@mizmyColi, Almost all formulae are Good, go to a shop, check the prize of all the formula available, pick the one that you can afford comfortably. That even when you are sleeping the money can fall out of your pocket. cheesy.
You the first Tin, and watch your baby, use the second Tin, if it is good with your baby then continue. I use All milk, my son is 10months now, though I noticed some are creamy some are not.

Pls mother's no SMA DNA is made in UK, they are both made in IRELAND, One is made for Nigeria market in IRELAND, the other is made for UK market in IRELAND the both are good depending on the mother.

Thanks Mama.
I take it SMA Gold is different from DNA.

I have some like this and I used both soakers together. I But that is Hook and Loop/Velcro/Applix fastener on the front of the diaper so get ready to see your LO nekkid a lot (babies like the sound of it and it is very easy to remove grin). Just hold your camera and prepare for nekkid dancing.

Meanwhile, I used our Cotton prefold wrapped around a microfiber insert all night yesterday in a cover, no leaks. You should try it but use the Hemp or Bamboo because I think you can get 5-6 hours (your LO will pee more than mine), our cotton is quite thick.

Thank you for mentioning affordability. Please it's better to give cowbell Tina, so baby can eat the needed 7 spoons 5 times daily, than to buy sma gold and be adding only 2 spoons of milk to baby's akamu.

That small size of milk usually lasts maximum one week.

My aunt just lost her baby to force feeding cry,she was force fed yesterday ,the food entered the wrong place and she started fainting,they rushed her to the hospital and she gave this morning. So heart broken cos I told my mum just last week to tell her to stop force feeding that girl when my mum asked me to do like my aunt and force feed one of my boys that doesn't like eating.
Pls mamas its better to have a lepa baby that is alive than a dead orobo oh.
I still can't believe my ears

God help us o. But can we really stay and watch these children not eat? LO rejects everything. Puree, cereal, pap this morning, mashed stuff. I now allow hunger to mama him, even when obviously hungry he'll protest and cry but at least he'll agree to swallow the food. Then as soon as he finishes eating he'll start laughing.

We eat only 3 times now, that's only three spoons of cereal all day. I load as much milk as possible per plate.

May God help us and may that baby rest in peace.

Dexterush so for the loss of that child. Very sad when it can be preventable.

I will put a question to mamas and papas here generally, please answer with the first thing that comes to your head... no googling, dont ask anyone around you. There is no right or wrong answer. Shouting "blood of Jesus" is an ok answer to put as well.


Assuming you are alone and a baby is choking, what do you do, also assuming no one is there to help?

Discontinue whatever activity that started the choking then start rubbing/slightly tapping (beating) her back.

My first instinct is to lean baby forward and hit the back with an open palm so whatever is lodged in will come out. Then maybe bend the kid forward more and keep hitting the back. My mind tends to go curiously focused when things are really, shite hits the ceiling bad.

Dexterush, sorry for your loss.

Abeg all these stories are frightening, aren't they? Life feels too cheap here.

Gosh!pray i don't find myself in such situation o.
I would lean the baby foward and tap the back firmly with my palm until whatever the baby swallowed dislodges.

Hello Mamas,

Speaking of force feeding...I have a question.
For newborns who tend to sleep a lot, such that you have to wake them up say every 3 hours to feed..
Does that fall under force feeding??

ijeoma2728:


Wean him gradually, choose either night or day.
During the offer substitutes like snack or any drinks he like's. Distract him with toys tooo
After a week or two, you stop b.feeding at night, this will also help reduce your supply to avoid engorgment.
Mummy is happy and baby is happy.
10x mama. Pls any snacks suggestions? He's not used to sweets, biscuits or packaged drinks cos I dnt buy for him unless he gets as gift occasionally. Pls help with ideas to distract him cos he loves to suck to sleep after bath both morning n night.
Cc; all mamas
Pls treat as urgent o cos as I type he's unleashing vengeance trying to grab n scatter my phone embarassed

I will hold the baby by the arm pit and throw the baby up so he/she does that forceful breath or so.

Like dey do wen bathing a baby.

Another option is to put salt on d tongue as someone here mentioned.....

I will also be shouting Jesus Jesus.....

I'd sit the baby upright and start rubbing/slapping the back. If it's really bad I'd pray. At a point twill be hospital things.

Gud evening. Pls I want to knw hw light wil I make friso rice of my 4months n aweek old baby. And also to knw if I shld use bottled water or borehole water wen boiled. Tnk uu

Hello ma, I think friso rice is from 6 months. There are cereal for 4 months, like Gerber rice, etc.
You can read the previous posts like last weeks, other mamas here suggested some other cereals for 4 months.
Or, check FINA4804 posts precisely for that.

Bellaella is the shop rent included in the 200k or its just for the goods?



If it's just for goods you may consider

DRINKS
Cway and the likes(note you will buy bottles initially)
Pet bottle water
Pure water
Soft drinks
Juice
Malt drinks
Disposable cups
Etc
You will need a chiller to maximise patronage.


RAW FOODSTUFF (young ladies don't like this option but it's profitable)

Rice
Beans
Garri
Semo
Wheat meal
Yam flour(poundo)
Spaghetti
Vegetable oil
Tin tomatoes
Spices
Etc.

HAIR AND BODYCARE/SALON

Wigs
Weaves
Weapons
Relaxers
Hair cream
Body cream
Nail polish and remover
Ladies wears
Handbags
Hand drier
Towels
Wash bowl
Etc.

BAKING THINGS
Flour
Sugar
Icing
Baking powder
Yeasts
Butter
Eggs
Vegetable oil
Takeaway packs and spoons
Etc.

MINI BOUTIQUE

Monosex or unisex(your choice)


DIAPER and WIPES STORE


Or you can do online business of
Clothes
Shoes
Handbags
Weaves
Accessories
Baby wears

Just snap all you have or use internet pictures and post on twitter,facebook,nairaland etc with your contact details and you deliver to the person.


Or if you have a car and can cook or get someone to cook for you, look for a parking lot and station there during lunch hour. You may have to lobby for this sha.


If the shop money is part of the 200k your location and shop rate will determine for you.

Lastly do you have any skill to provide services? If you do, starting from there won't be a bad idea.

@Alphahandmaiden i'd quickly hold his head, bending him forward, head down, telling him sorry n to spit it out(even as I know he doesn't understand some of my turainchi yet grin ), rubbing his back with one hand.....or probably quickly put my fingers in his mouth with his head held down n praying frantically that he spits it out (I've had to do this couple of times when my son tried to eat pebbles of stone frm d stone bed) all these while trying my best not to freak out n be screaming 'yeeeeeeh! shocked embarassed " instead grin
