If you use soap on his face, please stop it for now and watch, just use only water and don't rub anything on hos face at all. This appears on my baby's face anytime soap or even foam touches his face while bathing.

what type of soap caused that reaction? Was or all soaps? It may be a common ingredient in a of them and he may have sensitive skin.

Hello mommas, M a FTM. My Bambino is 3weeks plus and I am exclusively breastfeeding her, but she sleeps off 5 minutes into breastfeeding but still suckles on the breast whilst sleeping. I am worried, I hope she is getting enough milk this way cause to me sha, she isn't adding weight as I expect her to have . I am tempted to introduce formula cause I really don't know what else to do...

Mama relax o. @ 3wks wot do u expect her weight to be? It may b too early for u to start judging dat. U may even b biased cos u c her everyday. I don't think there s any cause for worry. Continue ur ebf

Are both breasts affected? If no then you don't have to stop breastfeeding. Breastfeed him from the unaffected boob and express the infected one( throw it away). I've had to deal with mastitis 3x now and was even told to continue breastfeeding. It cleared within a week & I never stopped breastfeeding.
I suggest you see another Dr & read up mastitis.

When putting him to sleep on his tummy, always watch out his nose is not obstructed in any form. My LO also sleeps long hours on his tummy but I have to keep adjusting his head sideways whenever his nose is covered

Stop using any form of oil on his head watch it for 1 week and see if the rashes will fade away. My LO had similar when he was a few weeks old and his pead advised same, within a week the rashes reduced and eventually disappeared.

If you need to apply anything on the hair/head, use vaseline or sheabutter for now

Thanks for d info. So we shld watch out for d one written in English? Do u kno d name of d company dat imports it?
The company that imports the original sebamed in Naija is Thompson and grace pharmaceuticals. They are somewhere in masha surulere. On sebamed's website, it's written there. So anytime you wanna buy it in Naija, look out for the company's name on it with nafdac number.

For those in abuja, you can get original from health plus or H Medix. There is fake everywhere

Pls mamas, my lo has refused to suck from my right breast, even Wen I force him, he cries n resist it. Bt if I place him on my left breast, he grabs it n sucks til he s ful. Pls wot is wrong wt my right breast, n wot do I do 4 him 2 start suckin it?
cheesy most babies do that at a point. You just have to keep giving him the rejected brea.st first when he is very hungry, try changing nursing positions. I used to stand while nursing him on the one he used to reject till he got used to it now he nurses both satisfactory.

You can also try expressing like favoredgal suggested

Wat I did wen my lo did dat was to slip dat breast she rejected into ha mouth while sleepy (an advise I got wen I googled it nd it worked) nd she took it well, but d moment she realised it she removed ha mouth but at least she sucked enof to reduce engorgement. Afta a while she adjusted nd started taking d rejected breast.

Is the rash only on his face? And can you remember where exactly you first noticed it coming out?

Please sabi mamas, help me with suggestions. My DD just started crying unprovoked. She has been crying like up to 3 times for some days now. It was worse yesterday, she was just crying loudly even though she was the same person playing few seconds before then. I don't understand this at all. I'm so confused. She even woke up around 2am today and started crying again. I gave her milk and she went back to sleep. I'm sure it's not hunger, she didn't fall, just nothing.

Please, what could be the cause and what steps can I take to stop this? She will be a year old in few days.

My son does that sometimes. I dont think anything is wrong with her. Just keep petting her. Pele

People said its the baby in my womb that is shinning eyes for him thats why he is crying like that.

Maybe separation anxiety. Read up on it.

Whatever though, I'm sure it's just a phase. Hang in there
