HI Mummies, my son of 1 year and 4 months is have this redness in his eyes coupled with mucous.. Often times the eyes itch him and they are not clear... Please what is responsible for this?

Bacteria infection in the eye. Take him to the pharmacy , they will give him eye drop that will clear it though some mums swear by breastmilk but I heard it’s not advisable because breasymilk attracts micro organisms to the eyes

My new born had it while in the hospital.mupirisin cream was prescribed n it worked like magic.its a bacterias infection tho

Thanks mama...the discharge has reduced tho it’s still coming out small small, I’ll try your remedy. As for the malaria, we were seen by a paed m tested mal 1+...he said we shouldn’t ignore it since she’s so small . Gave her quinine bfr it didn’t work, went for a repeat, it was still positive so I was given another one. Haven’t gone back cos the temp has gone. Thanks for the reply

Good day sabi mamas...pls i would like to know what to use for my almost 2 month old DD. She was having very mild discharge bfr I took her to see a doc as she was running temp. He gave malaria drugs n eye drops for the eyes.simce I started using it, the discharge has increased.should I stop it or is that how it works...I’ve only used it twice.someone suggested breastmilk but I’ve already started the drops. Can I switch?

angeltolly:


Have you confirmed through SB test that it has reduced or you are sensing it should have reduced? Confirm that first. Meanwhile, if you are jaundice is out of the way, am not sure there's much to worry about, baby is still following her routine in the tummy but please if it bothers you much, see a pediatrician.

We did the SB bfr discharge and it was low enough for us to be discharged though not completely gone...maybe I should just go to c a doc

Thank you...I thought as much sha,lemme kuku Ignore since it’s not making her cry

It was a battle of life and death but the Lord won.
My second son made his grand entrance on 18th Feb weighing 4.7kg through emergency CS when I couldn't push him out during my vbac journey.

I did all the diet and exercise and scans failed me that I was carrying small baby but God did not fail me.

6 months or so. The scars don't show up fast like that i guess. Because for my son ut took a while too. Was even worry when i saw something like boil way after i have forgotten we took bcg sef. But you might want to ask those nurses on your next appointment to be sure

Thanks mama....just asked goggle n it said 6 weeks.

Good evening sabi mamas...pls at what point should one be worried that the bcg didn’t scar? My DD had her bcg last week Friday and this is the 5th day after,still no scar. Should I take her back for vaccinations or wait for how long? Tnx mama

BS Alert
Ok so basically there’s not much to tell considering it’s ELCS.given my big baby history n short inter pregnancy time,I was scheduled for 37 wks plus . Came into hospital on Thursday n prepared for Friday...so this pregnancy was a verrrrey emotional one. I was touchy, always crying, hyper sensitive n almost always depressed so on Wednesday night, was dreaming theatre up n down. Hubby wasn’t in town to calm me down, Thursday night, couldn’t sleep...was just crying up n down n accusing hubby for no reason as if I wanted him to stay with me in the ward in a general hospital...prayed after plenty cry n slept. Friday morning, came to take history n by 9, I was wheeled into theatre....so cos my last epidural failed, I was afraid this would fail again but they kept telling me it’s my mind, I should work on...10:06 surgery started n these rascals didn’t wait for me to say the needle they were using to check the effect of the epidural was not paining Me.... I insisted it was pain o, dey said it’s a lie that if it’s pain, I should move my leg,,,, I couldn’t o but me I sha knew what pain is...last last, they said my wahala was too much I guess so they gave me something not to knock me off totally but to make me sleep....I refused to sleep o, my eyes were heavy but u see fear? Na bad thing!!was just crying there not from pain o but from only God knows...last last sha, they were done n I could breathe down...baby came out 10:15 n they were done by 10:56 or there about, it sha lasted 45mins .... so u know how they say ppl exchange babies, I was worried about that too so I first looked for the sex of the baby, by the time I say make I look face, them don Carry am comot!choi, I almost shouted I’m not done but just kept mum n let them go...couldn’t help but notice the hair ....full n lush...me wey no get hair....funny thin is during my prayers the day bfr , I prayed again for full hair, fair baby ,no jaundice or anomaly cos I didn’t take my routine drugs up to half the whole time...n God answered �
Ok so story don long reach....didn’t know having a female would make me this happy ....she’s so gorgeous n pink!!!! My heart is full of joy n I’m soooo glad we didn’t terminate this unplanned but needed pregnancy. Recall I took in at 7months n DS is hyper but God came through....I juts trust him for the days ahead sha....It will always always end in praise!!!

Good morning, please my one and one month old baby is not eating well, what can I give to him to make him eat well?

Multivitamin syrup...I used MIM...worked like magic

comtem2011:
I use kid toothbrush for her, and since then, her tongue is no longer coated and mouth doesn't smell too.

Though the tooth brush is thrice weekly and I use cottonwood 4times weekly. Meaning I normally alternate.

But brushing time is always a fighting time. The way she will scream, you will think they are cutting her flesh ni.

So any baby brush will do shey? I was lookin for one with age but couldn’t find...I’ll just keep using d one I have n alternate too...Tnx mana

comtem2011:
If I dare roll anything on my finger ad put in Madam's mouth, na so so clip she dey clip my finger.

Chai, children.

Same here,I just jejely remove my hand bfr it cuts into two.but how do u now do it coz I don’t like the smell from his mouth in the last two days...is there another way?the toothbrush makes his gum bleed n the soft brush I put on my finger isn’t doing justice

miraclebaby:
Wow. That's a very tight schedule. Is there no way the school can accept doctors report for you to write ahead or later? Coughing up 350k isn't beans. May God's will be done dear. Safe delivery in advance

miraclebaby:
God is your strength. Why not try to see if your doc can move you to next day or 2nd day after exams? Or a week before your exams? Sometimes the lecturers insist except sth comes up so just try and see what your doc can do.

Thanks but the exam will last 2 weeks n ELCS is booked for 38 weeks...so there’s really no way around it....I’ve accepted my fate sha cos even if dem move am to March, dunno how healed I’ll be to even prepare or write
Thanks for responding tho
