If she is a new mum/has no help, it may be the stress of dealing with a baby and everyday chores. she should reduce salt intake, take lots of fresh fruits and vegetable, take long walks/simple exercise and more daytime naps. She should try to see a medical professional.
Thanks a lot sister

You probably didn't allow him empty a b.reast before switching to another hence he's getting only fore milk while he needs the hind milk more. Try starting any new feeding from the b.reast he took last before switching to the second.

Much better. Thank you.
My mother inlaw came and she did her thing, and few hours later, my wife came out excited with a poo filled short and started calling anyone who cared to pick her call that her child has finally poo poked.
smh. I was set to take the child to hospital last Friday, cos it was beginning to disturb us.

Hello house, I was told at the hospital about some new vaccines for new babies : Rotavirus and PCV1. These are supposed to be adminstered around 6 weeks after delivery or so and very expensive- about N13K each.
Pls how necessary are these and why so costly?

It is very important oo, it's expensive because it's nt yet fully incorporated into the govt Immunization plan.. most of this children come down wit respiratory tract infection like 5 or more times per year and our environment wit lots of air pollution don't help much either. Pls endeavour to get it for the child.
