Shea butter didn't do good on my son's skin. It gave him a rash. But it works for many people.

Yes, it was original.

My mum says baby boys experience d navel pains more as my 2 boys gave me sleepless nights cos of it. burp immediately after feedin as gas makes it worse.d local way I did ws to grind two tablets of kafura wt abt 7 uda(dnt knw d eng name,ask yoruba women sellin baby things)nd tie in a neat handkerchief nd place on a lantern dnt let it be too hot o,place on d navel ,do it like 6 times a day nd rub baby mentholatum or ori around d navel.do ds anytim he feels uncomfortable.
Anoda tin is d cleanin,my pead says clean wt spirit until d place closes up,he even says I shld let d spirit drop ther to kill d germs.
3rdly while bathin him use warm water wt handkerchief 2 press d navel well nd let som water drop as if its tap on d navel hole to clean it.
Try all these nd let's see ao it improves

on baby feeding.... babies can eat whatever you put into their mouth in as much as they like it, but what should matter to us parents is "is it healthy for them? on that note cow milk e.g peak milk for adult is a No No for babies under one year old. One of the effects is iron deficiency.

Peak 123 is toddler milk from one year old.

@heinzs for 4m+
i started cereals when my baby was 5m+ until he clocked 6ms. i think about N700 at shoprite Victoria Island. Mennh is too small for that price o, it doesnt last more than 2 days.
