Good idea

Maybe we should start with pap first

How do u add the egg yolk to the pap??

Is it raw egg yolk


I boil the egg first and remove the egg yolk. I add little water to dissolve it, then I add her milk and then the pap.

No pain but it's itchy when there's limited air. We were given Visiderm cream at the hospital but there seems to be little improvement

There are specific bowls for sitz bath. I think mama zaynie sells, you can check it up online. You can add dettol and salt.

We all want to copy oyinbo not knowing that most of these things are laced with chemicals and preservatives. Some oyinbo people are switching back to organic foods and leaving behind the processed ones.

Our foods are nutritious enough. Just ask your paediatrician if unsure.
This page does not discourage pap as much as it discourages mums who want to use pap to replace breastfeeding for infants. If breastmilk is not working, the next option should be formula, if you can't afford that then maybe pap, but try to switch up the pap a bit so that baby gets additional nutrients. That's the typical advice in this thread and it is correct.

I don't understand the point of you people's argument, are you just bored and wanting to start up drama. Yeah women in the olden days fed their kids pap breakfast, lunch and dinner but have you compared mortality rates, or compared the kind of diseases that kids suffered back then to what's obtainable now?

Copy oyibo ke, I've never seen anyone on this thread recommend store bought cereals over home made food. And the few times some mamas had mistakenly mixed too much stuff in their purees, they were advised to take it one or two at a time. August Secret is a Nigerian made cereal and it was one of the most recommended cereals on this thread before the price went haywire.

If you want to correct a particular contribution made by a particular mum, then by all means do, but don't start to make it seem like this foolishness you're talking about is what this thread is all about.

Is it your doctor that told you not to drink malt? Five weeks is a long time, never heard of this one. People that did CS, come and answer.

Did you introduce a new product (food, lotion, detergent, etc)? He may be allergic to an ingredient.

I don't know what your flow is like but would propose you wait till your bleeding stops. Malt has sugar so unless you don't mind having a heavy flow after consuming it, please look for natural juice instead.

pls drink abeg. Drink milk, rich tea, cereals, good food etc. Even the soft drinks if you want in moderation cos of sugar. Your body needs fuel which is good food n drinks to recover well.

Looks like impetigo.

Read up on it and some
Steps you can immediately take is to increase hygiene levels generally.

Wash and change bed sheets immediately.

Add disinfectant to his bath water.

Ensure everyone carrying him
Washes hands more.

Clean the house/floors/ surfaces with bleach and the likes

Use some
Disinfectant while washing his clothes.

Maybe some powder to relieve the itching.

Ok, but, try that penicillin ointment, it will dry it if its an infection.

Thanks. Everything you suggested is what has always been practiced since his birthday. Practically, only about 4 people carry him. Maybe we will start using disinfectant while his clothes. Thanks once again.

It looks like 'molluscum' (I might be wrong tho) but when my daughter had it even antibiotics did not dry it off o.... We used bitterleaf and drygin to rub her body (no clothes on and anywhere she slept or sat was always protected)....

Cos we discovered its contagious, through the fluid that comes out from the rash. Her dad contacted it too shortly after hers. (Same remedy was used for him too and fresh palmwine).

The Only drug we all used at that point was "extraimmune" (there's tablet and syrup).

Above all, Talk to your doctor.

Thank you so much. He's already been to the hospital but that has not helped a lot. None has contracted it in the family though, even his sister that I thought would have contracted it. We will try the bitter leaf and dry gin.
