ThatPetiteChic:
Lemme give you online hug and kisses...If it's akara and pap that your tongue is selecting, pls eat it. I don't see anything wrong in it but I preach moderation. Take it in moderation. I was taking malt (1 bottle) everyday especially when the MS was too much but I had to reduce when I counted the empty bottles in my house. For now, I have reduced it to once in 2/3 days. Lastly, if you have an underlying health condition, it's best you speak with your doctor before taking akara and malt.

BTW: No, it's not too early to take pregnant care. Is pregnant care of different types? Someone should pls enlighten me...

yes there are different types but I stopped pregnacare cos of the cost I used nature’s field mostly or any other affordable one

I used size 2 diapers for 3 months. They were gifts given to us. We switched to size 3 after the size 2 diapers were exhausted.
Huggies is good for me. It's better than molfix for me. Not the Nigerian Huggies o. The one in yellow carton. The molfix was always leaking.

what kind of molfix?. I’ve used 3 packs and they never leaked.

busybeei5:
Good morning team MAY mamas and other sabi mamas.
Please when do babies outgrow size 2 diapers, and also molfix or huggies which one good pass

I only bought one pampers mostly for hospital o and cos I’m not sure the size he will wear in case of big baby most of the pampers I have now were gifts at naming

lwkmd it’s to confirm fundal height and calculate if baby is growing per the weeks

tyreal:
Mamas, please my child is having colic. Is there anything I can do to help him? He hasn't been able to poop since I started breastfeeding him. I fed him food formula for 3 dsys before I started lactating.

it’s normal for babies not to poop regularly o my son poos once or twice a week keep feeding him breast milk he will pop for the colic get him gripe water I used it for my son within 2 weeks colic disappeared and I wasn’t even religious with it

indian03:
Not so pls. My neighbour was induced for like 4 days for her first child before she finally gave birth. She fell into labour easily for the second child cos by time I took her to hospital she was already 8cm gone. Once induced doesn't mean always induction

oh wow

Tinudesi:
Same here it seems it's all babies o.Its just a waste of money,my baby loves sleeping beside me on the bed o but we are still doing vigilante

mosquito is my fear

africaflozy:
Mama dunpredictable how are you and what's up with your swollen feet?

Tinudesi and oke and other mamas, how's vigilante doing you?

my baby doesn’t want to sleep in his bassinet he sleeps better on the bed: in fact we don’t do vigilante when he does that

Howyeh:

U dinor know anything.
There are cravings and there are cravings o, I read about one woman who craves to smell 'farts', another craves to flush toilet (by hand, with bucket I mean) anytime anyone defecates in her household.
So, if u shit & flush by yourself, its a trouble with a capital T from her.

so gross

Haryanphe:
BA! BA!! BA!!!

To the glory of God and the defeat of the devil, I welcomed my princess on the 5th April, 2021 at 41 weeks 4days. It's the best birthday gift ever. She weighed 3.5kg

you ported to April! Aww Glory to God

oluwaleokey:
Thank you mama for your input
I guess I will patiently wait till 41 then I can opt for induction
I have been eating n swallowing pineapples like mad, please what other labour triggering fruits or food should I add?

The doc obviously want cash, kept threatening the baby is growing by the day, that we should go home n prepare for CS incase... I expected atleast a membrane swap but no way

sorry o but you may most likely not fall into labor , due to your history he’s supposed to do a VE for you you may be 2cm dilated like I was

oluwaleokey:
Sabi Mamas, trust we are cool
Long story, scan gave my edd as 5th April while FMC gave 6th
Today 6th we are actually 40 weeks and a day gone.
A private doctor has been preaching inducement and preferably elective CS,
Baby weighs about 3.8
STM, although my first baby was induced n delivered normal.

Thinking its way too early, how much more do you think I can still hold on before opting for inducement? Is it bad waiting till we clock 41weeks? Heard at this point, baby grows by the day, how true?

I am restless
I need una candid advice....help a mama biko

I learnt if you induce for your first child all others will be via induction

mydreams25:
Sorry for your strong craving.
Me I crave concrete o and I lick it most times , I get fine concrete ( mixture of cement, sand and water) and lick it and the craving will reduce. The feeling and satisfaction is heavenly. I just make sure I lick small quantity unless I won't get myself, I had the same craving during my second pregnancy too but was higher than this present one.

lick concrete ke

Blackfinegirl:
