Hello all mamas in the house, how are we doing. I know we have all gone through child birth experiences so I know we can relate to what I am to say.
Since I had my baby, I have been feeling some how, I don't know if it's depressed or irritating and my challenge is this. I was naked a lot during my child birth process and a lot of people inserted their hands inside me in the name of checking my cervix. I cringe any time I remember this even as I am typing I am barely holding it together, it's not been easy for me.
After some days I had my baby, I had to go back to the hospital cos I was bleeding profusely, by the way I had a c-section, so I had another dose of being touched and different things been inserted down there to help remove blood clots.
The thing now is I haven't been over this incidences, I feel highly uncomfortable in my own skin, I can't stand being naked, I can't stand not wearing pants, I feel so vulnerable.
As much as I understand that all they did was to safe my life, I just don't get how I feel, I haven't even been able to talk to my husband about it.

Good morning mothers, pls my 2 months plus old baby sweats alot so much that i have to change her clothes like twice before day break and i stopped using the fan cos she wakes up with congested nose. Is there something else i can do to keep her cool? P.S she sleeps in the lightest onesies. Thanks

Shawbabe:

Lmao. U people won't kill me with laugh. No I have NEVER backed my baby. I don't even know how to tie wrapper, let alone tying one to back a baby. So I definitely know it's not from backing.

I don't live in Lagos to be going to GH? I reside in Abuja, my pediatrician saw it b4 I returned to naija with the baby and he said it was nothing to worry about. I'm not worried about it to be honest coz it's not painful or bleeding. And I have monitored it for months, nothing has changed. I just felt that someone here had experienced it on their baby? That's why I asked. I will see anothwr pediatrician in Abuja just to be sure. Thanks mums.

MiracleMum:


No ma'am. As part of the Polio eradication endgame, the WHO is trying to phase out the Oral Polio and replace it with the Inactivated IPV which is what will be used after polio eradication. IPV is now available in Nigeria as part of the Polio endgame plan.
They are trying to phase out OPV and replace with IPV for the post polio free Nigeria era.
Its ok to get the IPV even after taking the OPV

MiracleMum:


My sister uses makari for her kids and the first daughter is still very dark. The difference between her and a random dark girl is the glow, her black shines - makes her skin radiate even though it's dark. I use same for my daughter and she's not oyinbo, but looking at her skin gives the impression of ajebutter.
Makari baby products is good for those that can afford it.

Shawbabe:
Pls who can help me with this? It's on the back of my baby's head, what is it and what can I use to treat it? It itches as well. I have applied Shea butter and baby oil on it. Nothing. It's been there since my baby was 2 months. My baby is 5 months plus now.

MiracleMum:


yes, its IPV (an injection).

MGeey:
Thanks beryl15. I went for immunisation today and when I showed the nurse she said I should put tido. I will go see a paed. Though

Please I sent a request to "ask the paediatrician" on facebook and I'm yet to be accepted. I have a preaaing question and anxiety no free me wait. I've been diagnosed of candida albican and I'm exclusively breastfeeding. I want to find out if its okay for me to swallow tabs for it (will it affect my baby?) though I have inserted canesten pessary. I'm afraid it can pass through BM. Thanks

imurboss:

Pele iya ibeji, it is well wit him. But pneumonia is not caused by cold. It is an infection caused by viruses n bacteria. Dis topic was actually discussed on d 'ask d peadiatrician' group. Just dress d children appropriately 4 d weather, don't ova do it.

GoodKay:
Hello great mothers.. my 14 month old has had this cough for 2 months now and it disturbs at night. He wakes up from sleep coughing and vomits thereafter. I've used several antibiotics which reduces it but it increases again some days after I stop d antibiotics. I boil he's drinking water and he takes jus cerelac, iindome, some swallow, Caprisonne but not always so I don't think it has to do with what he's eating. I've given him so many bottles of cough syrups which never works until d doc said I shud stop it. What native or herbal can I use 4 him as am tired of antibiotics it's becoming too much for he's tender body. Pls I need help on any known native or herbal combinations that work and is not harmful to him. I've also been treating a very stubborn malaria every month now that even quinine cannot stop. God help mothers. It is well. Pls I need ur response. Thanks in advance.

Nita2013:
Lol. It's even in naija they keep saying bath with hot water, press with hot water, drink hot tea and all sorts.

In d US once u av ur baby until u r discharge, it's water with lots off ice blocks they ll give u to drink tru out. So I keep wondering what d myth about d hot stuff came about.

Also they advice sitz bath as well

corrall:


Please I would like to know how best to store the expressed milk. For example, let's say I expressed 90 ml, n she drinks only 60 ml, can the remaining be stored again in the fridge or thrown away. also when is best to express, at work? Or after work. sorry for the long post, I work very far from where I live so I can't shuttle it in between during the day. So whatever I express will be used then formula will take over till I return.

Please I need advice on how best to go about it. Thanks.
