U always come to vent about how u dont sleep, how body de pain u, how ur bump starts growing. How people are now staring.
U start shopping and asking ur nairaland family to help so this terrible baby shops who take advantage of FTMs don't cheat u. U cant wait to pop out d LO. U start panicking cos the day is approaching. D day finally comes and God performs his miracle. U c ur bundle of joy. Vigilante starts. Oh my the vigilante. Then you start to complain abt how u dont sleep. Meanwhile u move to the newborn thread. You start gaining experience. Motherhood is sweet. You keep peeping the pregnancy thread. Sometimes u comment somrtines u just read smile and pass. Just few months and you feel like going thru all that again. Oh life!

temmy2103:
And who told you it's a crime/sin to do that?

the UN nd WHO even encourages it. Once it is done right there is no problem.

MiracleMum:
Then no tell me say na half achievement. Thats not encouraging but its alright. i dey wait for you for front. lol

Ha ha ha ha ha I just de laf for here so te ppl de ask me wetin?
Are u a ftm? Cos na FTMs like us suppose... lmao. How baby jare

MiracleMum:
Congratulations then! I am not surprised your baby is doing that. All babies are different and none should be compared.

I no compare. As u ur own de sweet u say she de sit na so my own de sweet me. Case closed. Today is monday.

Kimoni:
Mytestimony, I am not sure how to communicate this to you but if possible, stop comparing notes. It can put you under pressure or make you start having unnecessary fears that something is wrong with ur baby when actually, she is doing just fine. But if you must compare, let it just put you in the know of what your baby might start doing very soon. By the time all these our babies get to 3 years or thereabout, they will all be at par and no one will remember who pooed first or who weeweed last.

All babies are different and achieve their milestones at different times.

I am not comparing. For what will I compare? . If u notice I only asked a question. Is asking a question now comparison? miracle mum said

MiracleMum:
Vex ke? No worry your lo go soon sit down like that. For more

make we dey enjoy am. Lol

Nd I replied her o. As we turn d tin to play mk e remain so. Case closed. Today is monday. Lol

.

MiracleMum:
Vex ke? No worry your lo go soon sit down like that. For more make we dey enjoy am. Lol

Lol my baby started trying to sit since she was a lil over 2 months.She sits the way u described it. Infact if I put her in sleeping position in her rocker she sits up on her own.

Modath yipee congratulations. Am so happy. Well come.to the world prince
K4kenny congrats.

MiracleMum:
Please read my first paragraph again. She sits for some minutes without her hands on the floor while playing with a toy. Babies that achieved "fully" according to you, don't just wake up and find themselves propped up - it starts from somewhere.

Madam no vex oh no b quarrel. I no argue. Na question I ask. Nd u answered nd I said I thought... no vex abeg

Hernyolar:
Her fisher price rocker(3months to toddler), pram (stroller) helped a lot...then I sit her in between my laps though a baby will start sitting at the time nature considers appropriate and easy.

My baby didn't have full neck control until about three months and I was getting scared cos she had jaundice at birth,twas so serious that she had an ebt....you need to see hw happy hubby was when she started sitting..

Also remember babies develop at their time...my baby cousin crawled for about 3wks before she started walking at 8months plus but couldn't talk until she was almost two but she recognise everyone's phones, shoes and other personal items...

Infact thanks for explaining. Now i understand what u meant.

MiracleMum:
Don't move away oh, as baby still topples now while sitting. My baby can sit with her hands propped out for 20 - 25 mins before toppling over. And once she topples I know she's tired because in between the 20 - 25 mins she uses her hand to stop her from toppling.

I put her on a play mat with pillows round and then sing and dance while she watches with smiles. If I don't do that, she won't sit. Sometimes I dangle a flashy toy in her face and she'll release her hands to go for the toys, while she's with the toy she can sit unsupported for some minutes before returning one hand on the floor for balance.
She didn't just achieve it like that. It took lots of tummy time, sitting her on my laps, in between my laps and on a stroller when we go out.

Note that all babies are different, they achieve their milestones at different times. I was worried some times ago here that my baby was yet to have neck control like her mates, I felt really bad when I saw her mate at her creche already sitting and rolling over while my baby's neck was still wobbly. But mothers here encouraged me and advised I give her lots of tummy time.
Her caregivers at the creche also encouraged and told me to relax as they will work on it ( God bless those women). They did work on it as I was not only seen it in the log book, I was noticing a great change as the day go by.

Thanks for the explanation so she has not acheived the milestone fully. I fear na. I fear no b small o.lol

temmy2103:
When u sit, put her between ur legs(wide open).
Put her to sit on the bed or floor, spread her legs to form v-shape and use pillows to support her round

My baby sits o. She started sitting that way sef earlier. Its d sitting unsupported I want to understand

Please mothers whose babies started sitting unsupported at 4 months how una do am? So u can put dem to sit nd move away? Please explain I dont understand. @Henyolar nd miraclemun

lamdec:
Hello all mamas in the house, how is our LOs doing. Please I noticed for the past two or three days that my son started grunting and squirming when he sleeps. Sometimes he wakes up and I have to pacify him to sleep again. I don't know if it's too much gas, and I have no idea what drug to use, some say gripe water, I heard it's not advisable to give babies gripe water. He is 25days old and he poos and burps.well, he is both breastfeeding and formula feed. I don't know what to do, is there any thing I can give him to reduce his grunting.

If it is gas, Patience please. After 3 months its over. In my case I used infacol a few times but to b honest it didn't work. Ur baby will outgrow it. When bathing baby use hot compress on tummy esp at night. Not too hot fa tor

shndy:
Whenever my boy giggles, not that gummy grin o, real giggling, he ends up having a hiccup. Has any mom noticed this, shd I be worried?

Yes yes yes I noticed it with my princess. Infact I hv recordings of her giggling like an adult. After that na hiccup. I just breastfeed her when she hiccups

lovinam:
Chai! See beta love o. Na so u take de miss me? I loff u back juo. Me ask you question? When? How? Where? Who? What? Lol.

Ewoo! Ha ha ha ah aha ha ha. No vec na tchwinie I bn wan talk. I de confuse both of una. Well maybe I miss u plenty das why

HARMYMY:
Thanks to everyone . After all prayer and doctor help to survive my Prince, my Prince said goodbye to the world on Thursday. After CS God said His not my baby. Wish all the pushing mama supernatural delivery.

May God console u nd ur family

bossladymo1:
4a. Exclusively breastfed babies can be started on water when they are introduced to cereals usually we say 6 months tho 4 -6 months is acceptable in some instances......once they are no longer on breastmilk only, water can be added.
(Gbemisola Boyede, Developmental Paed)

1-2oz per day is just okay

Mytestimony

Thanks bossladymo I was only responding to what lovinam asked me

tchiwinnie:
Who gv u this kyn info?
If d child is nt exclusively breastfed, of course, he can tk water b4 6months.

Tor senior lovinam I was wondering cos de keep saying do not give a baby under six months water. De did nt specify

modath:
I screeeeammmm amin with swag for not porting to august!! But I'm not a contraction person, its contraindicated, I'm on shedule in a few days time... Kpekus postponed.

I cast and bind any moving from team july to yeam August for proudmum and modath ooooooooooo. May the spirit of kpekus envelope u ppl so dat contraction go start sharperly.

beedam:

Ok so water should not be given to a baby less than 6 months. How do mothers giving cereals below 6 months manage? Please I need answers
