@vicki: got d book. Thanks.

really? You're welcome. I was sent a mail that d email address wasn't valid

jboixxx:
Yeah; don't know your baby's age though, but mine is 11mth+ & he's never tasted sugar. There's no need adding sugar to their meal especially when formula has been added. You can check this out.

he's 6 months+
tnx for d link.

Congratulations!
For your IVs, there are different types. as cheap as #50/piece to as much as #800/pc so it depends on how classy u want it to look. it's usually sold in packs of 50s and 100s.

200k for souvenirs is very okay depending on the quantity you want to buy. suggestions include: personalised jotters/daily to-do, carry bags & folders, personalized chocolate wraps, key holders with ur pics, umbrellas, decanters, etc

firstimer, from my experience, its better LO sleeps wt either AC or fan. LO wil sleep better. fresh air is good but as long as ur child sweats, dere wil b rashes. initially, I was cover cover mama inside heat o bt after he got a bout of rashes, no one taught me.
BUT make sure d temperature of d AC is cool nt cold. I usually put mine btwn 22 to 26 & his head stays covered while he's fully kitted in bodysuit. & I rub sheabutter mixed wt a lil mentholatum on his chest, back and nose bridge.
if it's fan, don't put d child directly under it or facing it.

Greetings to all. Please when do I start baby shopping. I am waiting for list from my hospital. However someone told me that the list I will be given is mostly what the hospital will need for the delivery nd that I would need to buy other things on my own. Is that true? When is the right time to start shopping for my baby

jess20:
You should use formular. Don't add sugar or glucose

Tnx sister.I was told LO won't eat if it's not sweetened oooo
Sent it to u & ijeoma2728

FINA4804:
Friso gold cereal is nice I have used it but I have not used the milk, though I know it will be good too. Then for adding sugar I normally add I break one cube into 4 and add to the one she will eat for the whole day. Some persons don't but it depends on you I also add formula

Thanks much. Yes, I'll add formula but was just wondering about the sugar because I was told LO won't eat it if its not sweetened.

okirewaju:
I've never used Friso products and I've sent the book to the e-mail provided

Cheers!!!

Seen it, thanks so much

Pls moms & dads
Do I need to add sugar or glucose to my LOs pap? Just about to start him on it. He's already eating mashed bananas, potatoes, rice, plantain & oranges.

Sweet moms
Please who has used frisolac gold and frisogld cereal for their LOs? It was recommended to me & I'd like to sample experiences before purchasing. Thanks.

Wow!

Amen dear...thanks for sharing.

Na so e dey b o.. try do ur sitz bath at least 3x a day. NO HOT WATER O!!! & don't rub it. Sit in warm salt water wt savlon or purit.

bossladyMo:
No one has answered my question on how the induction of labour goes exactly *sadface*

Also, has anyone experienced a membrane sweep before? Are Naija doctors open to that?

Sorry dear, I've been MIA. I was induced at exactly 41wks here in naija. It's my first baby, I was working & active d entire pregnancy, kpekused like tomorrow no dey, used EPO & ate enough pineapple bt I didn't go into labour, was just having mild contractions.

Anyways, here's how mine went (na long tory o): got to d hospital around 1pm and my OB did a vagginaal examination to check ripeness of cervix bt it was still closed so he inserted d tablet (misopristol- dint get the spelling) into d vaagina(abit painful) & set up glucose drip to my arm. My mum and hubby were in the ward wt me & we were just gistin. Nurses came frequently to monitor my bp and baby's heartbeat. Around 5pm, I was checked and cervix had just started dilating so d doc inserted another tablet and 30 mins later, I had the worst menstrual cramps u can think of-nonstop! I was in pains for the entire 30 mins. I just faced d wall and was using breathing techniques. Then, d pain reduced & I saw the 'show' bloody mucus- contractions were now coming and going. Nurses were still monitoring baby's heartbeat. I was checked-2cm around 7pm.

I was hungry and ate rice wt chicken. All ds while, I still had d glucose drip. I stayed like dis all tru d night- contractions coming and going & was sleepy at a point bt snapped out of it. Nurses still monitored d baby's heartbeat. I started climbing stairs(wasn't easy wt my vijay feelin like it wanted to fall out) 2 speed things up. Nurse came to reshave my pubicc area( I had shaved at home) sayin deres a way dey shave & in case the induction failed, CS wud b done.

By 5am, d doc came to check & twas stil 2cm so he did a membrane sweep (twas reeeealy painful dat I was crying). It's like he twisted my insides.. said its to help me den he inserted the 3rd vaaginal tablet & dats wen I saw heaven
D contractions started coming nonstop..it was indeed painful. I was calling Jesus all tru, I threw away my phone, almost climbed the wall and asked my husband to be rubbing my waist truout. Me dat was goin to the toilet to urinate started doin it on d bed (dey put macintosh) constantly. I lost track of time. At a point, I felt something coming out of me and checked- d water had broken. Later, I started feeling like I wanted to pupu & wen d urge bcame totally absolutely unbearable, d doc came to check & d baby's head was already in the vagiina so I walked to d delivery room and in one push tho I was given a small cut which I didn't feel pain sef cos d labour pain had overshadowed, birthed my prince around 10am & ALL d pain stopped immediately. I was den given oxytocin drip to help wt d placenta delivery & den xylocaine to numb d pain while stitching.

Truly, induction is a painful process(I av low threshold for pain sha) but having ur baby in ur arms is well worth it. My mom told me how my DH sang love songs and called me swt names all tru bt dat pain didn't allow me know he did oooo

May God make it easy for you. *hugs*

switgoody, I used EPO inserted tru d vijay by squeezing out d oil from the capsule then massaging the whole area (2 tabs each morning and evening) as well as kpekus alongside but it didn't work for me as I still ended up being induced.

FINA4804: You are very correct, I have something close to kudos where do you live in ph. 07080779123 you can send a text message.

just seeing this. I stay at woji. Wots d name of the diaper and the cost?

bossladyMo: Till you give birth, hehehe. Me I'm already at the tail end of my pregnancy though.

2 nights ago, PHCN did their best, and to make matters worse, the gen was bad....my husband had to turn to generator repairer by 1am in the morning, cos I just could not sleep...the heat was radiating all over me!

this was me while preggy. chai! I remember whenever PHCN abi na PH-D strike at night, I'll be shouting...heat o! I'm so hot til hubby will go and put d generator on. he had to buy two rechargeable standing fans & cope with sleeping under AC.
