Good evening sabi mamas
My son i s 2_weeks old today.
I am a ftm
I have a couple of questions I need to ask
1. How long does it take for the navel to heal completely? ( it fell off at 8 days)
2. My MIL suggested that we give the boy grapewater for his stomach.has anyone tried it? Or what else works?
3.it seems as if he doesn't get satisfied with just breastmilk and water. Can he start with ogi baba at 2 months plus?

Thanks in ad as I await your answers

if baby is colicky, you can either wait it out or use medicine if you can't. I didn't use gripe water tho
3.it seems as if he doesn't get satisfied with just breastmilk and water. Can he start with ogi baba at 2 months plus?

Please how long does it take baby's cord stump to fall off, it's about 10 days now and still not fall off....

We were warned not to use anyother thing but cotton wool and moko spirit. Clean from the base of the navel ( attachment to belly) upwards at least 8 times a day. Don't cover with diaper immediately after cleaning, allow to air dry. Allow to fall on its own. As long as u are doing the right thing , you shouldn't bother how long it takes to fall. It could range from 2 days to 2 months ( depending on the nature of baby's skin)

Good morning Mamas, ftm first post on the new born thread, abeg welcome me.

I thought I was the only one getting unsolicited advice on how to make my lo yellow. It's a serious matter o, mix this mix that. I don't know if any black person will be found in the next generation in Nigeria...
Embrace your color, black is beautiful

1. Just continue cleaning with cotton wool and spirit it will heal.
2. You can give gripe water if the baby is griping/colic.
3. If you want to do exclusive just eat more and take more fluid , then don't rush when feeding. But if you don't want to do exclusive you can support with formula

hi.

1. Keep applying the spirit, it will heal
2. No, search colic on this thread for advice
3. Absolutely not. BM and infant formula only till 6 months

Don't mind them biko.
When Moyo was born, they prophesized blackness for the boy body, his father and ALL the males in his family are charcoal black so me sef I don prepare for black pikins.
Now he's not even as dark as he was when he was born.
I don't let it bother me biko.






But God knows I don't want a black baby girl sha grin grin grin

You never can tell the outcome/reactions with using body cream on babies regardless of the brand name even when it is specifically made for them.

I bought sebamed range of products for my ds when he was born but I only used the baby soap. Its over a year now and all I have used as body cream for him is coconut oil and sometimes sheabutter.

No skin issues whatsoever save for once in a green moon dry skin caused by extreme heat. Even at that, sheabutter restores the skin to normal.

We are in similar shoes. Got everything sebamed but am using only the soap and coconut oil. My baby gets rash from time to time. I had to stop every other thing I was using.
