Thanks to all mamas who responded to my questions. I ll follow ur inputs.

Kimoni:
Pls don't make them swallow it even though children's toothpaste contains less fluoride. I put a bean size on the brush and clean their teeth, then encourage them to spill it out.

It's not easy potty training a child when one is not with them all day. But getting a very colorful potty for my LOs sort of motivated them to use the potty.

Abeg how do u encourage a 10-12month old to spit out?

Happy new month beautiful mamas.
Gocare, wonderful birth story. Thank God for His mercies. Pls just to clarify, was it scan d Dr was doing all those tyms u were in labour or he was using an instrument(sonicaid) to monitor ur LOs heartbeat?
@missmalachi, oda mamas HV said it. Pls o, na marriage u dey no b boyfriends girlfriend rlshp. U were wrong deleting dh, no b like DAT o. Abeg add d guy bk. He too wasn't entirely wrong in his actions. Hear him out. Pray for wisdom to handle ur in laws. I pray this dispute makes ur rlshp wt ur dh stronger.

zaynie:
She lost her twins at 20-something weeks and got pregnant 10 weeks later.

Thank u for explaining. how u dey?

@ mamas, pls how do u brush ur Los teeth? Is it to just use d paste to brush their teeth and they swallow it, u gv dem water. Dats all ba?
Secondly, I m having difficulty potty training my 18month old. I guess I started late. BT wen I started initially, he ll just sit for a few seconds, get up and carry d potty. Nw, its difficult cos in d mornings I don't HV DAT tym as I prepare him for school and myself for work. Any input, abi mk I just wait it out?

Pls mamas help my 2mons old baby always breaths noisily as if she has catarrh or somfin is blockin d nose bt no catarrh. I hv gon to hopsital is still dia after givin flu j. Its been long I noticed dis

Ur baby s fyn since he doesnt hv active catarrh and d symptom didnt just start. As he develops, his breathing ll become "clearer"

dunnybaby26:
Doc wt of babies dt don't tolerate ds milk,I really want 2 give my tod of 20 mnths ds milk bt he stools seriously,I changed frm peak 123 to cow nd gate 123 bt d stooling increased,I ws asked 2 stop nd d stooling stopped.I give him Dano adult milk now wt no prob.any advise?

Mama since d Dano s working for u, i wld say continue wt it then. Let him get d oda nutrients frm oda sources as one oda mama said.

Arebi:
Good day mothers in the house. Pls my 3weeks old baby has this soft spot in the middle of his head. I know about the front and back soft spot but this one in the middle is getting me worried.My mum said his head is open and the baby is reducing in weight despite his huge appetite for food. Pls mothers what should i do?

Mama, it is very very normal. Ur baby's head isnt 'open' biko. D spot will close as he develops. 3wks is still small na. Wot does he weigh nw? How do u kno he s loosing weight?

tatacherie:
@ Nurse kaffy Really?was thinking shaving off and bathing it everyday would hv significance
Thanks a lot Ma'am for ur swift response.dats wat Dr said too,paracetamol for 3 days.I really need a longlasring solution.im takin rest.thanks once more.Hope princess is doing great

Sm1 said kpekus too wld gv u relief frm d headache. Try it out and gv us feedback.

beedam:
Somebody should please teach me how to address an elderly woman passing her boundary?

2016 ke? When we still have whole 5months left in 2015.

. Na just roll call to kno ourselves na
. We never mk noise teach team july na. u kno wen they start their own? Bt na 4months remain for 2015 o nt 5.

Its strange joor, for a man to back his child whether we agree or not.The man was probably seeking attention which he has got. Every1 applauding him shld also applaud d many men dat carry their babies on their shoulders or arms. So this man is nw such a loving father because he backed his baby? Story. Me, I wont even let my hubby back our son outside jare. He shld rather carry him or hold him while he walks.

hotmum:
Mamas, who has or is using Complan, Complan beverages and Horlicks for her baby frm 12mths. Would like to know the benefits.
And would there be need for toddler milk, as i hear babies can take adult/cow milk from 12mths.
I anticipate ur responses oooo

Babies dont start adult milk until 3yrs. Dats y u hv peak 123, NAN3(1-3yrs)etc. I wldnnt supplement my baby's milk for complan.

Mk i modify d roll call. No worry team august no go pursue us, na just to kno ourselves.

Dr Tchiwinnie, neva knew uv port to dis thread. And we're team mates.
#teamjanuaryrocks#

This na my no 1 thread for NL o.

fosterkid:
i have lost two after my first child, all my doc said was i should wait till when i can do a scan then we know the next step,im just so scared because the last one was at five weeks and i do not know why im having cramps

I didnt read ur initial post, bt if u re spotting/havinng cramps @5wks, then u sure need bedrest. Leave kpekus too for nw. I dont kno y ur dr s hesitant wt d progesterone considering ur previous history. At wot GA does he want u to do a scan.
Very importantly, be positive, keep praying for ur lo. Declare wot u want, and God ll grant ur desires. All d best!

Okk o, for those wey ansa roll call una do well o.

Odas answer o.
D mama dat complained of yellowish discharge, its good to also register wt a private hospital o, cos of these unpredictable strike in govt hsptls. Do d HVS as soon as u can, bt most vag pessaries and cream are safe since they re nt systemic.

Wow, wow! Congrats proudmum38 and lala4sure. God bless ur los. Team July una do well o.
Oya team August mk una tk rollcall. Who's first?
