......... she is doing great,taking her first steps thiss week ....about the location,i would prefer abuja but I also won't mind ph or lag since I have family in these places

glamor:
Mothers goodevening.i know this forum is not meant for my request but this is where I can get who am looking for.i know how difficult it was for me to handle taking care of my baby and job hunting so I had to take her to my mum for now,till I sort somethings out. Am a graduate and I have searched for jobs all to no avail. I know patience plays a good role here but I do not have that luxury since I have a baby to feed and parents to take care of.i know some mums don't feel comfy taking their new babies to crèches and getting a decent nanny is tough.these mothers are the ones I want to work for.i can take care of your baby everyday and leave when you get home.i was alone with my baby till she got to 7 months so I have lots of experience. Please reach me on 08077313676.however you want me to prove am legit,i will

wow! how are you? kudos for taking this bold step. you didnt indicate location. how is she doing?

Moca! I'm trying to reach you. Loads of warm hug. Stay cool and we got your back. Don't do anything funny. Pls mail me. Pls

@ rezzy I'm so sad to hear that cos I rem u told us how great ur boss has been to you. It is well o! I hope you don't plan to sit at home o! Now is the best time to look for another job. Hugs

Hahahahah. I will help u as someone born in that area. Go to Johnson street in main market. You will get good bargain there but ensure u shine eye well make dem no cheat u. If u ask for a product and u are told to hold on that's its their "packing store" just know its not available and they want to collect from another shop and add their own%. Do small market survey before u start shopping. Hold ya bag tight o! Na for armpit sure pass. Lolll.

ayobarmy:

enioladimeji:
I'm asking because if it's close to the 300g frisogold, sista! i go carry myself go shoprite right away and buy as many as possible cos it's far cheaper than friso (1200 per 300g). The one i saw in my area is 200g, (not in a tin) and it's N600.

Sista! I no look the gramme! Its cereal( rice, wheat and corn with different flavours)

enioladimeji:

6months. I'm not sure if they have under 6months. Its in packets and the puree in bottles

mummy2be:
Lovinam pls from what age can a baby start taking d purity cereal?and also is it in a can in formular form

Hi room.
Moca! How are you?

Read the contents. Purity is more fortified just like aptamil is way better than sma( I've read the contents and was amazed). Yes about the water part, just add your clean water and scoops of milk to the cereal. I've used the product for years and no rwaction

franky2013:

It's not everything the eyes sees that the mouth speaks...

Iffffffy( d only mama I count 123 to write her name). You know we got ur back real good. Right now I will tell you to stay calm. My major concern is our precious lil one. This matter will be sorted out when the right time comes. You are hurt, dh is confused. This is not the time to talk about it. Stay calm for the sake of your baby and also to avoid saying things you might regret. I will say give him the benefit of doubt. You might be shocked at the real story. It might not be what u think. We love u and loads of hug to you. Please try and get some sleep tonight. Play music to calm yourself

Amen! Na "generational" bed e don be. Have u made a choice? See the difference in price acc to mumzgirl. Na so dem take chop my money den o. Lol

Use google too. I didn't allow my babies watch telly o! I tried it with my first and she got so carried away and distracted by it that it took me a couple of years to correct. Her pre primary work hard the greatest hit. I know it keeps ur baby quiet but its not advisable.

enioladimeji:
I don't get. Too young to.watch TV? Why?
He's been watching TV since , God knows when.

forlahkhe:
Pls my question is directed to d full time mom in naija(FTM)....pls ao do u do it I dropped my job(marketting) @ my first trimester of preg and av been @home since then. DH works til sat and uses his sun to rest, he coms bak late frm work cos of lagos hold-up, my only assigned job is to do d normal wife chores in d aos bt I can't even keep up to task*sad face*. My 7months old boy won't lemme leave his side. He plays on his own bt I av to b there wt him else he's cry of fall *learning to stand on his own*. DH doesn't buy d idea of creche for LO cos he feels I'm not doing anytin so I gat no excuse. I'm even afraid of some creche nowadays dt wl giv ur child syprigold. Meanwhile, my LO would play on his own

Hahahahahhahahaha abeg permit me to laugh. Story of my life. My first baby was so clingy! OMG! It was an experience I will never forget. That's what made me start the independent training on time. Never allowed me to cook, wash, sweep etc. Hubby felt I was too lazy( in his mind sha). I vex one day and just left her to cry. Since that day she calmed down o! Go get a washing machine( so clothes won't pile up). Cook food and pack in the freezer( soup, stew etc) take a lil time to watch a movie( to calm ur nerves). I noticed when I'm agitated my baby becomes cranky. All the best and loads of hugs
NB: do family planing o! Cos if another one enter na eim be say ur hair go tanda wellla! Lol

Awww darling. I would have sent to you but a friend don book am. Months ago sef. she booked in faith and I'm believing with her for twins. I will deliver to her by december. Make sure u get good quality o!

tchiwinnie:
Thanks so much. Lovinam. But u still dey find hu to pass urs onto? Bring am my way nau. Shoo! Abi u still want me to pray more for ur lastborn

Catarrh can cause high temp in babies. Take him to d doc and get him tested for malria too.

joyousf:
I am back again o.

my baby woke up to feed only to realise his temp was high 38.8. I also noticed he has catarrh abi blocked nose. I used pcm.nocof drop n vit c. I doubt its malaria cos there s almost none in our room n can't remember any biting him recently though we are considering treating him for that in d morning just to rule it out.

I'm just wondering if its teething. he is five months. for the past three days he has pooed once or max of twice per day. its more watery n a little greenish. I didn't worry about it cos his paed told me to expect greenish poop around t4-6 months. plus he drools a lot n wants to chew on everything esp pples fingers. just looked it up online now n they said these can b symptoms of teething. pls how does one really know d. baby is teething

I've also heard teething rings help pls can anyone upload a pic of one.don't av an idea wat it looks like. I av pacifiers though. do they serve same purpose.

thanks

tchiwinnie:
Wow 10yrs! Biko can i see a pix? Whr did u buy and for how much. My son still sleeps wt me and i really wonder when he ll start sleeping on his own. Want to get one so dat my oda children ll sleep on their own frm day 1.

I plan to give it out once my baby out grows it. The bed don try and besides I'm not planing to birth another o! Lol. Seriously go for wooden bed, it last waaaay longer than the cloth type. All I do is to change the foam and bedding after each baby. It still looks the way it did when I got it. It was pretty expensive , I rem it was not less than 40k nd I cried bitterly after the purchase. Lmao! Oya who de rejoice now! ! Always go for quality stuff. I got it at the mothercare shop elpina plaza VI then o!

tchiwinnie:
@ Pushing mamas how we dey? God s our strenght o.
Lovinam (or any oda mana dat has a baby cot), pls can u send me a pix of ur baby cot? Do u regret having one? Is it useful for a toddler? How much did it cost. Btwn buying one and making one myslf wch is better? I wld appreciate ur sincere rsponse. Thanks.

I say BUY it. I've had mine for 10years and counting. Its still strong kakaraka. Its a mother care wooden cot. Go for the wooden one. It helps baby become slightly independent( no clingy tins) it makes their transition to childrens room easy. It easy to store too and its adjustable. ( Un screw and pack up)

Do you still breastfeed him? If no then u have to give him water. If yes then increase ur water and fruit intake.

TopeMel:
Pls mothers.... what can i give my baby to make him have a soft poo? He is a month plus old, feeds more on formula, his poo is always hard and most times doesn't poo unless we put warm water in his anus..... was told to give seven seas cod liver oil.

Tolexander:
mummy wa, e ku itoju wa o.
Olorun a toju eyin na o

Amen! God bless you too.

Yes better than friso...

Chinyeaka85:
@ Mummy Lovinam, this purity food u are talking about is better than friso gold rice, right?

shndy:
Ma'am is it better than Gerber?

I'm not sure, but the cereal is really good. They also have fruit puree.

Try any big supermarket there or aks anyone in Enugu to get it for you.

Chinyeaka85:
@ Mummy Lovinam, thanks a million. I will look for purity cereals. But I stay in Onitsha, don't know if I can find it here.

Its possible. Or it could be change of environment too.

Chinyeaka85:
Sweetest Mamas pls, can change of food for a baby cause skin rashes or cough? My LO was feeding on Lactogen 2 and Friso gold rice based cereal, we travelled this week and the friso got finished. I searched all the shops around but no friso, so I bought cerelac rice and maize after feeding my lo that night and the next day I noticed serious rashes all over his body with severe cough and difficulty in breathing. Pls do u think the change is the cause? And what other good and nutritious cereals and baby food can I buy for my prince. We just started eating 3 weeks ago after EB. Thank u

if you still want to continue with cereal try purity foods. It can be found in major supermarkets. Shoprite sells it cheapest @ below 300 Naira a pack
