I don't know any other site you can Download from. The YouTube thing, what browser do you use? Try switching browser, that might be the problem. Another option is to buy DVD's.

Hello Mama, my Son is 5mths + as well and teething, anything and everything He sees goes straight to His mouth. His 1st tooth is about coming out.

His dr prescribed ors and 1 antibiotic like dat when He was pooing like 7 times a day and it stopped. He only poos green poo 1ce or twice every oda day.

My period started same day as urs.

it is well.. May God crown our efforts..
How i wished we live in the same area,i will gladly come with my boy,i dont go out too,i just stay home all day and am not comfortable with it at all. Women are realy trying. I have a wel paid job before but i had to resign due to terrible morning sickness during pregnancy and pressure from Dh, now am the one facing it alone. I feel depressed too when alone with no light all day but am taking each day as it comes hoping for a brighter tomorow.
If am annoyed, i use to tell dh that God forbid if we divorce,am going to take my son along with me to anywhere cos i forfit my career and profession just to take care of him, he will just smile.
I can relate with you on this, I also had to quit my job cos of ms n pressure. And to tell u d truth I regret it up til now cos it hasn't been easy . but God has been in control.
My lo is 7 months. His own is 'carry me' whenever he is awake, he will stay in his walker for few minutes and starts crying to get out of it. the only time I rest is when he is asleep (during the day he sleeps for just 30 mins and @ nyt he doesn't sleep till 12am or 1am) wakes up lyk 3 to 4 tyms before the day breaks.

@hajarahbadmus and other stay at home moms firstly I must commend you guys because it is not an easy JOB being a mom, cook, cleaner, errand person, washer man, playmate and wifey all together so kudos.
But you really don't have to be bored at home, there are other jobs you can do as a stay at home mom. For example you can learn embroidery/ monogramming and work from home, you can learn how to make pastries, cakes, small chops and start taking orders from home, you may even opt to be a middle person buying grains, eggs and whatever food item people consume daily and start selling at retail in your locality, for the bookworms I am sure you can find a proof reading job somewhere online to do or better still you can enrol in Nigerian Open university for masters or phd from the comfort of your home.
Unfortunately I don't have the luxury of time even though my Lo is 7 months old I work full time from 8am - 5 pm since she was 4 months old. Sometimes i wish i could stay home and be a #supermom like you guys!

Hiya! welcome to the world of vigilante wink

Truth is the small madam is adjusting too and we can only work around her schedule for now. So as much as is possible, please sleep when she sleeps during the day. It'll give you strength for the night vigil ahead cheesy

It's possible she's not filled up hence the wanting to keep bobby in the mouth and sleep. I won't advice we encourage it for your sanity's sake at least! Try expressing so you can be sure of what quantity is coming out per meal time. If she's on formula, better give her at night too so it takes a longer time to digest. Some mums also resort to dummies for thier babies when they realise its just the stimulation that baby wants!

@hajarahbadmus, u can get educative toys at delightful toyshop at illupeju. They also deliver to wherever u are. How old s ur baby? U can get stacking toy for him, puzzles, building blocks. For d building blocks, don't bring all out at d same time, bring out like 5-8pcs. Then show him wot to do wt it. As tender as he is, don't let him always have his way. Gv him paper and pencil to scribble.etc

My baby is very active too. I've always nursed the idea of giving her pencil and paper to scribble but fears that she may use the pencil to hurt herself because she can be really restless. I will try it soon when I have time to monitor her. It's not so easy working, having a toddler and being pregnant. I hail all mothers, we dey try abeg.

@Megilicious, you have to keep trying. My DD takes most food, but prefers cereals. I really wish she takes more of adult foods well too. God is your strength.

whn my lo started rejectin milk at nine months, I had to devise a means by soaking bread in his milk ( I remove the edges of the bread, cut the bread into tiny pieces in his cup, put the milk b4 puting water so the bread gets completely soaked.. he takes 2 slices of bread in 150mls of milk and I up his other sources of protein..since all he wants is adult food.. shikena.. so we eat bread nd milk.. thats our breakfast now..

its a phase.. but dnt let her get too comfortable with d carry carry o! babies r very sharp.. once they know that whn they open their mouths small na carry dey come next, they wont close the mouth again until they r carried..sometimes it can just b for attention. .
wht I do is to distract.. sing different rhymes, put on cartoon nd I increase the volume so its louder than his voice or I start talking like them, my baby enjoys music so na hiptv get us..hin go just forget cry dey laff..them I dance infrnt of him..ha! comedy of the highest order..
aim: so he understands tht its not every time he opens his moth I will carry him.. if u r not hungry, sleepy, thirsty, teething. .then go nd play..I am enjoying it now sha..

may God crown our efforts
