Apeshy101:
I think it's high time the Supreme Pontiff listen to Bishops and allow priests to marry.

Does marriage stops one from spreading the gospel?

A better question is - Must you be a Catholic priest to spread the gospel...?
You know their rules, but no, you must go there, so you can default and say that the church is this and that....

drexx:
Please I want to use just a waist coat for the my wedding cos I am not always comfortable with a blazers suit. Pls is it out of place

The jacket adds some formality to the ceremony and can easily be ditched, immediately after.
Nothing really, can ever be out of place though, so long as you're comfortable and it's your event, do you hun.

Lots of suits come with waistcoats anyway, so you may as well just buy one of those and see if your mind changes for whatever reason (maybe looking different from the groomsmen) as the day draws closer....

Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.

Please if you've done the test and it's confirmed you have malaria treat it, it's not good for the baby.
But please confirm the drugs/injections to take from your doctor, not all drugs are safe in pregnancy depending on how far gone you are.
Fansidar is anti malaria, to prevent malaria. Not for the treatment of malaria
HnH bumping to us all.

Mama, let's not over think things. They are all the same. Antimalarials prevent...treat...cure malaria. Sulfadoxine/pyrimethamine/Fansidar cures malaria.

Everyone is entitled to visit a doc in person anyways.

Thanks for the input.I dont know what the pus cells means and the culture result is yet to be out.This means I need to work on myself and i really don't know what else to do again.Maybe I should start treating infection again or just go for hsg once and for all.

Are you ovulating?

And I don't mean whether you feel this and that every month or you see this color of that or that your period comes every particular date. Noo...

Have you monitored and actually saw from the investigation, that a dominant egg got released?

Good morning great mothers pls those of us that used cabbage in breast during weaning pls how long am I to use it please no waka pass

Forget that procedure. Express the milk by hand intermittently, especially whenever it's full to the point of hurting. Milk production slows down and halts totally, within two-three days. Do this right and you won't even experience engorgement.

Herroy:
Good job@OP.
Regarding the feeding part, I would not advise breastfeeding your baby whilst lying down or sleeping. This is because the breast can mistakingly cover the infant's nose (suffocation).. God forbid bad things.
I would advise the nursing mother to sit resting her back on pillows resting on the wall..that way you could also doze slightly.. yes, it is not easy..truth is once you become a mother, you can no longer afford to sleep deeply, you have to be alert especially to the baby. May God strengthen all expecting and nursing mums.

It's what everyone speculates, but we don't know anyone who knows anyone that knows anyone, that has had the experience. The breast typically relaxes against the bed in this side lying position. So unless the mother has silicon round balloons for breasts, being very bubbly round and full to cover the nose of her infant is highly improbable.

I'm even more concerned with whether swallowing will be made into an awkward feat for the baby.

My guess though is that they always turn out just fine.

I am sure you read the part where I said what works for A may not work for B!

There are Nigerians that live in areas with great road networks and they use strollers for their kids. Some even come to the shopping malls with the strollers. All these things depends on your pocket finally. If you want to splurge on your baby, why should anyone else be bothered about it?

I bought a cot. Graco pack and play. It can be collapsed and easy to travel with as it's quite portable. It came in veeeery handy. Especially when we had guests who wanted to carry baby at all cost. I put my son in there, put the mosquito net down and tell them to greet him from there. It prevented people carrying him unnecessarily. My son also napped there during the day in the living room while I rested in the room. If he cried for food, my mil would pick him up, feed, burp, and return him there. Only reason why we didnt use it for long was cos my son is tall and he outgrew it fast.
Only thing we changed was the mattress. We measured it and got a custom waterproof mattress.
We packed it up and put it in the bag that was added to the carton and we will be using it for this second baby too.

What works for A may not work for B.
You may need to try it out first to see if it works for you.

I once visited a friend who was gifted (thank God) a baby stroller, in her sandy area of a Nigerian neighbourhood. Now, that I think about it, the stroller did the exact same job of this cot you describe and a pinch, in comparison to what the portable beds with nets do, that most mums buy. The baby stayed in the stroller in the living area, while visitors cooed at him too. The stroller also had a mosquito net as does a cot and a portable bed.

Now, would you say it didn't work for her? But would it be nice to advise other first time mums, especially in Nigeria, to go for it? Reaaaally?

First time mums tend to go all out when it comes to shopping for baby and when they eventually realize that they may have overdone it, what choice would they have but to exert their inner creativeness with what they really could do without? Bassinets...changing tables..cots....are a few of the ridiculously impractical stuff that have better and lasting substitutes.

Good morning mamas, pls is it advisable to buy a baby cot. So many people have told me it's a waste of money, that they don't sleep in it. What do you guys think? I am thinking getting those small foldable beds with mosquito nets though so baby can co sleep with me and hubby.

Don't. Even as a gift, I wouldn't advise you to accept. Except you have a lot of garage space and just want to be known for stashing baby stuff. Babies don't sleep for long periods, so you are stuck with having to take them out every now and again and it's worse when they can only sleep with a nipple to their lips... Imagine what you'd do then...

Just don't.

Thank you ma am seriously looking for one now I hope and pray I get a God fearing one...I’ve not felt healthy since I gave birth no sleep both day and night God Am not complaining but pls send a helper to me

This is the problem with our mums / relatives these days coming for omugwo. They seem not to know the things that are needed most from them. You may even clean the entire roof and foundation of the house, but if you are not helping to hold the baby, so the mum can catch some sleep, especially in the days/weeks following delivery, then you relatively are of no use to the mum.
Ndo, mama I feel your pain. Perhaps you should point out to this helper that this is what you'd cherish of her to do the most?

Those ones that the bloggers over hype, you got first class, it is over hype, you work in Microsoft, it is over hype, you work in a robotics center, in Nigeria, it kinda of genius, this things are normal stuff but in Nigeria, it is remarkable.

If Nigerian Phd Know their Onions, how come there is no invention from any of them

Phd is all about research that can bring new inventions like new drugs, new sceintific way of doing things etc but how come we see nothiing here in Nigeria.

Interestingly, these things are not normal stuff, as you term them, overseas. If you graduate with a first, you're celebrated abroad. If you work in Microsoft, it's actually a big deal...even as a janitor, oh yes. You work in a centre for robotics? Believe me you, you're up there! More white people do odd jobs than you think, when compared to the ones in respectable job roles, but it is certainly not enough to starkly juxtapose our lifestyle with theirs.

mention 5 Nigerian Phd Researchers that has invented something in the last 2 years

The question is are we even ready to accept that a Nigerian can come up with anything? Surely, you heard with me when they said that someone came up with a cure for Aids and Asthma. Were we not part of those that just turned up their noses and tuned to the next channel? What about the lady that was geovisualizing minerals for us? Do you even know her name? There're certainly geniuses hiding away and not bothering to reach or exhibit full potential, for fear that they just might not get the kind of reception, that they deserve. Philip Emeguali managed to register in our heads I'm sure, because he did all he did, outside Nigeria.

It's time we begin to give priority by really listening to and supporting
our own and stop trying to forcefully fit into the white man's society, that barely acknowledges us.

Some MUST flow back out, no two ways about that one. Unless the quantity is small and it's viscosity is high, it then takes a longer time to come out, making them not notice when it does...but like you said, it can stick up there in crevices for more than a day. You see, when conception is not forthcoming, it's easier to begin to imagine things that might be conspiring against you. Sperm leakage, no visible cervical mucus..blah blah...are inconsequentialities that women have gone on to conceive multiples with. Worse yet, is that some of us trust every belief an aged person relays...imagine her thinking that it is pathological!

We'll finish discussing this now and yet come back in two months to another person having the same worry.
rvpbae:


My sister i really have same concerns too. Sperm is fluid and i think excesses it will definitely flow out, i mean law of gravity. When i have se.x, sperm always always flow out, it lasts for like 2 days sometimes, i have always had that and i took it as a normal thing.

I just didnt want to say anything so it wont be as if i am undermining people's ' problems'. I was a regular her in 2017 when i was ttc-ing and now I'm almost due with my second.

I have used that before. It only fades and then reappears later. I think it needs to be killed from inside my body cos it's all over my body.

How do you take your antifungal drugs? You just don't take 20mg for five or seven days and think that's it. You'd only be wasting your time. There're specific regimens for specific histories and provisional or actual diagnoses. E.g..for yeast, one should go with at least, __tabs of 200mg __, every four days.

Research....run tests...see a doctor.

Honestly, if you want people to take you seriously as a blogger or anything at all in a public space, you're going to have to hold a tight reign on your temper and mind what you say. You'll learn that people will often misunderstand, misinterprete or disagree completely with what you put out there and would not necessarily do these in a respectful fashion. Rather than letting emotional fireworks fly when you should be befriending people, let things slide completely or press pulse on your initial impulse reaction and simply accept feedbacks, that just might help you find resolutions to making everyone happy.
