@newmercies

I responded to your PM but never got to hear from you again.

Anyway, let me try to respond to your worry here.

My son is 2 years and 3 months now. He still doesn't speak. But mutters some plenty things which I call baby Chinese. Hes my first and there are no kids in my compound. My dh and I are the only married people in my compound. So he plays alone and has imaginary conversations with himself.

He started creche late and most of the kids there were not talking either. Hes in pre nursery now and there has been some improvement. even though there is no clear speech (sometimes), he does show that he understands what you say and can even choose what to eat just by looking at what you intend to feed him (right before he goes into a fit if it's a meal he doesn't want)

I know lots of people will say take him to the hospital, do this or do that, but in my opinion, your kid is fine. What your kid and mine are probably lacking are other kids to play with!

My mil also told me my dh never uttered a word till he was 2yrs and 6months old!

If you're still too worried, then perhaps you can see a paediatrician to calm your fears. But I honestly think your child is doing just fine!

I have read that some kids use the time they are to use to develop skills to develop other skills instead.

The things my kid does, I just look and say, well you decided to learn decided one first before talking


I hope this helps

Sorry for the long post.

Good evening mama
Please mama that have done family planning please which type of test was conducted cos when I went to make enquiry was Tod only pregnancy test will be conducted and am to choose any options of my own.


Sorry this is coming late.

Pregnancy test,
Your BP
Your weight.

If the blood pressure is high,then you won't qualify for any hormonal method.
Other options will be discussed with you.

They will also ask about any form of cancer or other hormonal drugs one is taking.

Will also advise to go for cervical cancer screening especially if you opted for IUD.

The is my experience from the hospital i used.

Hope this helps.

We got ours at St. Mary's Catholic Hospital, Gwagwalada (costs #10,000). It was for Meningites and 4 others, all given at 12 months.

They never lack any vaccines in this hospital.

I bought sebamed products for my little girl too but I’ve not started using the body milk. She uses original Shea butter mixed with pure coconut oil and so far, there has been no issue. My girl’s skin isn’t dry though.

Heard Moringa leaf and it's seed works well. Ensure you always check your BP while on it so you know when to stop so it doesn't get lower than expected. Also, Bitterleaf water as well as Zobo (without sugar) works too. Cucumber and Beet (you can get it from those hausas that sells fried rice ingredients)

I have a sister who had Pre-eclampsia that persisted after delivery, so these among others were what we got for her. Try it, you will be fine

You must address it aggressively
Firstly take up his personal hygiene by your self no delegation for now
Give him a bath thrice a day and let it be thorough
Use new sponge and change his bath soap to dettol or something in that range
Add savlon to his bath water
Pay attention to his arm pits, privates and behind his ears
Use only Shea butter and coconut oil as his moisturizer
Ensure his clothes are well washed and dried
Let’s start from
Here

I think 3 weeks old is small for powder, but in case there is no option please be careful with it. Don't allow it enter his nostrils

if it is not well prepared, it can cause stomach upset for the child. am not too comfortable with it instead I prepared home made brown pap for my child and mostly prepare it directly in the pot

Good morning mamas, please I'm a soon to be FTM, started shopping for baby things, please kindly recommend affordable but good diapers, body lotions (I was told sheabutter or palm kernel oil is good at the initial stage. Please share your inputs), soaps, baby formulas, feeders and any advice I need. Thank you so much.

Personally I don't like palm kernel as body cream, prefer Shea butter.
I'm going to share the brands we use
Soap: cussons
Diaper: molfix
Formula: Nan, there are other good brands just buy what you can afford
Body cream: jimpo ori, its really nice and smells good too
