Hello sabi mamas
I lost my mucus plug this morning. Should I wait for labour or head to the Hospital to get checked. I was induced in my first pregnancy. So I don't know when labour starts naturally

congrats in advance, as a second time mum labor will progress faster so to be on the safe side go to the hospital.

Please mamas, let's be careful who we hand our babies to.
A lady left her 2months old baby with a friend at my mum's shop. She went into the market to buy some stuff. After she left, her baby started crying uncontrollably and the baby is on EBF(exclusive breast feeding).
The friend couldn't endure the baby's cries anymore and guess what she did?

She bought satchet water, opened it and started giving the 2months old baby.

My mum tried to intervene but the friend said she is tired of the cries and the water wont kill the baby.
I dont think the lady values her friend's baby at all. It was so surprising
She for back d baby now instead of that, abi wrapper no dey available?

Pls take care of ur self o. regards to baby Hansel and grandma.

I do not think the friend has done anything wrong here.

Why would a responsible mother leave her EBF fed baby without making arrangements on what the baby will drink whilst she is away? No formula, no expressed milk, no water. Did she leave instructions on what the baby should be given just incase the baby became hungry/cranky? In fact, she should be punished for child abandonment.

Babies do not have an alarm clock to indicate when they are hungry or thirsty. Babies can get hungry at anytime.

The friend had no choice but to do what she did as the baby was clearly hungry or thirsty. Better to give her water than to leave her crying herself into a fit or till she chokes on her tears.

The only thing she should have done differently was maybe give her nestle water rather than sachet water.

The wrong the friend did is giving an EBF baby water. Not just any water, satchet water abi pure water. It just didnt feel right sis.

I"m sure she isnt experienced with babies else she could have checked to see if there was anything else making the baby cry. Probably a wet diaper, heat or so on.

That's why i think its best to watch who you give your baby to

EBF baby or not. It's absolutely wrong to leave your baby in a "shop in a market" with a friend to go shopping without making adequate arrangements on what the baby should eat should he or she start crying or leaving clear instructions on what should have been done. The baby is 100% the mother's responsibility.

That's one of the perils of EBF. you have to be with your baby every single time especially when outdoors. If a mum can't stick to the rules of EBF, then why go down that route and leave the poor baby to cry in hunger.

Do not forget that this friend wasn't indoors at home/in a familiar environment. She was in your "mum's shop" and she's probably inexperienced and this is where your mum should have come in (if she was allowed to do so). She should have either carried the baby and comforted or tell the lady where to get bottled water. I'm guessing your mum decided not to do so since the lady and the baby are total strangers and these days where one can't trust anybody, I won't advice my mum or any mum to touch, hold or comfort a stranger's baby.

I hope your mum seriously tongue lashed the baby's mother though.

My mum usually intervenes o but i'm sure she was either busy with customers or the friend didn't give her the chance to. The girl didnt bother asking where dey sell bottled water. She just called those pple hawking pure water and bought it. The baby was even rejecting the water and she was still forcing him to take.

There was a young girl who was crying profusely while trying to soothe her baby as she buying something at my mum's shop. My mum asked her what the problem is and she said her baby has been crying for an hour uncontrollably and she doesnt know what to do anymore.
My mum carried the baby from her, changed his clothing to sth lighter, massaged his tummy a little and in minutes, the child slept off.

But i've even tell her to stop helping strangers with their babies before wahala go happen one day and it'll be on her head.

Of course not. Duh!

Please I'm tired of typing on the issue.

My point is clear - do not leave a baby alone with anyone (whether friend or foe, experienced or not) without clear instructions on what should be done if the baby starts crying or becomes cranky.

Lol. It's the frustration/lack of patience that comes from the pressure of handling a crying and hysterical baby as a totally inexperienced lady.

It's the same frustration that leads to psychos (some of the them are actually the baby's parent) shaking a baby vigorously just to calm them down and which then leads to the brain bleeding and further health challenges down the line (Google shaken baby syndrome).
