If she is purely on ebf, stop the antibiotics for a day and see the reaction. Flagyl made my lo purge more so a doc told me to stop using that and keep breastfeeding her and she became fine.

Yes ma. Thank you

Ok, pls stop the antibiotics like other mamas have suggested and see.


Haryanphe:


Before it use to be after breastfeeding her but it has reduced to like four times a day. The poo is not too watery but slimy and yellowish in colour(egusi-like). She is purely on breastmilk ma

Lmao! See ehn, I have identified certain things as safe (relatively clean, no sharp ends, no small bits that can choke baby) and just allow him to eat. Examples include my half dead phone, my wallet, car key (after I clean it with wipes), his bottled water, pack of wipes, diaper (unused biko). The worst is when we're trying to dress up, he's busy rolling away to pick cream or oil or comb or....urrrgh! My cousin gave her daughter her key to chew one day and some woman started talking about how unhygienic it is...my cousin didn't even bother answering her, you never jam.

I need to try the complimentary card one cos prying paper out of his mouth is stressful



Giddyperson:

About number 3, I remember when I thought this was a problem until my baby showed me part two. Now she wants to eat everything apart from her fingers or sterilized toys. Would be so good if she just ate her fingers cuz then I could wash her hands and let her go crazy, now she eats books, my purse, tries to eat my hair, other peoples hair, my phones, shoes, torch lights, bottles, cartons, these days i even give her my complimentary cards to eat cuz she's quiet when eating them and the paper doesn't dissolve easy, sometimes I just let her eat clothes cuz she starts a screaming feat when I take things away. Bad mum I know but peace of mind is priceless. She was an expert finger sucker in those days tho and added weight just fine.

enque:


the only thing my baby takes in a feeding bottle is formular, every other liquid is done via cup....she is waay older than urs anyways. I don't like spoonfeeding formular because I am not that patient, but if the creche says that's how they want to feed her, u should discuss ur reservation about spoonfeeding with them and they can make an exception for ur baby.

since she does 60-120ml on the average, they can make say 90-100mls and watch how she takes it. but then again, babies have moods and that determins what quantity of food they will take. example, my babby will eat more when she wakes from sleep than when she has been active, its like sleep triggers her hunger.

u can buy the 5 containers, u'll need it more for when she starts proper cereals.

most cereals have the same prep method - pour out cereal, add milk and then water. I guess gerber should be same.

Will most definitely do that. I stock up on my foodstuffs from iyanoba market. I cook my soups once a month and I buy majority of the ingredients when I go to iyanoba. I miss living around that axis. Things are so bleeping cheap there. I try as much as possible to avoid buying anything at Cele or Century market. I make ordinary didi here for N800. I made it last week in iba for N300, I vex die ehnn grin

Naomi14:
Eyah! When next you want to pay a visit to your mom just use the opportunity to buy.

Nan is 2100 there but i think it will be cheaper at Iyano-iba market. That big pharmacy store that has supermarket opposite. I have forgotten the name.

My current predicament. What I did: make 60mls and feed frequently say 1.5hoyrs interval. It's stressful AF but wetin man go do? Can you feed her with spoon? If you can, that's another good way to get food into her. She may not enjoy it as she will be crying but at leash, She is getting the required nourishment. I tried vitamins and appetite boosters but nothing worked. Heard they will outgrow it. Also, keep giving Breast milk as you normally would.

My baby wont even take 30mls, he keeps crying when i offer him bottle, like serious cry and i just have to give him breastmilk. I have tried different formulas even breastmilk in bottle, he wont take. Funny thing is he also used to take bottle. I dont know how long i have to keep trying before he takes it and i resume Monday also. O ti su mi

We all want the best for our little ones and try our hardest to protect them. There are so many different baby products out there all vying for our attention, but not all of them can be safe for your little one. In fact, it turns out that even baby food and formula may not be safe, an alarming study released this week found that many baby food products tested positive for arsenic, including 80% of infant formulas.
The test was done by a nonprofit called The Clean Label Project which advocates for transparent labeling. For the study, they tested baby food, infant formulas, toddler drinks and snacks that were all purchased within the last 5 months. According to their research, out of the 530 baby food products that were tested, it was found that 65% of them tested positive for arsenic, 36% for lead, 58% for cadmium and 10% for acrylamide. This is very scary news because all of these chemicals pose potential dangers to developing babies.
The brands that were the greatest offenders included Gerber, Enfamil, Plum Organics, and Sprout. These brands scored two out of five in the Clean Label Project’s report card for toxic metals. Also, 60% of the products they tested that claimed to be “BPA free” actually tested positive for the industrial chemical bisphenol. The number of the contaminants in each product range, but some of the products tested positive for up to 600 parts of arsenic per billion, which is far more than just trace amounts.
Almost 80% of infant formula samples taken ended up testing positive for arsenic. Arsenic has been associated with a variety of medical issues including developmental defects, cardiovascular disease, neurotoxicity, diabetes and has even been linked to cancer. “The baby industry needs to do a better job in protecting America’s most vulnerable population,” Jaclyn Bowen, the Executive Director of Clean Label Project, said.
So, what is the FDA going to do about it? Peter Cassell, an FDA spokesperson, said: “It is important for consumers to understand that some contaminants, such as heavy metals like lead or arsenic, are in the environment and cannot simply be removed from food.”
Back in 2016, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration proposed that they would set a limit of 100 parts per billion of arsenic in infant rice cereal, but they haven’t been enforcing that limit. In fact, rice often absorbs arsenic from the contaminated soil as it grows.

My son's birthmate....I envy her teething oo. My boy's gums don't seem teeth-ready yet grin at the diarrhea,have u given her ors? I do not think her weight is the cause of the stooling or not crawling oo. She'll crawl when she's ready momma. Pls take her to see a peaditrician if symptoms persist.
