: Does she show intrest when you are eating? If she does, try feeding her what you are eating, while you are eating (google baby led weaning).
My 5months old has suddenly stopped bosom feeding & screams when I try to bosomfeed her. She only wants 2 drink water even at night!

no she is not even if i give her what am eating to taste d food she will vomit d worst she also refuse water

mums pls my baby wil be 7m on 27th she refuse to eat only d bossom she want.i ve introduce her friso gold rice,celerac maize,celerac rice ad pap she refuse all,d worse is water i force her to drink water wit all dis tin she do makes me cry.pls great mums help me what wil i do,am suggesting to stop her bossom to know if she will be eating pls help me

blank: I had this same issue a couple of days. I know he is too old to have that fore milk/hind milk issue. So I went to dinner doctor and he immediately started him on flagyl and ort. He started running temperatures at nite until the 3rd day when everything cleared. Said it was an infection he picked up.
I had started him on septrin as the older one had diarrhoea without the green stool and septrin was working for him. Hope you got help.

thank u very much

julicoka: Gd day sometin lead me to this place how will i add crayfish to guinea corn pls and is it good to mix guinea corn ad millet for baby under six months ur advice is urgent needed

pls somebody should help me out very urgent

blank: Please wait until the baby is up to a year at least. Just as you don't give a baby adult's milk, don't give him soy milk just yet. You can give him guinea corn pap (it is brown in colour) and add crayfish to it.

This is my own opinion o. I made some research on it previously. There are some soy milk baby formulas that they market to babies but i don't think they are healthy for the baby esp if he has colic or has allergies.

Gd day sometin lead me to this place how will i add crayfish to guinea corn pls and is it good to mix guinea corn ad millet for baby under six months ur advice is urgent needed
