@luscioustrish :- damp wash cloth did it for me as DS teeth started coming out @ 14 months thereabout . Enjoy the mouth cleaning now ooo as when you want to start using brush as more comes out...na fight ooo.

Sabi mamas, how do you brush your toddlers teeth in peace without struggle?

@sansa143

Some babies sweat profusely during the deepest part of their nightly sleep cycle and end up soaking wet. Because babies spend much more time in this deepest stage of sleep, they're more likely to sweat during the night than adults or even older children.

Possible cause for concern: Sweating is very common, but excessive sweating could mean that something isn't right. For example, excessive sweating – especially when eating – can be a sign of congenital heart disease as well as various infections and sleep apnea. Overheating is also a risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) .

What to do about it: The room your baby sleeps in should be warm but not hot. Set the room temperature to a range that feels comfortable to a lightly clothed adult. Dress your baby in the amount of clothing that you'd be comfortable sleeping in without covers. Resist the urge to bundle her up and keep blankets, quilts, and comforters out of her crib.

As a rule of thumb, remember that if you're too hot, your baby probably is too. If the house is cool and your baby is dressed lightly and still sweating, talk with her doctor.

Mamas I got tempted by all this sumptuous purees u people are talking about here. I decided to give my 5mths+ exclusively breastfeed baby banana puree and apple puree separately and he took it very well but I noticed he had to push so hard poop he cried so hard when he pooped and when I checked his diaper and I could pick the poop off the diaper to tell u how hard it was. Hubby had to force him to drink water cos he doesn't like it.
I tot fruit helps people to poop easily? Pls what didn't I do right?

enque:


Hallos, i don show
eheeen, so here is what we do...

fruits - Banana puree, apple puree, avocado puree

cereals - Gerber oatmeal, Nutribom rice, nutribom multigrain, Cerelac (any of their combos), nutribom maize

Home made foods - Plaintain+titus fish puree, Sweet potato+titus fish puree, any other new meal we have tried and she likes.

August secrets nuttymeal, August secrets mixagrain,

Her daily meal is a combination of one or 2 foods food from each of the above groups and then milk (formula) feeds as well.

Example, for today I packed - 2 milk feeds + August secrets Mixagrain + Plantain fish puree + Cerelac.
She had breastmilk very early in the morning B4 we left the house(5.30/6am ish) and then around 8am she will have her mixagrain. Later in the day her nanny rotates the formula feed and other solids for her.
Most days she finishes all her food, but there are days when we have mostly 1 milk feed left, In such a case we take the milk for dinner and then breastfeed all night till the following morning.

I just try to vary her food so she isn't eating the same thing every day.

On the days when we have exhausted our home-made foods, we just do august secrets + cereals + formula feeds.

For cereals I also mix; Cerelac + nutribom or Gerber+cerelac or Gerber+Nutribom

* We try new meals on weekends, so I can see her reaction and how well she takes it. If she likes it, then I incorporate it into her weekday schedule.
*She likes boiled egg yolk, so I give her at nights when we are home (not everyday o), cos i feel it may get spoilt if i have to pack it in the morning and they wait till later to feed it to her.
*Fruit Purees are for snacking, more like an in-between meals kinda thing, cos e no de belleful her again. We also take fruit purees as dinner and then use bre.astmilk to support
*August secret veggie beans is for weekends too. She isn't a fan of it jare so I didnt include it in her weekday schedule.
* I add formula to her August secrets food except veggie beans

Chai! I can't believe all I just typed, e b like project defence speech

biko, if i remember more tips...i'll let u know jare

mrslander:

Hey mamas,I am thinking of just resigning from work to take care of my LO. I resumed back to work last week just as he turned 3months old. Before I resumed I introduced Nan because the breast milk I express won't be enough for him till I come back(we have not had power supply for like 1month 2weeks). I leave on the mainland and work on the island,I leave home say 5:40am with hubby so we have a nanny that takes care of my DS. I breastfeed him very well before leaving,some mornings he feels to sleepy to suck very well.

So to the issue now,I introduced feeding bottle to him like 1month before I resumed and he was taking it very well,just before I resumed he just stopped taking it. He doesn't take even the breast milk from spoon or bottles but he sucks breast very very well . So we resorted to forcing him even when he is crying to take the expressed milk/Nan via spoon. When he is very hungry,he takes say 60mls(then he starts crying,coughing so loud and sometimes ends up throwing up). This is what happens every single day since I started work,he seems to have lost so much weight. I come back say past 6pm as I close by 4pm for now.

So i came back earlier than normal yesterday,I opened the door with my key. The state I saw my son just made me breakdown,his clothes and bib was very wet,his eyes were red and teary. He just finished his milk of not even up to 60mls,for his cloth to be wet most likely he was pouring out the milk as he was been fed.

So I am wondering,for how long will we continue force feeding my 3months plus son when all he just wants is breastmilk directly from the breast itself at least for now. I actually plan quitting my job say October while I try to get a place close home,maybe I should resign by the end of this month and come take care of my DS before I lose him(he cries every time he is being fed till I come back home in the evening).

Sorry for the epistle,I am a first time mum and I am so confused at the moment. I love my son sooo much and I feel so guilty seeing him pass through this. Mum and mum in law thinks he will adjust but this is almost 2weeks now and he is even getting worse as he gets so angry at been fed with spoon. Mamas advice me oooooo

Abeg make Una no vex o
My ds has 2 teeth now
When do I start cleaning or brushing it for him?
Do I need to buy baby toothpaste?
Do I need to buy baby toothbrush.

helovesme:


Yes. Use toothbrush and toothpaste right from when the first tooth springs out.

Please stop cleaning your baby's ears. It's just too risky. Q-tips/cotton buds should NEVER be inserted into a child's ear. The risk to damaging or rupturing the ear drum is high. There is also the risk of an ear infection

A baby's ear is self cleansing. No paediatrician (I'm not talking doctors/general practitioners masking as paediatrician) will tell you it's okay to clean inside a baby's ear. It's a complete NO-NO.

All you need is to clean the outer ear. This can easily be done using a fannel at bath time.

Jaygrl:
We try to sing,dance for him while he eats. I have tried the syringe thing too,when he is crying and struggling it just keeps hitting his gum. The creches in VI where I work are quite pricey,the distance from where I work to where I live is quite far,I won't want to put him through that stress everyday,I don't have my personal car I use a bus....Thanks for replying promptly

Me likey! How much ma?

Akorkor:


YES YES AND YES!!! YOU CAN, YOU CAN , YOU CAN!!!. People leaving abroad with no family around do it so you can do it. A quote from a favorite novel says " YOU CAN IF YOU THINK YOU CAN". Please dont leave your job because there is no job outside and your family needs it.
My question to you is: Do you have a younger sister that can help or from your husband family? If yes, please let her help out and if NO, look for a creche closer to your office and pop in at your free period. If your HR is the friendly ones let them know what you are going through am sure they will be glad to give you some little bit freedom to pop in and check your lo.
I stay alone in another country and this is what i do and God has been helping me so far. Earlier my sister was with me but let me tell you the fact, she doesn't really do much for me apart from carrying my baby. I bath my LO, even cook for her when i come back from work but all these make me a stronger lady because immediately she left i didnt even miss her for once. SO AM VERY SURE YOU CAN. Please don't leave your work. God will help you.

hunniesuzie:
Let me share my perspective. My husband is also not based in Lagos. This is the reason why I had to get a help (Not nanny) She helps with house chores, errands, carrying baby sometimes when I need to bathe etc. My baby goes to a creche in my estate so drop off and pick up is convenient (I'd have considered near my office but cos I work quite far and the traffic has Oyo tribal marks). For you a creche near the office may work if you want to pop in during your break, there's no option to pop in where I work. But what helped me:

1. A good breast pump if you want to continue exclusive. Also regular light. If these aren't options forget it. You'll have to combi-feed (breast when you can and formula other times). My baby is combi-fed and very healthy
2. You need to start your LO on bottle feeding at least a month before you resume so he gets used to it
3. Get the creche before you resume if possible and start dropping him for a few hours every day just to ease the separation anxiety
4. Keep applying for a job in your husband's location, by God's grace it will work out
