Old mamas, rukemi419, smokeydrinkey, wokeyim, tchiwinnie et all, welcome back on your second missionary journeys, happy and easy bumping.
Team October, dropping it like it's hot. I pray for fast and easy delivery for the rest of you.

Wokeyim:
Amen oh. Hello October Mamas how una dey feel now?

Madam, how are you doing? How is keyu baby and your dh?
Happy bumping to you. Wish you a safe delivery.

Please how do I participate in the group talk, I told the admin to tag me especially on the diabetes in children topic which they didn't. how do I get in the discussion? thanks

Maybe you can ask the admin, Gbemisola, to tag you again. It's not too late. The lecture was really educating.

joyousf:
you must be in that fbk GRP. I've also learnt a lot. God bless the person that recommended ask the paediatrician on this thread

Yes, I am. I have really learnt and I'm still learning a lot.

This is for mothers that give their kids wheat.
Wheat contains gluten that some people react to it. Wheat forces the pancreas to work so hard because it has a high glycemic index. It has also been found to play a role in autoimmunity.
Wheat is not good for an already established diabetic. But if you don't have Diabetes mellitus, the key word is TEMPERANCE... that is being moderate in all things. Some people are so tied to wheat that they must eat it every day. Besides, it's found in most stuff we eat e.g. biscuits, bread.

Good evening mothers, fathers and mothers to be. I recently learnt something very educating about diabetes and thought to share.
Contrary to popular belief, diabetes isn't caused by taking excess sugar. It is actually caused by something called autoimmunity.
Autoimmunity is a case where the body of a child produces antibodies that fight and eventually destroys the pancreas (which is the organ responsible for the production of insulin ).
Sadly, diabetes has been linked among other things, to obesity in kids.
I decided to bring this here, because I read how a lot of mothers want big/fat babies. This could be dangerous to their health.
So long as our kids eat healthy, we should not force them to be fat.
Thank you.

Whoop whoop, I'm dancing shakiti bobo. For the first time, I'm seeing a baby's picture posted here.
Deezou, God bless and keep him. Amen

LordReed:
Hello everyone. My DD is one and I want to switch her to Peak123 or any other good whole milk. Any reviews of Peak123 or any recommendations for any other milk is highly welcome.

I personally use Nido fortified for my kids. I believe it's better than peak 123.

Moca, may you find the peace you seek. I truly do not know what to say. This is beyond painful.

Please take heart. It is well

I have never before done pay before delivery online shopping, but I decided to take a chance with byvan03, and it paid off.

I got everything I ordered, in good quality and real time too.

I am a 100% satisfied and happy customer.

it was nice doing business with you, I look forward to doing more.

joyousf:
you have a point ma. thanks for the advice. I'd consider that as well. how is the family.

Family is doing great, thanks for asking. How are you and yours? Hope you have received your package.

MGeey:
Please has anyone use Tommy tippee manual breast pump before? Did it pump well? I'm worried because I tried expressing today n it only filled the bottom of the storage container which is very small. Someone told me me avent manual is better though she hasn't use Tommy tippee before.

I expressed after breastfeeding my son and I'm now worried that maybe I'm not producing enough (though my baby suckles and sleeps well when he's filled up). Please help a first time mum.

I also used tommee tippee pump, both manual and electric. They are very good.

I think you may not have gotten much milk because you pumped after breastfeeding your child. What I do if I need to pump is that I save one boob. I breastfeed through out the night on one and then pump the full one in the morning. Try it and see.

joyousf:
experienced mamas abeg I need ur advice on d type of walker to buy. I checked Konga and saw two main types.
1. The first one has seat and I am guessing that will help children learn to sit. My baby is just about 4 and a half months so I guess its more suitable but I am guessing that as soon as he can sit or crawl its goodbye to this type of walker.
2. activity walker: which is probably suitable for a child learning to walk.

So my question is does he really need the sitting one to learn how to sit? If he doesn't I'll just wait and by the second or do I need the two?

Thanks.

Joyousf, I bought the two, but that is because it was my first baby and I knew others coming behind him would use it too. If it's your 1st baby, and you can spare the cash, you can buy both as they have different uses.

I put my baby in the seat while cooking, or even when she's tired of lying down; that way, both of us are occupied

babythug:
I understand you shouldn't mix drugs like that oh!!! So this concoction may not be a good idea. You can give at intervals sweetened with Vit C i guess but mixing all is a no no!

Oh, really, thanks. I guess we learn new things daily. I will ask his pediatrician and check google too.

esteria:
Tnx @maran1983, I cudnt help but lol at "
My son is chief of vomiting drugs". Tnx for d useful tips, I truly apr8. God bless u nd ur lo.

Amen, you are welcome.

esteria:
I hail all my blessed sabi mamas ooo!!

1) To my experienced blessed mamas pls nd pls how did u handle a baby dat refuses to tk medicine?? Its always a struggles wit my almost 8month old lo even wen d med is sweet ooo, d worst part I hate d most is throwing up d med afta so much effort, it drives me nuts!

My son is chief of vomiting drugs. This is what I do. I have a beaker where I put all the drugs he's supposed to take eg, if he's to take 5mls of paracetamol, 10mls of capquine and 5 mls of amoxylin. I put all in the beaker, then use the small cup that comes with the drugs to give him the concoctionin little bits.
I'll 1st give him 5mls, wait for about 10 to 15 minutes, give him another 5mls, wait for 10 mins and keep giving him till I'm done. After that, I wait for an hour or two, before feeding him.
I forgot to mention, I give him drugs 2 hours after his meal, so that his stomach will be near empty and even if he tries vomiting, nothing will come out.
No matter what I'm treating, I often add vit c, to sweeten the mix.
Oh, he's 4.

Hope this helps. It's not easy being a mum. God will continue to help us all.

agiboma:
Glad to hear it. We are doing very well Im busy with my phd program right now and have the kids enrolled in various activities. My daughter turned 2 in March i just put her in ballet she looks so sweet dancing. My son is turning 5 in July and he does soccer and karate so finding time these days to get on here to chat with you wonderful ladies is difficult, but your all always in my thoughts. Lets keep supporting each other and sharing our experience(s).

Big hugs dear, it's not easy being a good mother. You are doing a great job, thumbs up.

mytestimony:
Thanks. Quite helpful

You are welcome dear. God will reward all our labours of love on them. Amen

mytestimony:
Experienced mothers and new mothers wey senior us oh please help me. I am in a state of confusion. My princess now cries alot. She started 3 days ago. Today she is 3 months. What could be wrong. Before she would sleep na war
She would cry and cry and u have to dance and dance before she would sleep. Before she would agree to sleep off in the rocker. Not anymore. She has cattarh also. D worse Is when I bring breast to her when she is sleepy. She wld scream.
Pls help me I am confused. What could be wrong with her

Based on my experience with my daughter, she may be about achieving a milestone, maybe she's about achieving neck control or something else.

My daughter experienced dramas for each change,when her neck wanted to firm up she started vomiting after each feed, her ability to seat brought fever, to crawl nko? One would have to carry her and stand before she'd sleep off. Initially, I was worried because my son didn't have any of that, but when I noticed the trend; I didn't bother myself so much anymore.

Greetings to you mums in the house, I have a 7 month old baby and she wouldn't take any type of milk except friso cereal or pap and breast milk. I leant that milk is really essential for her at this age and I do not think my breast milk is enough for her now. I tried force feeding but she will throw up immediately after. Please mums, how do I get her to drink milk. Thanks. First time mum.

Have you tried incorporating the milk into all her meals ie the cereal and pap?

joyousf:
