Good evening everyone, I took my 3months old to cut his hair today but the Barber asked me to wait till he is a year old. Please is this correct?
It depends on your tradition or what you believe
My daughter is 2 years 8 months, I've not cut her hair since birth and we don't have any issues but I'll do when she request to have it cut.

Good afternoon mamas, please I'm here again with questions, make una pardon me.

1. I saw blood discharge last week Thursday, normally before pregnancy AF lasts for 5 or 6 days , it's 9days today and the supposed AF hasn't stopped. Could it be that Lochia came back? or is it AF?

2. My DS has catarrh and it's been 6days now, it's still there and I've been giving him 1ml of vitC 3times daily with mopping with warm water and applying Shea butter and mentholatum. Please what else should I do?

Mbok don't Waka pass.
The supposed AF could be stress induced so pls try n observe good rest
For the catarrh fill a hot water bottle up with warm water, cover tightly and wrap well with wrapper. Place beside your Ds. The little heat from the bottle will warm up the bed and loosen up the catarrh.
It works for my dd myself included.

Rota and Penta together?. That's unusual.
Usually they recommend the rotavirus OR Penta vaccine when baby is healthiest cos any slight immune deficiency can make the vaccine become virulent in the system.

Please see a Dr as soon as you can, diarrhea after Rota is normal and yet not a good sign.

Thanks ma. I didn't know that the vaccines don't go together but I was concerned about them being too much to be given at once but the nurse claimed it's standard practice to give together.

Thanks to all mamas that responded, Dr has placed lo on zinc and ors. I can see improvement already. I can now breath in relief

Good evening all, how are we all doing n how are we coping with our LOs?

Please ooo, my DS will be 7 months on d 19 of September and I noticed ever since we started solids, he takes little cereals and that's all ,he doesn't finish 50 mls....is it normal? He sucks breast more like say tomorrow no dey.he's tummy becomes big like he's full. We did EBF. He's weighted 9kg at 6months.

Please, I just want to know if my son is not being under fed.

His weight at 6 months is great.
He is not underfed. He is still enjoying d breast.
My baby of 8 months did exactly like dat. After d exclusive breastfeeding,he still sucks so much and takes cereal a little.
What I did,I reduced the frequency and time for breast milk.I feed him his cereal first before breastfeeding.
I noticed that after taking the cereal,he won't demand for breast or suck for too long again because he is already full.
At 8months now,he can consume almost 3 bowls of cereal and top it up with breast milk.
He will adjust with time if he is the foody type.

I've been meaning to ask, AF comes once in a month, sometimes scanty, sometimes like cm(brownish).
Please should I be worried cos I'm already worried.
When is it going to adjust?


I don't think there is any course to worry.
It will adjust fully after some time.
You are just 3months postpartum.

Lol, depends on you tho.
We shave to baldness by the 8th day in Islam.
Subsequently, we go on very low cut for boys.

The barber is most likely scared of handling a baby or feels he might hurt him grin

Things u need a good thermal bag.
A freezer bag or ice pack(those plastic that keep iceblock without melting.
Storage bottles or a good feeding bottle that can withstand being refrigerated.
A hotwater flask that can keep water for 24hrs atleast to be on the safe side
A cup or bowl deep enough to hold water for the bottle.
An extra bag or plastic bucket with cover to keep used bottles.

Before u start creche,express at home and give baby so u can dwtermine how much food baby takes at once eg 100mls at a go.
Also check the time interval eg. Every 2 hours.
Now express the day before and fill all your storage bottles at 100mls or if u r using a feeder directly all at 100mls. If u resume 9 n close 2 probably get home by 4.that means u will need like 4bottle or 5 bottles.
Store in the freezer.
In the morning
Pack your storage bottles in the thermal bag put the ice pack to keep it cold.
Pack your sterilized bottles with their nipple.please for sanitary purposes unless u r sure of the nanny at the creche,pack 5 bottles with 5 teats in a seperate bag. Conatining the hot water flask n the cup n the bowl.
WRITE DOWN SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO DEFROST AND WARM YOUR BABY'S MILK AND TIME TO FEED.
pack diapers n changing clothes, tag the empty bucket along.they should keep the used bottles for u,they shoyldnt wash it. That wayu r sure they are actually using a new bottle everytime.

Be friendly with the nanny.explain to her physically how u want ur child treated. Stress importance of hygiene without sounding bossy. Appreciate her.

Itsquite easy.but u need to form a routine.

Best of luck
thanks alot. I will do my best

Evening

I'm not doing exclusive but partial exclusive if there's something like that. My lo takes formula on average of once a day or twice depending on if I couldn't express much or days when he eats much or when I return home very late

What I did was, two weeks before my resumption I started expressing milk and feeding my little one only from bottles during the day. I did this to be able to measure what volume he takes per meal and how many times he'd feed during the day. This still guides my pumping.

If you Can express at work n keep cold till you get home, then practice this pumping while still on leave.

The idea was to do a trial run of what I'd do when I resume. Your creche shud have a fridge to maintain the frozen milk. And teach them how you want them roto handle it. I advise dropping an extra bottle of milk in case baby wants more or you're running late.
am grateful for your suggestion
