Good evening our dear mamas in the house. My son had measles at 6months 2weeks. He is 9months now. Will he still take the 9months measles immunization? May God keep n bless our los.

yes, u can take for d 9 month immunization, if u ar in doubt u can tell dem to be sure, Since it has gone, am sure he shd be able to take it...

GoodKay:
Thanks all 4 ur responses
@dunnybaby26 yes I always make sure I complete d dosage. I just got honey some days back and started giving him so il watch how it goes.

@ FINA4804, I currently give him the one as from 12 months (honey wheat with milk). Occasionally I still give him mixed fruits with wheat & milk. I think that one is from 8 months or so. I guess I'll need to check well what's really causing d cough. Or cud it be d cerelac? I doubt though.

@Rashomo il try and start giving the honey and warm water more frequently as i give honey only once a while. Was feeling skeptical to give it dat often because of its sweetness.

u knw honey is natural, once u get d original... so it cant give pile or jedijedi...dont expose him too

Hello great mothers.. my 14 month old has had this cough for 2 months now and it disturbs at night. He wakes up from sleep coughing and vomits thereafter. I've used several antibiotics which reduces it but it increases again some days after I stop d antibiotics. I boil he's drinking water and he takes jus cerelac, iindome, some swallow, Caprisonne but not always so I don't think it has to do with what he's eating. I've given him so many bottles of cough syrups which never works until d doc said I shud stop it. What native or herbal can I use 4 him as am tired of antibiotics it's becoming too much for he's tender body. Pls I need help on any known native or herbal combinations that work and is not harmful to him. I've also been treating a very stubborn malaria every month now that even quinine cannot stop. God help mothers. It is well. Pls I need ur response. Thanks in advance.

honey iz very gud wit warm water, u give it frequently , am sure u wil see changes...

shndy:
D variety of clothing u see depends on the PEP store u go to. But the fact still remains that the products are substandard even the shoes.
Now this doesn't mean u cant use it for long, its all in how frequently its worn n wash.

really, dey ar always substandard, I waz at deir store around Tinubu, buh couldnt c any beta polos for my 2 years, early dis month i was at deir shop at bode thomas to get birthday dress for my neighbor baby, i had to leave for lawanson...

I know. piriton expectorant for adults.

thanks

shndy:
Most cough syrup in naija will make you and your baby drowsy cos of the piriton in it. Av never used a cough drop but Av used inhaler and paracetamol /ibuprofen and Av always been relieved. U can buy sm menthol sweet too. Heard nursing moms shd stay off honey too, dunno if its true sha

thanks madam shndy

MiracleMum:
If you shop at PEP, just have in mind the clothes wont last. It will wash out even before baby out-grows them. You can get house clothes from them and get outing clothes from Balogun market since you're on the Island. ( I buy soft trousers my daughter wears in the creche from PEP at 500 naira each, its a good bargain for house clothes).
Just walk close to UBA (Balogun market) you will see ladies holding complimentary cards for baby clothes shop - cajole one to direct you and don't allow her take you there herself because the shop owner will add an amount to everything you buy to settle the lady latter. There you get to see varieties of classy quality clothes.

u ar very corect, deir product is usually substandard to me...

omoerelu1:
piriton cough expectorant. 10mls two times daily. but it is drwosy. how old is your baby?

hajarahbadmus:

ok thanks..barka jummat to u all

hajarahbadmus:
@miracle mum, I suggest wht ever fruits u want to puree for ur lo shld b tried n out as snack first to c how much she likes it b4 pureeing. it can b really painful after all d stress and she decides its play time instead of eating. my baby prefers fruits as snack. he can finish a whole mashed avocado without milk. he prefers banana pureed and he takes apple like snack. infact his every day snacks are apple nd watermelon. its d red apple because its softer so he uses his gums to bite on it. im usually careful so he doesnt get to bite a big chunk in order not to get choked. For the water melon, i use my hands to squeeze the juice in his mouth and i put the mashed fruit in his mouth after. i do this everyday whn i get back from school by 6pm. its a routine. whenever I feel its time to get messy, I give avocado just for the fun of it nd he enjoys it cos he has d opportunity to feed his head nd nose with it so they dnt feel left out. I gv oranges too like every 2days nd no it doesnt purge my lo. I also gv plum fruits. he sucks on it. I personally prefer to gv fruits as snacks cos it saves time nd they can take it whnever u r taking it. besides fruit puree no dey belleful by lo. whn amala nd ewedu dey there. mashed potatoes with butter, crayfish nd titus fish. may God bless our los and crown our efforts

ma, hw old is ur baby..thanks for d info

And so yesterday afternoon I was feeling sleepy,(as person wey don chop bellefull) I carried my baby to the bed. I tried forcing him to sleep he refused, he was just playing and holding the window.

I noticed the way he positioned his bum bum so I knew he was pooing. my intention was poo quick so can change you before I sleep.

Before then, I checked my phone that I was charging on the bed it was 98%, i told myself it will be fully charged by the time I'm done changing him.

The next thing was a shout abi cry from my baby, I opened my eyes, I realised I had slept off. I looked at him and wondered why he was crying profusely. Then, I noticed my phone wasn't plugged to the charging port again. I deduced that he put the cord in his mouth and he was shocked.

Even the cord's mouth was burnt(black) and didn't work again

So I want to thank God that nothing happened to him.

Mothers pls let us be very careful oo.

wow. dats serios oo..pls oo.lets really be careful
