Thanks dear.
The tears did all the talking for me.
I understand its a phase.
It will only get better.

Just to reassure you that it will get better. I cried everyday during the first few days till my mum came over. Pele dear.

In other news, my 2months old son has this tiny tiny rashes on his cheeks, I won't call them rashes sef, like tiny 'protrusions'. Please what can I do? Started like 2days ago and today, it has multiplied.

Cynthiabelle:
Thanks for responding.

The Clomid was prescribed by a gynaecologist. After doing HSG, TVS and HVS, I was placed on Dostinex and Clomid. I didn't self medicate. The bleeding stopped on Friday.

Ok. It will end in praise.

[quote author=Cynthiabelle post=67674987][/quote]Clomid is famous for messing up one's cycle. It also shouldn't be taken without you being monitored by a doctor. Infact it shouldn't be taken back to back. I took it once then and my dr asked me to stop to prevent hyper ovarian stimulation.

Just stop it and allow ur body rest small. Baby dust to you.

HolySteph:
Chai mama you're right. It's my MIL she won't let my baby be. Every time she's with him, she'll start forcing him to sit. My baby would just be crying. She'll always say the baby is supposed to be sitting by 3months. I just tire. She won't let me handle my child the way I want. It's causing me a lot of ish with her.

Haba make she fear God o. 3months ke?

Liftedhands:

First period after delivery is usually brutish no be person go tell you say na aunty Flo.


Try and get rest the lochia will reduce or if it's your period just Goan buy plenty pad.

The thing don go sef. I'm just tired of it jare.

zaynie:
Might be time for pullups sha
That's what one very fat baby with us uses, although he's losing weight now cos I ration his food, struck all his sugar out and make him walk around and not sit all day like he loves too.

Abeg which one be pull ups? Can I get a picture?

See ehn, una no go tire for my plenty questions o. Is it possible to get my period barely 8weeks postpartum? Because I no understand again. Lochia stopped for some days, then all of a sudden, i was getting dark red blood, very light one for some days. Now today, very bright red blood.

Abi the Lochia no dey finish ni? How can I confirm that it is period? I'm even starting to feel small small cramps sef.

Chirolechick:
Lol I don use am and mamas have answered me....hope your LO is fine and adjusting to lagos weather

My son is great. Thank you

So we finally collected our first rotavirus vaccine at shomolu. Got there b4 8am, I met just one woman, then one man came in and said they were on strike that no immunisation for today. That they would cease their licence or so if they were caught operating and that we should both go home. Much Later sha he asked us to wait, that the nurses might come.

Last last sha, they came and we left there to 11 despite being number 2 o. I'm grateful for the free rotavirus vaccine cos I saved 15k but damn, those people are SLOW.

tpapi:
Good morning, for those of us based in uyo, pls wat is d lowest price one can get a 3 bedroom flat in uyo

Location matters, as well as the state of the house. Lowest we have seen is 300-350k.

Chirolechick:
Mamas please epp na, I know we're busy, biko ejor...

@rvpbae...come and tell me the powder you rubbed on your face o, see as all the mamas are answering you, na you de reign

Lol. Na boots baby powder. You funny ghan

FexCathy:
It's tyconcepts.

Thanks.

Sansa143:
Sure dear

Thank you.

portable4real:
rvpbae....
You know what? 'it is not a matter of using sparingly.. Apply a meanigful amount of either of the Aforementioned....make sure the place is always dry after rinsing or bathing before you apply it....

Noted ma. Thanks

Onegai:
Stop the powder for now though. Keeping the place moisturised and lubricated is more protective than over drying it as well. hth

Ok ma. Thanks

Please there's a lady here that deals in coconut products can't remember her moniker but it has coconut attached to it, abeg make una help me cc her. Thanks

Onegai:
Powder is supposed to absorb excess moisture. It sounds like you're drying his skin out. Try a regular moisturising diaper cream. Pat him dry down there during changes.

I don't pat dry normally. Use wipes, air dry, powder, nappy. I'll start patting him dry now. Thanks

Sansa143:
We use vaseline blue seal too or if laziness no too much I use nycil nappy cream,Dere was a post sum months or a mnth back about using ori as barrier cream for boys.Says it affects deir blokos.

Ok. Apply vaseline at every nappy change abi?

comtem2011:
I think there are other barrier creams that have been mentioned here by other mamas.

Ok. I'll use the search button.

comtem2011:
Blue seal vaseline.

@ d bolded, I remember the nurses use to tell us then that we should not use powder as a barrier stuff for babies. That it can make them have rashes i.e urine will make the powder to stick to the thighs. I don't know how true though but I use vaseline for my boy all through.

I'll go back to vaseline then. He doesn't have rashes tho, just that area that is peeling. Thanks

comtem2011:
Blue seal vaseline.

This one wey everybody dey recommend blue seal. I honestly was using only blue seal and noticed that area was peeling, I switched to powder, after a while, it started.

Maybe I go try the vaseline again then. Thank you very much.

zimunachimdi:
Era of powder as barrier cream don pass ooo. for me,I use both Vaseline blue seal for babies and shear-butter. u can use sudocream too.

Blue seal no work. I will try sudocream or ori then.

hunniesuzie:
Iya mi powder is not barrier cream ma, it will even increase friction use vaseline (blue seal) or ori, put it inside all the crevices and folds

I was using blue seal but I noticed it started peeling, hence my using powder which stopped it for a while. Now it's peeling at that same place, just between his legs.

I'll try ori.

Mamas abeg for those who have baby boys, what do you guys used as barrier cream between the legs? You know the groin area, the two folds around the thighs.

My boy is 7weeks and we use powder but I noticed the skin there is starting to peel as at yesterday. Please help o.

nnekaike:
OK,just be there b4 7am so you can leave early.

Alright. Thanks Nne

nnekaike:
How far mama,where you able to locate the place and take the vaccine.

I can confirm that they are operating but didn't take today. My mum insisted on locating the place first and confirming b4 taking my boy there. So till Thursday.

Thanks a lot. I appreciate your help.

nnekaike:

JGracious:

Cheers

Thank you

nnekaike:

Mama sorry if I'm bothering. Are you very certain Shomolu health center is open? Cos someone helped me checked one here and they are on strike as well.

Cc JGracious

nnekaike:
Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Thank you

nnekaike:
health centers are open,we took our 10weeks vaccine at ambode health center last week,please try and be there b4 7am so you can leave early and go with a newspaper to check your baby weight, your immunization card too that's if u have collected any elsewhere.

Sisterly God bless you for this. I believe it's on Tuesdays right?

JGracious:
Its not a Nigerian thing o. The same thing happens in many other countries.

Here in Nigeria, as Ramadan approaches, a lot of abokis selling foodstuff return to the north. The number of trucks bringing food to the south also reduces hence the hike in food prices.
The market men/women also capitalize on increased demand and raise prices cos dem sabi say no how no how, people must to buy.

Ohhh no wonder tomatoes dey cost anyhow now.

JGracious:
Ummmm...can't say.
I will help branch the health centre close to my place tomorrow to ask if it affects immunisation days and give you a feedback.

better still, your host can also confirm at the nearest health centre close to where you are staying.

welcome to our Lagos...centre of excellence, traffic jam and aquatic splendor.
Do enjoy your stay.

other mamas too can help if they know.

Sister God bless you. Please help me confirm, I'll also try to confirm at my end here.

I be lagos babe o. Marriage took me out ni. I no miss here one bit, traffic was hellish yesterday.

Happy Sunday
