Sister!
I am SO SORRY, I didnt just see this but I was going to reply when something else came up around me and I forgot until I suddenly remembered you and went to dig this out.
Please dont be annoyed. I never meant to ignore.
You know say you be my former teamie o! Oya smile kiss kiss

It might be the epidural esp if you haven't been maintaining good posture.
Lift your son less, at least he can crawl now, let him come to you and you bend like you would when pregnant; with your knees instead of back.
Also put him behind you, i.e back with wrapper instead of carrying over a long distance since he is chubby. It will save your shoulders nd back from pains and aches.
Pele.

thanx love......I wasn't angry....knew it must have been an oversight for u.... the pains is from epidural.... I will adhere to ur advice.....infact I decided to ignore it and take panadol once in a while when it is unbearable. seem like my ignorance method has worked.I consider it as a sacrifice for the sake of my lil prince....once again...thanx and God bless......#kisssss#

Thanks so much for this, I just showed him this your reply now, and he is speechless... I don't want to birth in a maternity I told him so, I prefer BMH, is a big hospital and they have facilities there.

..sorry oooo I may sound blunt but the truth has to be told....quote me anywhere.I am not a fan of maternity home and WILL NEVER BE....in this age of awaerness, and technology why on earth will maternity home be an option.pls pls pls I beg u in the name of God locate BMH....I don't know much about the hospital but from reference made here it is OK.I had my son in teaching hospital in uyo,I was d one that opted for induction,my induction failed,I dilated 10cm,yet my baby's head could not even engage.after being in labour a whole day,I was rushed for emergency cs meanwhile I and baby had become weak.what if it was at a maternity,both of us would have been gone.a friend had her baby through emergency cs too,hers was DAT cord was round d baby' s neck.
pls learn from birth stories here. pple don't take time to write it for fancy.whether its your first or 50th pregnancy pls give birth in d hospital...a word is enough for d wise....#kisssss#

Fever and back ache.
Okay.....my own opinion o,
- never ignore fever. And the pain is it a soreness? It might be an indication of infection.
- back ache is common in mama's that delivered via CS esp with epidural. It occurs along the spine.
- it might just be malaria.
- you need to rest and take care of your self like you still have your baby. Your body needs a long time to heal, longer than regular cos the babies help us to heal faster.
- it could still be lochia. I re-saw lochia 6 weeks postpartum.

@madam zayine....good morning...biko touch light my own matter as to back pain after cs...I am 9months post position this week.I still feel d pain on my spine especially when I carry my son who is on d chubby side for long.d consultant Anaesthetist told me DAT I should always use any pain killer that works for me and take my mind off it.paracetamol or panadol works for me.I only take it wen d pains stays more than a day which is not always.....now my question is how long will d effect of this epidural remain cuz I was thinking that by now it should have been over....biko oooo come to my aid....thanx....

thanx everyone for taking out time to respond.first I asked my doc during six weeks post natal and he said 2017 is OK for me to have another baby if I want to.I am a cs mum and I want to remain a cs mum.after wat my eyes saw during labour,I opt to remain a cs mum.besides from all indication I seem to have small pelvic making vaginal birth a no for me.
I and hubby are ready for baby number two.my first pregnancy was a work over.I felt normal from first day till delivery.I even passed edd,doc told me to opt for elective cs cuz of big baby.scan told me baby was 4kg.I refused and asked for induction.indeed induction failed after I had dialated 10cm but baby's head was still very high without decent,I poked 5 good responsible times,I and baby became weak.in fact pitocin drip had no effect again on me cuz at some point contractions were no longer felt.my induction started on Tuesday evening by 5pm,d process lingered till I was rushed for an emergency cs by 10.30pm.baby came out by 10.41pm.so I told myself all subsequent birth I am choosing cs.
my most lil selfish reason is DAT I love babies...and want a second one to kill loneliness and quietness in my house.not just I but hubby is in support too.we plan to space 3yrs after d second baby comes.#covers face.. #we are looking at august to starting trying to concieve,.by then my son will be 10months old..

sorry for my long story....

Chinco is fine oh, but brezzz milk haff refused to come out from the brezzz...

#SadSigh[/quote

enkay u have always kept me going in this thread.I love ur positive spirit.I did exclusive without water for six months.here is what I did,I made sure I scrub my nipples before delivery every day to open d pores and with that,I started lactating before delivery then I had to stop.after delivery,I did same and breastmilk started flowing.yes pap,tea,palmwine works but for me,ordinary water worked reason being that I have never taken palm wine so it was not an option for me,tea I drink once in a blue moon then pap last Tim I took it in 3yrs was after delivery cuz I had cs and it was custard with glocuose DAT I took.
my mum a retired midwife told me,u have to drink water like medicine DAT its liquid DAT makes breast flow.the point here is that it's only water DAT is d liquid u will be able to take in large quantity.I use to drink one bag of pure water a day.I had more than enough breast milk so DAT wen LO is sucking right breast,left breast is licking and soaking me up......sorry for my long story....I dey try measure up with u.though u pass me....kikikikkikiki in ur voice...

I Am using cussons baby wash. I don't rub lotion. I was using d oil. But I stop when the rashes was increasing. The rashes started in the clinic.immediately after birth. Noticed it the 3rd day before we were discharged. Showed the dr. She said its normal in children. It will go on its own. I shouldn't use anytin. It is 2 weeks now. The rashes have changed from white to red now. And dy are almost all over her now. M getting so scared. Our next visit is 4 weeks time to d dr. Pls which soap did u start using. And were can I buy d rising powder. I checked d baby stalls near us. Dy didn't have.

ThAnk you so much for ur response.


beautiful mamas I can understand ur worries, it could be rasges or allegry, change their soap and cream to another product.i use boots soap and coconut oil.my son had same issue wen I was using johnson soap and cream but he is ok now.here is another recipe dat works wonder for my son.after using coconut oil on him, I use agnesia powder all over his body but I rub and make sure it blends with his skin after morning bath, same with afternoon bath though no cream at noon and evening too only powder.i allow lil water to remain on his body before rubbing d powder.i wear him light clothes cuz he sweats for Nigeria . It's my mum dat brought this theory and it works wonders.......I use dettol to bath him and also iron all his clothings including bibs and face towels, body towels, wraps and wash clothes.....no be small work ooooo...datz how I was able to send rashes abi allegry packing.....now my bobo skin dey smoth like bottle.......sorry for d long sermon ...wish u luck

How many layers of clothes does he wear at any given time? That may be the cause if he's thickly dressed. Sweating is normal in this heat period that we are undergoing. I don't think its an issue for now. You can try to Bathe him with lukewarm water as opposed to hot water.



most day I only wear him short cuz of d way he sweats with sleeveless top.i bath him at least 3 times a day and still have to use wet wash cloth to clean him at every interval.the sweating is worst now that he is try to crawl.he is more than active these day thereby making me bath him often.....cuz of the sweat, he has lil heat rashes on his body.i think his hyperactive nature is a contributory factor as well.

MiracleMum:


Please while buying baby food in cartons, it's of utmost importance to be mindful of expiry date. Also, a baby can get tired very often with a particular food. My solution to that was; since i can afford a carton of cereal at once, why not i spread that money into varieties of cereals then after each trial (3 days maximum) with a successful acceptance and tolerance - then i add that to my dd list of food. Thereafter, i schedule her meals to creche e.g Monday: Vanilla custard, frisogold rice and cerelac 3 cereals. Tues: Strawberry custard, Gerber rice and nutriben 8 cereals and 4 fruits. Wed: Banana custard, Gerber oatmeal, cerelac rice and Gerber yogurt. And it continues like this, my baby doesnt eat same food in 3 days. Please note that before i started this, i had a very serious challenge with her feeding - i used to force her to take just 2 scoops of cereal and she'd refuse. Infact, meal time in the house was messy. But, immediately i introduced this method - which a dear boss in my office gave me - things changed. Now, she can take as much as 8-10 scoops of cereal with no stress.


thanks so much this is so educative....to all d mums that gave ideas..,thanx God bless u alll
