If it's a really bad rash, i apply the baby tribotan, and leave the baby without diapers for most of the day. But if it's just a small rash then i mix with small vaseline before I put the diaper on her.

Thank-you for the response

it's normal, anytime she is having it, just give breast. With time it will reduce. It's so frequent in newborn babies.

I've been having the same issue too. My baby poops like once in a week, and pooping day is usually a lot of drama and seems painful. My theory is that the poo loses most of its water in the body due to its long stay. I tried changing diet but the only thing that worked was taking lots of mangoes, but that one even gave him watery, then green stool so I gave up. I've just decided to take it as something he'd outgrow. It didn't happen with my DD cuz despite being EBF, she pooped everyday sometimes more than once a day and it's the same foods I'm still eating.

Nla or eela I believe is baby rash. Mama's here advised using one flower like that for it(have forgotten the name)
Ọbọ is a boil that spreads when it burst and the water touch another dry area of the skin. You can use methylated spirit to burst the boil and clean the surface to avoid spreading. Apply baby tribotan or sudocrem or any other baby friendly products.

Hello Mothers,
Has anyone ever experienced of heard of Microfilaria in a 10 mths old, and how it was managed.
The baby-sitter I brought had this Microfilaria (The blood tests I did, before letting her into my home did not reveal this).
It is said to be like an infection of tiny worms swimming in the blood, and causing severe itching. Especially at night.
I sent her home to treat herself immediately I found out after a failed attempt to treat her from scratching body, and then my baby started to fall ill frequently. Against the doctor's advice, I went for a lab test on her, and Microfilaria was found.
It causes her to itch severely, and a rash that is spreading from her armpit to her stomach, thighs, legs and hands.
The hospital I use opened up that they do not know what to administer, I left there and went to another one; they administered a combination drug Albendazole and DEC (FOR 14 DAYS).
This is the third day, and the rash/itching seem to be increasing.
I just hope I can find some form of head way here.

That flaws my theory then grin. Its actually an issue especially since it's daily. What did you change your diet to? People usually recommend eating more fruits and vegetables, esp pawpaw. And forsaking bread and other flour-based products.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph. I just googled it and seems the medicine they gave you is what's used to treat it. Try complete it first cuz some ailments get worse before they get better. If this doesn't work, Please take her to a general hospital.

There's no Federal High Court at Ikeja, only a State High Court. Anybody who doesn't want to to scammed should just walk INTO the Court premises and ask for the Court registry. When you get to the registry u can then ask for where to sign oath.

How many times a day do you clean? You may need to go back to the hospital.

Please mama what do I use apart from agnessia powder for my baby diaper rash it looks pinkish raw and itchy.whenever I remove her diaper she starts scratching it seriously and crying

Try to air your baby's bum for 30mins-1hr daily.
Make sure diaper is changed as soon as it gets soiled i.e. dont leave it on for too long.
Make use of baby tribotan for the rash.
Instead of agnesia powder, i will suggest diaper/barrier creams such as sudocrem, zin&castor oil, blue seal vaseline and the likes
