Families, how is everyone & how was your day? Just thinking tonight, my baby is going to 13week, i"ve not seen my period. Am i safe to have unprotected sex since i've not seen my period?
You are safe if you are ebf directly not by expressing. you are covered till 6months.

Taymi:


Even when i'm not ovulating?
You are safe only if u are ebf both day and night. not be expressing but directly from your breast to your baby till your baby is 6month old and AF has not returned. its another type of FP. it worked for me. I started cautioning myself after I saw my period 4months after delivery.

Ovulation occurs before a period.So you may get pregnant peradventure ovulation chooses this time to occur, Play safe! Even women on ebf get pregnant.

What kind of story is he giving to you
Does he mean overweight people don't do family planning? Please go elsewhere
I weighed more than 85kg when I had my IUD inserted!
There are other options to consider: cervix size, if you have potentials of putting weight etc esp if they want to give you hormonals like implanon. Again, hormonals on its own won't make you fat; it only increases your appetite and if you can discipline yourself, you will be fine.

Telling you to use condom only is absolutely incorrect! Also remember not all doctors are skilled to do family planning. He's your ob'gyn or took your delivery does not mean he can do family planning. Go to a health centre or general hospital, they have special family planning clinics that will educate you and give you the best option.

This is a real eye opener ooo. Thank you. Will definitely visit the FP unit oooo

Sorry dear, that temperature thing can really weak someone. Give him para or ibuprofen and also expose his body(remove his clothes, socks and leave him only on diaper), after wiping the body, place the wash cloth or towel on his forehead it also helps bring the temp down.

How is he now?
Better, I hope.
Whenever his temp spikes, give him pcm or nurofen depending on which one is available. Try not to give him nurofen on an empty stomach sha.
Then use the wet rag to wipe him down. If after 3 hours the temp doesn't go down or keeps rising, please go to the hospital. Make sure to measure the temp with a thermometer as sometimes babies get hot but it doesn't translate to the temp being high. Might be your hands sef.



Kisses to him kiss

If she sells in an open market, then you're about 90% safe.
Just ask her what days and time she's always available and pop in unannounced on one of those days, price the items and check it out without revealing you're from olx, if the transaction goes through, reveal. If not, carry waka to another shop in the market

About this family planning, people around are telling DH that it delays/affects another pregnancy when one removes it. Now he's not in full support again although he says I can go for it if I want. pls any mama that did FP and took in without issues indicate..,lemme know.

Also, my baby has refused to take formula. she's 14weeks. I tried mixing it with Ogi she didn't accept it but she took plain Ogi yesterday. I'm not comfortable with this her style. what do I do pls?
Cc. feddy27, zaniey, hunniesuzie, giddyperson and all mamas


As much of an Ogi voltron as I am, I don't subscribe to feeding baby with ogi earlier than 4-6m.
Please 14 weeks is too early.
Follow Feddy's opinion please.


I didn't get a mention cos you didn't get my moniker right.

Mama Biko help me ooo.... I don’t want to go to hospital because my pediatrician always see me as to curious human being grin. My baby has been having this catarrh that will be going and coming. Although I usually have catarrh too because it’s once in a while that my nose goes completely dry. Secondly, the way she’s yawning nowadays is alarming. For example I picked her up from crèche dis evening, although the aunty told me that she just woke up but she yawned up to three times before we got home. Please has anyone experienced this. Is it a growth spurt or what? And what can I use to clear the nose once. Just bought another nasal drop sef. She’s fine o but na me dey justdey worry up and down.

Cc: Enque, Feddy27, AlphaHandMaiden,Zaynie, Jazzjazz,hunniesuzie and all mama here. Midasi, thank you o
If you think she took after you for the catarrh then there's a good reason to believe it's allergies, slight ones. It's most likely the dust or even AC.
Give her Daily Dose of vitamin c and drinking lots of water helps to make the catarrh less yellow and mucous-y

You will ovulate first before you see your first post-partum period, and you may not know when that'll be...so there is a high chance of you getting pregnant without knowing sef

Aunty calm down, we may have missed your question in the midst of plenty posts or no one has a sure answer to give u.

Anyways, I use baby tribotan for my baby whenever she has a rash, and it doesn't bleach her skin.
About the pulling of hair stuff, I don't have an idea but U can take him to a paed to get him checked out

This doesn't work for everyone and is not a risk you should take, I met one woman in the hospital who has 3 children and the last time she saw her period was before her first pregnancy. A friend of mine also got pregnant before her period came.

Biologically women ovulate before a period, it is when the egg isn't fertilized that it degenerates and becomes the period we see.

Thank u I will just try aveeno till am able to make coconut oil pls any idea how to detect fake aveeno don't want a repeat experience with sebamed

when it comes to buying skin products, where you buy them from actually determines whether you get yourself a fake or the real thing.

you can buy aveeno from any reputable supermarket in Nigeria or buy online from a US or UK store and have it delivered by one of the numerous companies that offer cross border delivery services. I think some ladies here use the delivery company MFA or so. it might actually work out cheaper than buying from a store in Nigeria but most importantly you are guaranteed you are not buying a fake product.
