For all my kids... I combine dawa, corn and joro (dunno the English name)

Guinea corn, corn, millet.

As for the groundnut, I think it's the powdered form that's added to the prepared pap.

BritneyStacy:
Mamas in the house....can we do this research together and see what we can gather...I read a medical article on reader's digest that soymilk or soya beans is not too safe for children less than a YEAR especially boys because of its high doses of estrogen!! The article specifically mentioned that it should not be used as a replacement for infant formula...
High level of estrogen present in Soya bean in boys delays and can even inhibit their sexual maturity and can lead to low sperm production in later life. High doses in baby Girls caused premature puberty .....
Tried verifying it on Google and saw articles towing that line too..

Well, I had to do a little research. The Internet is agog with conflicting studies that we don't even know what to believe again. From what I gathered, the phytoestrogen present in soybean is the culprit and the concentration is significant in soy based formula especially for under 1 babies.
Most of the articles I read reported these things you raised as concerns, growing concerns but not a proven certainty. Debates are still on going.
For me, from all I have read, soy based formula is not advised at all, but for those that add to pap, I think very moderate quantity will pass.
May God help us o

Please tell your mum before he ends up destroying your life.

No I have never and have never enjoyed any home made akara. I don't even bother any more. I simply buy outside. There's just something about commercial akara.

When something starts, if you don't stop it quickly, it will grow wings. Tell him right there in a calm voice not to ever raise his voice at you again. If he has something contrary to say to you, he can say that in private. And even in private it must be with a calm and rational voice.

I second this @ thewife306

I hail o my beautiful swaggalicious mamas.

Happy birthday dear Comtem, many happy years to you.

In Jesus name,
Oh Lord our God, we thank you for a wonderful day like this. We thank you for giving us the privilege to be counted among the living. We thank you for our children, for Your provision and protection.
We commit our kids unto Your able hands. We come against all these childhood diseases that are flying about. We pray that You will protect them. For those that are sick, we pray that Your mighty hands will rest upon them and heal them.
We come against dangers in the day and evil at night, we come against evil nannies/ househelps, we come against molesters and kidnapper. We come against domestic accident and road traffic accident especially in this 'ember' months.
Lord, we pray and commit our young ones into your care. We pray that we will be a good role model to them. That in this age of depravity, they will be a shining light to their generation. Pls order their steps for us. They shall live to fulfill their destiny IJN.
Father, provide for us their parents so that we can take good care of them. For those of us that are believing you for a breakthrough in terms of job, please surprise us beyond our expectation.
Thank you Lord for all You have been doing for us. May all glory, honour and adoration be yours now and forever. Amen.

E-Dividend allows direct crediting of investors’ bank account with their dividend. This replaces the conventional dividend payment process burdened with warrnt printing, posting, and returned unclaimed.

If I say i'm not surprised at some of you, I will be lying. We all give advice based on our experience and knowledge and sometimes no 2 experiences are the same.
As our faces are different so are our opinions. Were you all expecting just a one sided advice? We will give our opinion but the onus is on the Op to pick some and make her decision.
I'm well aware some males equally advised the Op to forget the man and move on, so for you to come here insulting ladies is very petty, unbecoming and immature. Accusing those that gave contrary opinion to yours as jealous or witches is very myopic and silly.
Live and let's live. You have given your advice, move on. The Op has made her decision so don't cry more than the 'bereaved'.
Happy sunday all

Kimoni:
When it comes to headship, why do men want the rights but not the responsibilities?

You couldn't have said it better.

I'll care for the kids and take care of the home front but Oga, provide OUR needs. Anything from me na jara

MssRose:
It dried the umbilical cord and when it dropped I was using it on her navel. so what will I use for the navel area or should I just leave it that way. Thanks for your response

Since it's healed stop using it. You can use vaseline to rehydrate the area. Cheers

MssRose:
Mamas in the house thanks for the good works. pls my baby is 11days old and I given chloxy G gel to use for her umbilical cord and when the cord fell off I continued using it on her navel. the issue now is that the navel surface is dry and hard; My mother said it's not suppose to be dry so I'm so confused. pls who else have used this product and how did you use it?

I used chloxyG briefly before I changed to methylated spirit. I have never heard of it making the navel area dry. You should discontinue If the navel is fully healed.
My grouse with chloxyG is even that it doesn't dry the umblical stump as much as methylated spirit.

I thank God that the days of manual in my life are over. I was guilty of number 4. Manual na really work

@ maaamaaa, arthemeter inj is ok. I guess it was prescribed by your doctor.

Congrats iomoge2, princessKF and other mamas that have put to birth. We thank God for safe delivery.

@zaynie, hbd to your lovely daughter Atinuke. It seems like yesterday you announced her birth alert. God's favour on her always.

Greetings to all mamas here.

Some are true while some are myths.
But really, the Oba hardly leaves the palace. It's rare.
They said whenever an Oba is crowned something strange must happen.
The day Oba EwuareII was coronated harmattan blew at least my side. I don't know if it was a coincidence o.
In Benin, the Oba has been deitified. That was how someone told me that Oba Akenzua never entered plane/car, that he will just appear at the said place. Imagine!
However, Oba gha to kpere, iseeee!

In anything you do ask yourself 'will God be happy with me, will my family be proud of me'. This was the night to my resumption for JS1 in a boarding school

Oga Op, I beg to disagree. Not everyone has a DEADLY secret. I mean the type to destroy a home.

Lolz. Very hilarious post.
But seriously wish men's aim at the toilet will be better

So Op, did you let her go?

raumdeuter:
DIdnt they send you to school just like they sent him? or are you handicapped?

Then why are house chores regarded to be my responsibility. Afterall we both work 8 to 4 daily or are women superbeings?

Abeg his money is our money and my money is my own except there's a pressing need

butanep:
You aren't married. You think it's easy to move on after having a baby for a man.

Pls i'll advise you keep quiet when you are not sure of something.
It's you I should ask whether you are married, your comment doesn't seem you are.

tatacherie:
I greet you Ma.I'm better, lost an uncle so I've been with my mum in d village.jst returned.Akela is very fine tnx.warm regards to your family
Pls is goldenmorn recommended for 9 months old?

So sorry for the loss.
I don't personally start goldenmorn till 2 years but I know people that start at 1. IMHO, I think 9 months is a bit early. Is she rejecting cerelac and co?
In other news, that prof's burial is this friday

DANZAK:
Sorry, I meant to say 3months + 2 wks and not 4 wks

It's too early to start cereals. Try another brand of formula and see if he'll accept that one. You can also try giving him in spoon and cup for now.

Tatacherie, I sight you. How have you been? Kisses to baby Akela

AlphaHandMaiden:
Hmnnn! It depends on the man oh!

Some men, have it in their heads that home chores are women's work. Only! .Help or no help.

yes its 2016 and sadly some people still think like that.

My hubby's stance is ... " if we can afford to pay someone to do it, why are we stressing ourselves"

If we had help i know there are things he helps out with that he wont bother with. And i dont blame him oh because Me sef i have my list of certain things i will not do..

Yes you are right. Many believe house chores are women's responsibility strictly.
When I didn't have a help, hubby will attempt to help but now with help, he's on phone/TV mode.

Keepshining:
See as mama still dey fresh! congratulation madam age with grace. But wait o,how come Mike dey yellow like this?

His siblings are equally very fair.

Meanwhile, Happy birthday mama, age with grace

Tojued:
Besides the lack of help has helped my marriage cos hubby assists a lot around the house, we've become a stronger team. Nowadays little things he does just burst my head anyhow hope say i no go soon start second missionary journey sha.

Lol!
True talk sha, having a Help makes hubbys lazy.

Op, that man doesn't love you one bit. If you go ahead with that wedding, very soon he will start beating you. Move on, what has happened has happened.
You can only move on if you move out of that house of co-habitation. But if you still want to go on with the marriage, all the best.
