FTM too dearie,but then essence was just running mild temperature in the evenings of 10-14 days after which we just saw 2 white teeths. No stooling till the teeths were out and she was active. However, that was at 4 months,2 weeks as against the 6 months we were told at the hospital. Lemme add that,we started using teething soap at 3 months if you are Yoruba. What it does is to lessen the discomfort that comes with teething. All the best dear. Make sure she sucks more too.
please ma, do you know the name of the soap. My MIL can get it for us. Thanks maami.

If the hospital has conducted a test to make the conclusion then follow the medication prescribed to you.

The major thing I observed during teething is slight rise in temperature which could sometimes be accompanied with swollen gums and can cause baby discomfort. Paracetamol takes care of this and baby is fine.

No need of any kind of teething drugs, soap, bracelet and all sorts.

A lot times, mothers associate teething with stooling and this is likely to happen as a result of baby putting fingers in the mouth or picking dirts from the floor.You can curb this with teething rings and ensuring hygiene around your home and where you keep baby is top notch.
Thanks sis. Test was conducted before that conclusion was reached and am following doctor's order as well.

I hope this will do.. The 1st is her hand (those ones started coming out yesterday)
The 2nd pic is her leg.. you should see some dark marks there
It will go, penicillin ointment will take care of it. Apply it on the hand at night.

I'm not sure but this looks like a reaction from water or something..it doesnt look like sand fly..

Someone mentioned it's water but I add dettol to her water..

@giddyperson I went to the hospital when she was having itching and was given antibiotics plus cream. After that treatment, I noticed these blister stuff. I should go back again??

@comtem2001 I currently use penicillin and it does work but once I stop it.., new ones will come out.

The matter tire me. That's why I brought it here.

Good afternoon mamas and how are our LOs doing?. pls I need help. I don't eat as much as I should ( not really a food person even before pregnancy) and this affects how full my breasts should be to the extent that my DS is being starved ( he is a foodie like his dad). The formula and breastmilk doesn't fill him and this makes him cry a lot and sleep less. pls, what can I do to help my situation and also help my child.

cc zay.nie, Giddy.person, hunnies.uzie and all mamas.
Thank you.

He takes 150ml now and takes it 3-4 times daily, I don't give more than that cos I am been careful of his digestive system, so he won't go too long and not poop.

Lol, the soap she mentioned is not ingestible. It's a local soap just like any other scented or unscented soap. Just like we use Shea butter. I asked for the name to be sure it's the one I know. I grew up around the indigenous Yoruba and they have everything their own including cream, soap etc.

Please a baby has to be fed every single time they are hungry. Their job now is to eat and sleep, anything more is suffering cheesy. Just give him water everytime he takes formula so he doesn't get constipated. Give him150ml every two hours and breastfeed him in between. It can only make him fat, nothing more.
When he's four months or older you can introduce pap and cereal.

Give her time please, my baby girl have scanty hair too, which I didn't really like cos myself has a very full and thick hair.

But, there is nothing I can do about that. I started picking the hair when she was 5 months old. But the truth is, she go still get hair laslas na ni. For now, I use sheatbutter and coconut oil for the hair.

I can't kill myself, nature will continue to be nature.
That is why it is paining me o... I have a very full hair,her dad wears a mini afro so I expected my lo's hair to be very full.

They have varieties of kids or baby hair product in big supermarket. Just read the ingredients and look out for natural product in them.

Avoid using hair shampoo on her all the time, use conditioner instead. I use cantu kids conditioner. I can send you the picture if you want to see.

Must importantly use baby hair bonnet to cover your babies hair. Their hair drys out a lot and also they love to sleep on a particle position which causes their hair to cut more.

I sell newborn, infant, toddler and adult satin hair bonnet.

I started taking care of my daughter hair the moment we left the hospital. You can check us at @bows_babies on instagram to see her hair and order hair bonnet for you baby.
Thanks Sis... I know about Cantu products...will check out your Instagram page.

URGENT PLEASE!!!!
Hello mummies, please i need help.
My 18 Month old has been having difficulty pooping for a while now. He can go two days without pooping because it is usually hard. He strains, runs around the house and cry before passing it out. It’s becoming worrisome because i give him oranges everyday to ease it but it still comes out really hard and painful.
I’m suspecting cerelac or custard as the culprits but i havent been able to establish it because i have tried to take out these two from his diet but sometimes it comes out hard.
Other foods he takes are potato, noodles, pasta, rice and the likes. We hardly do swallow.
What can i do please? I need a lasting solution asap oo.


Where u able to solve it? We've been in d same shoes for close to 2months now and I'm suspecting d cerelac as well. Pls tell us what u did to sort it

150ml for 8 weeks old baby is it not too much? Sometimes, food might not be the issue. Colic might make him cry but it will soon pass. My 4 months old baby struggles to finish 120ml and we have been on breast milk and formula right from birth because just like you I didn't have appetite for food. My baby weighed 3kg at birth but is around 8kg now. Please I'm not trying to compare both babies but I feel like it might be overfeeding that is making him cry. Hope his stomach is not stiff after feeding such quantity. Please this my own personal observation. Other mums can chook mouth.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by hunniesuzie: 12:41pm On Apr 18, 2019
4 times daily is too low for a newborn to feed (except you're not counting BM feeds). Please feed him every 3-4 hours. You can supplement with BM. You can reduce quantity and increase frequency, their stomachs are still quite small

My 2 year old eats 5 times a day

He takes 150ml now and takes it 3-4 times daily, I don't give more than that cos I am been careful of his digestive system, so he won't go too long and not poop.

Pls observe her food for sometime, just to see if she may be reacting to a particular food. My dd is 3years plus and we've been having a recurrent kinda blisters since she was 6 months old. We later discovered she reacts to some certain milk products, and nuts. Since we stopped taking those we have been relieved
