Mumaraoluwa:
Hello good evening momma's.happy mother's day. Please I want to ask if it's normal for my 1 year 8 months baby to be handling with his penis. Even when we beat and beat him, he doesn't stop. Sometimes he hides to do this

Rather than beating him, maybe you can talk to him about it and try to convince him that it is a bad habit. It may seem weird to talk to a baby that small but I feel that they will understand. Do this consistently with him and be patient too, with time he will stop.

BligsMiss:
Updated!

I gave birth to a baby girl via Viginal Delivery.

I was not induced or giving anything, the contraction keep coming and going until i went to labor for 4hrs and she came.

I dont have any infection so far. All test Came out Negative

She's presently at the NICU. I wish i can just close my eyes and open it for all these times to pass away!

I dont even knw what to type, All i need is your prayers. Please there's no one here with us, Except me and my husband alone. I'm depressed and in pain and anxiety. I dont knw why she came early, Allahu Alla'm!

Please PRAY FOR ME And AMAL

Congratulations on the birth of your little one. The God that brought her safely will see her through the time at NICU and you both will go home safe and sound. Try to be positive dear. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God is also with you therefore you are never alone. Anytime you feel lonely or depressed, just think of all the mamas here (with our big belles of different sizes and shapes) who are with you in thoughts and prayers - make sure you smile . Your baby will come out strong and victorious in Jesus name amen.

@your signature ... did you write that deliberately or in error

mimyselfai:
A big welcome. Meanwhile, we went to Randle Hospital to register for AN today and we were told they're not accepting registration. On further enquire, someone confided in us that it has to do with the freemium delivery package by LASG and that I we know anyone there they will accept us. Now I'm wondering, if they don't accept us now what will happen when it's time to deliver? Naija we hail thee o. Well, if there's anyone who works there or knows anyone that can help please we need referrals o.
Thanks.

It is well. Is Randle hospital a government hospital? Maybe you can look for a private hospital around in the meantime. Also continue to take your daily folic acid and other vitamins. It will all end in praise

khaite23:

Shout out to all my fellow teamies. Some of us will probably have started feeling baby movements by now. I can wait to go for my second scan to see my baby moving and healthy

@Patking, accept my condolence. May God grant you fortitude to bear the loss and double for your trouble. May affliction never arise again in Jesus name amen.

Team September for supernatural delivery

forzarush:
Pele, that's what my almost popping Belle craves. You can cook yours that way. Thanks

Please ignore any negative comment about that beans. It looks good just the way it is.

Allshadesfemale:
Although I got the coconut in the first place to extract the oil (home made coconut oil) for my hair and skin. Which I also did

Can you detail your procedure for making this coconut oil? Mine always comes out coloured and not transparent as this. Thanks is advance

Adesquare2:
Good morning mamas, please my milk just started flowing last night since I gave birth on Tuesday and since then I have just been able to express 30ml. I want to do exclusive breastfeeding and I have tried everything to achieve it. Been taking lactation cookies, lactation yoghurt, fenugreek tea, pap and even done hot breast massage even before I gave birth but for where? I have put baby to breast but its still not flowing well. Please help me suggest things I can take again. Already introduced formula but just want go back to my exclusive breastfeeding. Im really concerned. Please give me suggestions that have worked for you all o. E joor mas.

Worry can cause you not to lactate well so try not to be bothered about the flow. Relax and continue taking your liquids. Always put you baby to breast as much as you can cos the more the baby sucks, the more breastmilk your body receives signal to produce with adequate rest. Sooner or later your milk will flow well. Also, if you cannot keep up, continue mixing with formula. It doesn't make you any less of a good mummy. E hugs

Sleekyshuga:
It is Preformed Vitamin A that is found in most animal products (eggs, milk, liver etc). Eating foods like these once or twice a month wouldn’t hurt as the thing about eating in pregnancy is “moderation.”

Also, aside liver, there are other meat options that can easily be substituted.

BTW, liver was recommended for me around my Week 35 as I noticed my PCV dropped from 42% to 37%. It wasn’t and still isn’t one of my choices.

N/B: Most defects in developing babies usually happens around the first months of pregnancy, say first trimester.

That's okay by me. I am only stating what I read so mamas who have it in mind should know to take it in moderation as you have now noted. One love.

Sleekyshuga:
- Do more of green vegetables (ugwu leaf, Spinach, Broccoli etc).

- Beans

- Beef and organ meat (Liver & Kidney)

- Fish & Poultry

- Iron fortified nuts (Cashews, Almonds etc)

- Eggs, etc.

Please I read somewhere that liver is not recommended in pregnancy as it contains a high amounts of a particular vitamin A that can cause defects in baby.

Cboss:
Good evening mamas please I need you all advice...
I have been battling with infection especially itching. I went to my hospital, after running some texts they said they didn't find anything but gave me cream to apply. The problem is the itching keeps coming back every other week and I can't keep using the cream...I need a permanent solution.

Thank you all for your reply

I think you should still go back to the hospital. They will know how to proceed. I experienced this last year.

Thank you Prestonn. I will try this someday.

If you all had used these monies you are donating to develop the health sector we would have been better for it today. Even with all the audio donations, I still can't see the effect on testing and control of this corona virus on the public.

Crownofwealth:
First time to comment. Have been reading and following up each chat here. I will really say I appreciate you guys on this platform for your decision to share ideas. No doubt I learnt alot about women and the stress they go through just to make the home more happier. Really waited for a long time to share my wife BS with you guys but it couldn't come to pass as my wife underwent an emergency cs and a myomectomy today. it wasn't really easy but in all we thank God for the life of my wife even though we lost our baby. God knows best. wishing all pregnant mum's a safe delivery in Jesus name. Amen

So sorry for your loss sir. May God replenish all that is lost and heal every hurt in Jesus name amen. Stay strong bro

jumy16:
its illegal, they can get them arrested

The life of the baby is more important right now. Please let them take her to the hospital

I can't ever miss an opportunity to celebrate my mother and all mothers as a matter of fact. The video encapsulates the feelings I have for my mother and all mothers. I never think about her without a smile and all the love bursting in my heart. She motivates me to do better always and to make the right choices in life. She sees me through all life's struggles and challenges and is also there to celebrate me during my wins. She is the one person I trust with my life and know that no matter what choices she makes, she would put me first. I would do all these and more for her in return because her love is the purest form of love I ever felt in life. I love you sweet sweet mother. God bless you for all that you do. Not forgetting my mother in law, thank you for raising a good man and for your sacrifices of love for us. Happy mothers day to us all.

Tessie89:
Good day Mama's,
Pls how can one take care of the breast after weaning, it's just a day after and it's swollen and painful. Help a first time mum, also needs what can sooth baby to sleep fast.

Sorry about your pains mama. Most times when you stop cold turkey style, the pain is very much. Some mamas recommend putting a leaf of cabbage in the fridge and placing it inside your bra. You can try this. Either ways the pain should be much reduced within a week.

lovecherish:
I delivered my bouncing baby boy on the 29th of February 2020, mother, father and baby are doing fine

congratulations mama

As regards the issue of children taking up the affection of the wife in a home, I think that grooming children along with other house chores are a lot of work and effort and most times this is left to the wife alone. After all is said and done, the wife is tired and hardly gets the time to rest talk less of having quality time for her spouse. Most men misconstrue the whole thing as transfer of affection which really isn't. If you want the best of your wife and family, be a partner in all areas and watch your entire family bloom. Most happy couples I see and hear have understanding and are mindful of each other's needs in the home. They have fair stakes in all areas of the home.

With Joy in my heart and gratitude to the most High who has made me to experience motherhood when I least expected I announced the arrival of my princess via ELCS on 19th of Feb at 37 weeks weighing 2.9kg.
Pls I've not been able to lactate and I'm worried about it because I don't want her to stay long on formula feeding

Congratulations on the birth of your princess. On lactating, try not to worry because worrying in itself can cause you not to lactate. Just relax, eat and drink a lot of water, put your baby to breast always and trust your body to do what it is made to do. E hugs

beyedew:
Thanks to all mamas that wished me well. My fellow teamies God has settled us already.
God has made it easy for all preggers in this forum.
The joy in my heart is immeasurable. I haven't slept since I gave birth to her and sleep is even far from me. God help me .

Congratulations beyedew. God is indeed too faithful to fail. She will live long and prosper to fulfill destiny in Jesus name amen.

This looks so yummy...Pardon my naivety but what are you dipping into the mustard sauce exactly.

cococandy:
Honey-mustard oven roasted chicken and vegetables. Served with honey-mustard dipping sauce. There were no leftovers

Thank you again Prestonn. You are simply amazing

Prestonn:
You're welcome

Buttermilk is a slightly sour milk. The sourness of buttermilk comes from acids in the milk, most notably, lactic acids. Buttermilk is use for cooking, baking and marination.

You can get it in any grocery store.... Shoprite have it

But I usually make mine at home, all you need is Lime and milk or vinegar

Homemade buttermilk

Ingredients
Milk
Fresh lemon juice or white vinegar

Instructions
Add the milk and lemon juice together in a bowl or French Press and stir.
Allow the milk to rest for at least 5 minutes but no longer than 10 minutes.
When the milk is slightly curdled, the buttermilk is ready to use

Thank so much for the recipe Prestonn . Please what is buttermilk and where can I get it to buy.
