If u have a spare room,you can dedicate that room for his play.tty to keep it clean because at that age,there is little you can do about putting things in the mouth.wash his hands often.disinfect whatever he puts in his mouth.it can be tiring but that is the price we have to pay. I don't know about the othe4 question other Sabi mamas will chook mouth

Thanks, I hope I can use hand sanitizer on him as in he's not too small.,incase he puts his hand in his mouth, is it safe?

hunniesuzie:
The first nothing much you can do, just up your hygiene

Biting or slapping is a no-no, sternly correct him when he does it (2 finger light smacking/eye contact while you say STOP firmly, please don't shout but be firm)

Or bite him back when he bites

OK ma... I'll do that n see how it goes... Thanks for the response... Tho I like the biting back idea cos that's what his dad does but I haven't been able to.. I'll just shove him till he forgets... I'll try the light Spanking now... Thanks

Good afternoon mamas... Pls how can one stop a child from picking things up from the floor to the mouth?? I've tried constant sweeping but he seems to look for the things out... Also, how can I stop him from biting? Or slapping people in the face... Abi am I disturbing myself? He's 10 months old... Pls help a ftm

@bolded.
Why not stick to natural fruits.

I don't know how to take fruits o, they will spoil in the fridge cos of light.. N ill get tired... I get ur point sha, lemme leave nutri C then

hunniesuzie:
Lol, my first baby was 4.3kg and I didn't take sweet things at all. This time I am taking all the sweet things, if heaven like make e fall

Point is, it may not change anything. Avoid sweet things because you want to eat healthy for baby.

NutriC ati Coke, same ni. Just drink water

I know jare... Just that long throat is real

Hello bumpy mamas, hope we are having a nice day? I'm a STM, first baby was 4.7kg...dont want a repeat so I'm staying clear of sugar n stuffs but my appetite for these things are on an over drive... So I resorted to taking just nutri C drink... I hope I'm still safe... I'm just 14 wks gone but the scare is real... Any tips anyone? I'll be waiting pls..

My 11 months old wakes up to 3 times to eat pap or cereal including boobs
I don't think you have any issue ma'am

Tnx for the consolation... Lol... Tis well

PraisesG:
If he isn't underweight,no problem. You have signed off night sleep, with motherhood.

Very annoying yet na slap n shout dey wake me for morning... Wheeew

babythug:
It's common place with many babies of his age

what you can do is begin to work out a routine to encourage him to do so. For eg

1. When he wakes up don't turn on the light or engage in any "talking". Use torchlight if need be.
2. Check diapers and give milk or water.
3. As long as he can't fall off the sleeping area let him be until he sleeps off. You may back him as well
4. You can try increasing the quantity of his dinner/supper or giving an extra bottle of milk when he's in bed

I don't turn on the light, just put breast in his mouth n he sleeps after a while... Any attempt to change Diaper na vigil o... Thnx for the tips though... He doesnt take milk from bottle at all n I tried water, tea n co but he didn't take while I was trying to wean him... Will kuku ship him to my folks to wean next week

Happy sallah to you all... Hope we are enjoying our holidays with our LOs....pls I want to know if it's normal for a baby of almost 10 months to not still be sleeping through the night at this stage.... He's not slept thru the night more than 2 times since he was born... Is it normal or do I need to see a paed..... Thanks mama... He eats before sleeping o so its not hunger that's waking him up... He wakes minimum of two times

tatacherie:
Shuoo! See wahala o na their pregnancy? As long you don't have any medical challenge pls enjoy your new gift. This is what moms in the waiting are praying for.
That a new baby is coming unplanned is non of their business. Or are you scared of getting sacked cos you're pregnant? Pls stop getting yourself worked up. Cross your mind God will see you through and you'll birth a healthy baby in due time

Its good you're stopping d girdle right away. Let them talk for all they care but don't give a F. Las las you'll have one big happy family that will love and cherish you tommorow. So flaunt your pregnancy wella
Congratulations!!!

LOL... Thanks mama

Awesomemama:
Congrats teamie
Please stop the girdle, I wonder how you manage to stay comfortable with it cause I feel uncomfortable when I wear something tight, Las Las you can't hide it for so long cause they'll still find out in the end.
Heard breastfeeding cause contractions too, don't know how true.

Yea yea, I heard about the contractions but my doc said it was ok to keep breastfeeding... He also okayed the girdle thingy... I'll stop soon sha... Just trying to get used to it

miraclefromGod:
Girdle could be the reason, I don't know why you are using it but you need to stop it right away it is not safe for the baby...

It's cos my tommy didn't go back cos of the cs... So I'm used to the girdle by now, stopping it now, people woll just be looking at me wan kain... Besides, I asked the doctor n he said it was OK to keep wearing it as long as I'm comfortable... Don't know how true though.. These doctors can be controversial in their opinions...

Good evening honorable members.... I'm back again o... I'm team February for now... Cappo kindly register me... Feb 26th...biko welcome me... I saw blood last night though, went this morning n baby is fine.. All is well... Dont know what I can do to ensure It doesn't happen again... I have a nursing 9month old who I plan to wean at 10 months... Could that be why? Or could it be the coflin syrup I took? Like I'm just wondering n worrying... What can I use to treat cough then so my baby doesn't have it? I'm already showing so I'm using girdle cos of world pipo in my office... Could that also be the reason... Pls don't judge me, u won't understsnd... I'm patiently waiting for some sort of response n solace here...

hunniesuzie:
Just give water. Some people give tea but I didn't want to be making night tea for ever and ever (Tea is Milo and formula pls)

Search the thread for weaning tips, it's a topic that has been extensively discussed

Pele on the MS and congrats on the baby on the way, go and register on Preggy thread

I dint know it had been discussed, ill search now... I've collected my plot of land on there already... Tnx for the response

rvpbae:
You really do not need to wean because you are preggos. You can continue except you can't meet up with the physical and mental demands or medical reasons, then it is fine. I weaned my 11months old with just water o although the first night was tough, i fed solids twice and ended up backing him . I did this cos when my sister wanted to wean my niece, she used juices and the likes and this girl would wake twice every night, it became an habit cos of juice. My son wakes once, takes his water and back to sleep. Sometimes he doesn't wake at all.

And yes he is young for tea and juices. I would suggest water too or keep trying his formula.l

I'm weaning cos doc said to, not like there's a particular reason sha.. Gave tea last night, he dinnor take... I will kukuma give water then... Tnx for responding

Stmema:

Good evening people of God... Pls o, how do I stop my DS of 8 months from biting my breast n anything bitable?he only stops if I use my thumb n index finger to press his cheek.... Also, I want to wean gradually, how do I go about it pls

Zehava:
8 months post CS, isn't it too early? My doctor advised at least 15 months post CS. But then, people are different and the way our body heal is different too. No, breastfeeding won't affect the pregnancy.

I feel it's early too but it totally wasnt planned.... I forgot to take my pills n boom,im here... Removing it isn't an option that's y I'm seeking advise on my best alternatives

Good evening sabi mamas...
I'm back on my second missionary journey but I have a few concerns.... My baby is just 8 months, won't breastfeeding affect the pregnancy? I delivered through cs, am I safe to go again? Pls help me, I'm worried!!

19CannyMum:
Your baby's weight is ideal. He is around same weight percentile (97th) since birth. You should only be worried if there's a drastic change in percentile.

Thanks ma'am... I appreciate your help

ebonychic18:
calm down momma your baby is doing just fine. He isn't over weight for a baby that was born big. He actually needs as much as he can get now. By the time he starts walking and getting more active he will shed a little. Even though my 3rd baby didn't shed she's 20 months old now and weighs 21kg she weighed 4.7kg at birth but she's so active, healthy and bubbly. Also check the genes, dad, mom, grand parents are they on the big side? My 2 other babies born big, were big as toddlers but they've shed all the baby fat now with schooling etc

Thank you ma... I appreciate your response, we are not really on the big side so I guess he'll shed it

FloraEC:
His weight is normal. My boy weighed 10kg at 6m and was born 3kg. Don't bother and feed my boy

Thanks ma... That's a relief

Chinnybaby99:
your baby's weight is ok. Please mothers join ask the paedetrician on fb

Thanks mama, I'm on the group already

Good day mums n dad's.. Its about my DS ideal weight... He was born big 4.7kg but now he's about 10.4kg at 7MO(he'll be 8 next week)... I checked the chat n it said over weight n another even said obese... I'm abit worried... Dunno if u should cut down on the frequency of his food.... He eats every 3 hours asides breastmilk which he takes on demand.... N he eats mostly cereal n pap... Home made food, not so much cos of pepper so maybe 4to 5 spoons n that's it... Am I worried for nothing? Or is there something that can be done about it.... Pls do not ignore if u know.... Thanks
