Just use a nailcutter, preferably a small one. If you don't have the heart then ask his dad or omugwuo people to do it.

If your reason for using sebamed is cos of the rash, honestly don't bother cos it will clear. Its new born rash and normal. Sebamed is pricey and not easily gotten.

How did I miss your BA? Ha!!! Jehovah e seun Surulady, im so happy for you my Sister. Ayo lojasi.
The sebamed I bought for my baby maintained his light skin but gave him serious rashes and fungi infection. I bought it in a big supermarket o
Sebamed is very good but scarce Now, buy at shoprite or other trustworthy supermart.

People may say there is no basis for this, but breast milk works. Put breast milk on the nails, it will rip off itself.

I have been away for long. I am sorry about that. I have some questions.

Can a baby of 22weeks take pap and milk with honey ?

My baby has lost appetite, she takes enfamil and Aptamil rice cereal, please what should I do?

Trying to introduce Aptamil to replace enfamil, how do I go about it?


Please I need suggestions on formula I can try.

NB: I suspect she's teething.

No honey for babies under 1 year
You can try other cereals for his age
There are various formulas, I have personally tried, Nan, Lactogen, peak
I used to feed my baby every 3-4 hours that made my baby gain weight then. A baby recipe class also helped my baby add weight, but that's for 6months and above.

Good afternoon mothers in the house. Kindly help me answer the following questions.
1.My 11weeks DD has dis discoloration around her nostril( lighter dan her normal skin colour with some little pinkish/reddish pigmentation) could this be *eela* ? And if Yes, will it go if left untreated? No cradle cap tho

2. Also her face complexion is lighter compare to her body and she has tiny rashes there. None on her body. I always wipe with wet clothes or wipes after her feeding session.

3. I do use breast pad due to leakages. Can I use diaper wipes to clean before and after feeding her? I've been cleaning with water but won't be that easy wen we start going out.

Thanks in advance.

Iya ibeji you are ftm and in addition a ftm to twins. I do not think you can do this by yourself . Taking care of a baby is a full time job talkless of 2 babies. You need help the only way you can properly take care of your babies is if you have full time assistance. You can get a paid help that will resume in the morning and close in the evening if you do not have any relatives to help. The person does not even have to do much for the babies but can help you with things like laundry,house cleaning etc. I really feel for you I don't have twins but I know how tough it was for me to adjust to taking care of a baby when I had my first child even though my mom was with me.

Pele dear that lack of sleep was my main issue too. I pray you get somebody soon. Try and leave house chores for now anytime the babies sleep, try and sleep at the same time. Beg hubby to manage whatever is available until you get help.

Thanks Mama. I really appreciate. Her appetite is so low that she can't finish 150ml of pap and milk or milk and cereal. What should I do?

Should u maintain 100ml and feed constantly? What is she rejects her next meal?

Is multivitamin allowed? Otherwise what can she take to revive her appetite?

Hey, strong cough and cattarh in babies is often caused by infection, take him to the hospital, they would run tests and prescribe the right antibiotics.
