Kinado:
are u April? Since I’m early may I’m think it’s just going to happen esp with the result of my scan yesterday!
Mamas I heard ewedu intake can reduce weight of baby how true?

No, I'm June, but my due date is late June so porting is highly unlikely for me. I've not heard of ewedu reducing weight, I've heard it helps with quicl delivery tho.

meariam:
Don't think so oo

Hmm, from what I heard, you blend it and drink it when you start to feel the contraction setting in.

Omakraid:
My fellow May 2022 mamas, how have you all been and how are our not so little ones doing?

Sending love from here mamas

We thank God for His faithfulness. How are you doing mama? Counting down to 4th birthday in a bit!

For anyone who needs videos on breastfeeding and proper baby latching to avoid pain, these videos are really good.

Signing in officially to Team December 2026. God will make it easy for us all.

I know this place is not as bubbly as those years but I can’t resist coming here. Let’s see how it goes

Hello beautiful Mummies,

My first born will be 6years tomorrow so, I have forgotten most of the things. I have given out all my first born baby items.

Please, can someone help me with a list of items needed for new born babies and what weeks should pregnancy be before purchasing.

I’m preparing and would really appreciate guidance.

Also, for those who bought the items in Lagos recently, how much did you spend for new born babies items?

Hello mama, you may want to wait for 2nd trimester before you buy baby things. This is because you have enough strength this period and you are causing too much stress to your newly changing body.
- Also by then you are sure of the gender so you can streamline the buying to soothe baby gender especially in colors ( except you don’t mind )

About the list, The basic ones will be given to you to guide you in the hospital when you start antenatal. While buying, you will see other important ones there ( I trust those sellers 😀) Remember they will give you useful and some worth useless items 🤐However I know we can dig up a list from this thread that was useful back then. I will quote and tag you when I see it.

It depends but I think from 14 weeks. Some may get it slightly earlier than than that.
