Is it only malaria test they ran? Although I see they gave him antibiotics too, did they talk about infection? How often is he stooling? Does he have fever?

Please continue the ORS if he's stooling multiple times, go back to the hospital (or another one) and get a proper diagnosis

Whenever tests are run for your child please ask questions and let the doctor interprete the test properly for you. Malaria shouldn't cause a bloated stomach or runny stool. Teething is not sickness, and babies should not be weak because of teething

We carried out blood count, pcv check n malaria yesterday. He is much stronger now at least he isn't sleeping all tru but still stooling,and still has bloated stomach. If it remains a me I might take him to another hospital dis evening.

Akorkor:


Malaria should not cause bloated stomach and watery stool. Please let them do urine test and blood count to be sure its not infection. All the best and God keep them safe for us all

How person go get massive breast and cannot breastfeed baby? This thing tire me ooo.
Mama's please come to my aid
1.) My 11 day old baby boy is growing breast. I noticed the enlarged breast about 5 days ago. Googled it and was told it is hormone from mother's breast milk and that it will go on its own. Has any mama in the house witnessed this?

2.) Baby has totally rejected breast milk. Recal I told u it took 4 days for the breast to start flowing. He was started with formula , so when the BM started flowing , I was feeding with both. I noticed he starts sleeping as soon as he puts his mouth on the breast and sucks few seconds. Now, he doesn't suck at all. He either fights to remove the breast from his mouth, or He plays with the nipple. I thought maybe the bm does flow well and he is tired of sucking with little or no milk flowing. I expressed the breast milk with hand and mixed with his formula. He rejected it. He didn't rush it as he did with the sma gold. He later took some and didn't finish the normal quantity he used to take after a very long while.
It is now obvious the issue is that he doesn't like the BM . Any solution ?

Were you given antibiotics in the hospital? For stubborn catarrh I usually do garlic, ginger, onion and a little honey. Blend and give a teaspoon 3 times a day

NB for anybody who plans to share, honey is dangerous for children under 1

ftmum:


Thanks for the response sis. We were not given antibiotics. But can i get one to start using for him?

Sorry for my plenty questions at what month can I start plaiting my baby's hair, and at what month can I start spreading her legs when I back her? Also, who have any solution to a bald head? Cradle cap has finished our front edges thanks. Was thinking of cutting with scissors to start afresh but she is too young for that. What can I do please

hunniesuzie:
Take her to the hospital. Me sef I'm also scared of suggesting medication for an 8 week old

Akorkor:


You can get Vitamin C for her. Better still, take her to see a pediatrician

Akorkor:

Please always ask them question. They should not just prescribe. I always do infact they turn their screen to me and explain it to me one after the other. I wish your son quick recovery in jesus name. Amen

hunniesuzie:
I generally avoid self medicating with antibiotics. Try the garlic remedy and see first

I think you can be plaiting it from 3 months. Below 3 months, you should just be bonding it with ribbons.
I'm in same shoes as you, although my baby didn't have cradle cap, all her hair in the middle between the front hair and the back hair has cut in a straight line fashion common with some babies. I'm going to cut the hair next week..cos its not making plaiting very fine.

I started separating my babies leg at 2 month.

ftmum:
Good morning. Please help a mum.

My 15month old son has this catarrh for so long. Been using different catarrh syrup prescribe for us. It did not go still. Now, we have stopped using anything on him.

Though he do have catarrh and after using drugs it will go. But this particular one has been over 2 or 3 weeks. Its not as if he is drooling, or the catarrh is running down from his nose oooo, but when he sneeze the catarrh will come out and even if he breath, you can sense it.

Please what else can i do? Thanks
