grin anyway i dont think i will be comfortable with waking up a new day and allow my baby to just pass a day without looking fresh from a good bath..our mothers will not even agree.. not after all the pee and poo. Cleaning their butt is simply not enough to me. At least baff once a day to feel fresh..


Yea. Once a day is cool.
My sis said they told them a quick clean down with a soft towel and warm water will suffice.

So all the planning my mum did to get ready for that our rigorous bath exercise and massage therapy that we put our babies thru, all were futile. cheesy wink

Good evening mamas please pardon my inquisitiveness, we are 10weeks gone.

Is it safe to take chilled water?
Someone said I shouldn't take Milo as my beverage, she said I should take Lipton�

Also, I did the indirect comb test and tested negative, my Aunty that works in the lab said I have to repeat the test every two weeks till childbirth, Abeg how's that possible?

Sabi mamas Abeg help me chook mouth for my matter.
Thank you and God bless.
Taking indirect comb test every two weeks is not necessary. since u have done it now that u are 10 weeks gone, u can do a repeat test between 24- 28 weeks since u said its negative. Assuming its possible the two weeks test would have been to monitor the level of the antibodies.

Medical and experienced persons in the house, please come to my aid.
I know its normal to have a bit swollen feet in pregnancy since even every other part is swollen / big. But my concern is that only one of my legs is swollen and very painful. I have gone to the hospital and my Dr said ITS nothing serious and normal til I give birth. I told him I know but my fear is that since its one leg and its painful, he just said its normal.

But I read on Google that two averagely swollen feet is nothing serious but one swollen leg with pain is not good. That it means the veins carrying blood may be blocked or blood is clotting. please how true is this since my Dr isn't taking it serious .

They are not dirty o!
When my sis gave birth, she was told that babies are born with a protective layer on their skin that nourished them in the womb (vernix or so, not sure), so she shouldn't be quick to wash it off.
Besides, I personally think we 'over bath' our babies. Baby wen no do any work, we de baff am 2 -3 times with sponge like farmer? angry Haba.
Only difference is our weather, if not ehn?
lol some of them are dirty oo, most of the grown ups bathe once or twice a week especially during winter... na them make perfume expensive here so angry lol. Some will blame cold while some will blame dry skin. If you get close to some of them especially in the bus you go wan faint. I bathe my boy just once everyday

Story time.


So, I want to share with y'all something that happened to me yesterday. Just thinking about it still gives me goosebumps of what might have been. Indeed God is good.

On Sunday evening,hubby took down the curtains in a fit of sudden energy ( to me,he was only showing himself cuz he is as lazy as f.uck cheesy). He washed them and put them out to dry. Due to the harmattan, all, save one, was dry within three hours. Both of us were too lazy to go out that night to go bring in the last curtain,which was even strange to me cuz I never leave my stuff outside overnight,no matter what. Na so we leave am for line. I don already plan say I go blackmail am to help me bring it in right before he leaves for work.

Fast forward to yesterday's morning, I made his breakfast and felt the urgent urge to go and get the curtain. While he was still getting dressed, I walked outside. As I got closer to the cloth line, I heard a sound coming from hubby's car. I moved closer and traced the sound to his tire. Air was leaking out of his tire. I took what I came out for and went back inside. I alerted him on what I saw and he rushed out to check. When he came back,he told me someone had deliberately punctured his air valve to let out the air. He even saw the cover of the tube right beside the tire. I immediately went cold all over. My husband is someone that doesn't even check his car condition before jumping in to go to work. He just opens his car, starts it and fiam! He moves. He would have unsuspectingly entered his car, driven on his usual speed of 120km/h on the highway and had a serious accident. God forbid!

The scary thing is that the villain who did this timed it so well. It happened just before I came out,which is the usual time my hubby actually leaves for work. But yesterday, I started my wahala and delayed him.

My reason for sharing this, is that most times we assume our enemies are our family members,relatives or even colleagues at work. If something had happened to hubby,I would have been cursing my village people. But I had no idea someone who lives right in my compound means me and my family harm,to the extent of trying to kill my hubby physically.

Mamas, this is our most vulnerable time. That time when we go through the valley of the shadow of death to bring into this world a new life. Don't take anyone for granted. This is the time to go on your knees and pray hard cuz that smiling face who always ask of your welfare and baby's might just be wishing you harm. We should be alert physically and spiritually. The heart of man is desperately wicked. Up till now, I don't even have a suspect in mind.
Note that all this happened before 6:30am.

End of story. grin

Hmm, scary indeed! But God pass them, Just be very careful and prayerful. We really live in a wicked world

I have same issue. But doctor said since my urine doesn't have protein and my BP is fine, I'm good to go.
A matron said the baby was probably sitting more on that side. Just try to walk it off in the evenings. Pele.

These oyinbo people will not kill somebody.

I stumbled on a youtube video uploaded by babycenter on how to bath a newborn.

It says you shouldn't bath a baby more than once or twice a week. shocked I also noticed the midwife didn't use soap, only a wash cloth to clean the baby in the tub with warm water and just shampoo for the baby's hair.
It says it is absolutely not necessary to use soap on a baby, but if you must, use a very mild soap.

I was even shocked that most of the commenters found nothing wrong in it..like its normal to them. One commenter even said bathing them more than twice a week can cause skin dryness and allergies early in life.. (duhhh!!)

These people are dirty IMHO! Gaddemit angry angry

My sister experienced this some weeks ago not until she gave her baby an African baby scrub after 4 days of oyinbo rub and shine ..lol before the baby had a very goooood sleep.

Cappo Rubyzz have been in the hospital since yesterday o.
I was having cramps like pain + back ache, Mr Google told me it's uterus expanding and tommy since am 20wks, I endured all through monday night and tuesday went to work hoping the pains will go for where, when I couldn't bear it anymore I took my bag, went home,took my card and went to the hospital, the real pain started on the way, was almost crying. Scan was done, baby was doing great in fact was told its a BOY but the placenta isn't where its suppose to be and the small fibroid was there too. Doc I met said I need to be admitted immediately cos I was having premature contractions, ewwwww, was given a drug and injection. Come and see pain, I dey see stars in fact to be candid, I saw the twin sister of labour pain, couldn't seat, stand or lay on the bed,was just twisting and telling my sis to go call doctor to come and bring out baby, I already lost hope and was just saying God after 3months ms ahhh. After all drama sha was given another injection and I slept, though pains were still there till this morning but not as but now am better and still for bed rest and observations. I pray I carry to term in Jesus name. Amen

Senior mamas please what exactly caused that pain? Was it the fibroid, the wrongly placed placenta or baby was indeed trying to come out. Help a JJC out and first timers like me please don't endure unnecessary pains, call or go to the hospital. May the Lord make it easy for us all.
