Pojomojo:Hello mama. Please it's very important to burp your baby before putting them down. I made the mistake of putting my son to sleep after feeding. Thank God my sister was around and she heard him making sounds in his sleep. The food had come back up and he was choking Whenever I think back to that day, I slap myself mentally |
jalodo2:Okay, thank you so much ![]() |
jalodo2:Thank you so much for this. I went to the closest centre to my house and they didn't have it. I'll just go to Lasuth then. I really appreciate |
tatacherie:Will do so, thank you |
kokaiye:Okay, I will find one close to me. Thank you |
Hello Mamas. I took my baby to get his one-year vaccines (chickenpox, MMR and vitamin A) but the hospital I use didn't have the chickenpox vaccine. They said it's not been available for a while, and they promised to call when it is. I'm worried about not getting his shot early, as there is no guarantee of when it will be available. Is there any implication in delaying the shot? Also, I'll greatly appreciate it if anyone recommends a hospital on the mainland (Lagos) currently administering the vaccine. Thank you, mamas. |

Good morning mamas. Please is it too early to introduce other foods like cereals, purees etc to my 5 month old baby?? If I can start, kindly recommend what I can give him. |
MummyD2020:Thanks mama. |
Hello mamas. Please is 4 months too early to use a baby walker? |
nnekaike:I don't think I've seen a yellow pack of Huggies before |
nnekaike:Please which of the huggies is it so I don't make the mistake. |
cretin:There is the Nigerian brand of huggies?? What's wrong with it though? |
dubaby:I also experienced nose bleeds during pregnancy, but in my first trimester. Bring it up with your doctor just to confirm it's nothing. |
Niyoda:IMO, electric best pump is better. I use the medela brand and it is very effective |
vicky9ice:Yes, it should have fallen off. Please take him back to the hospital. It's not a cause for worry |
Slimbae2:Green poop could signify different things. What is the consistency like? Is he breastfed or formula fed? Is it frothy or has mucus in it? The colour could signify diarrhoea, or an infection. Please let him see a paediatrician You can also click the link to see what normal poo should look like in babies.

B.S continued So when we got home, I insisted on walking to the market and preparing dinner. Later on at night, I started having mild pains. I was sweating seriously so I decided to take a shower. While in the bathroom I saw the famous bloody show and my heart leapt. I didn't want to go into labour in the middle of the night, and at the same time I was elated that the procedure worked. Thankfully, the pain was bearable so I went back to bed. All the while I was communicating with my sister, and she advised me to go to the hospital the next day. Around 7am in the morning, hubs had gone to work, pain was gradually coming up so I chatted up the other gyne and he asked me to come to the hospital. Let's just say I strolled in, thinking I was going for check up. At some point, I got tired of waiting for him to complete his rounds so I went to buy water. When I got back in the nurses were like where have you been?? The doctor has been looking for you. They asked me to go into a room, that I was in labour. I thought the nurse was joking until they asked me to change into the hospital gown. Then I knew it was serious. I called my husband and my sister to start coming. Hubs had to go home first to get my hospital bag. Matron came to check how far I was dilated around 11am. She said 3cm but the gyne will come confirm. I was already very sore from the membrane sweep so having them poke their fingers down there was fire. At some point when the gyne came to check again, I pretended I was asleep so he wouldn't disturb me , but he knew I was faking it. They passed a line, and inserted a pill down there. From that point I started to loose track of time. The pain kept increasing, but I tried to keep my cool. My sis got in before hubs, but they weren't allowed to stay in the room because there was another lady in labourin the room as well. The gyne burst my waters and the contractions became more frequent, and much more painful. I hit everything in sight. The bedframe, the wall, everything!!! When my husband was allowed into the room, I asked him to rub my back, and when he bent down to do so I hit him really hard. I told the matron I felt like pooping, she said not to that if i do I would suffer tears in my cervix as it wasn't time yet. I kept on shouting that I wanted to poop, so the gyne asked them to take me to the delivery room. Then they asked me to push anytime I felt like pooping. Mehn, I pooped o (I felt so embarrassed and kept apologising to the gyne). He didn't mind but told me to push harder as my efforts was weak. I was sweating seriously, i even begged the gnye that they should turn up the A.C. I couldn't push any longer and I started to panic. The matron held my hand and told me to try one more time, that the baby's head was already showing and that moment was very critical, that the baby would suffocate if I didn't push hard. I felt a prick, and heard the gnye pick up his tools, then I knew they were cutting me up. Na so I gather all the energy in the world and gave one long hard push and my baby boy was delivered. The relief I felt was out of this world!!! They put him on my chest for a while, and took him to clean him up. I felt a prick again, before the gyne started sewing me up. Baby was born at 6.01pm on the 30th of April, birth weight 4.15kg vaginal delivery with episiotomy. B.S submitted. Sorry it came late, i just started enjoying the 4th trimester. Cc momoadura |
B.S Hubby and I got engaged Feb last year, but our wedding got delayed due to covid. I got pregnant in August. First trimester came with different legs. From constantly spitting (this irritated me because I had to carry tissue around at work or have sweets in my mouth, I also had to keep a bottle half filled with water by my bed side at night to spit in). Then at some point it was nose bleeds. My doctor attributed this to high blood pressure which i rejected in my head. I was determined to carry my pregnancy to term withour any health issues. Second trimester was blissful. Productivity increased at home and at work. At some point I forgot I was pregnant. Hubs and my colleagues had to constantly remind me not to do certain stuff, left to me I felt like super woman. Fast forwad to December, two weeks to my traditional wedding I lost my dad. My world crashed before my eyes and I was afraid I would loose the baby because I was seriously affected by his death. God pulled me through that phase. Third trimester was not so bad at first, until the pelvic pain started. The thing was painful!!! Turning in bed at night was war, at some point hubs had to help move my legs if wanted to leave bed. I continued working for fear of being left alone in the house. My colleagues at work would joke that I would give birth in the office�. I was using two hospitals for antenatal, although I had made up on where to give birth. I was scheduled for a membrane sweep at the other hospital on the 29th of April at 39 weeks. That thing can pain!!!! The gyne kept stretching my inside, I almost twisted off the table�. My husband was there and he held my hand, he also had to use his body to serve as a guide so I don't fall off. After the procedure, the gyne told me cervix was not open, but it was soft so I should keep an open mind. He said the sweep was a 50 percent chance of bringing about labour, but if it failed I would be induced at 40 weeks. I had heard about how painful induction was, there was no how I was going to go through that pain |
revcompaty:Lol, my baby is also ebf and doesn't poop often. It's normal for them to skip days without pooping. |
Keeky08:Maybe she took someone's colour. You can never tell with these kids ![]() Example is my sis in law's son. He is very fair but both parents are dark skinned. He took his maternal grandma's colour. |
Keeky08:Same thing happened with my son. It could be that your daughter is meant to be naturally dark, so no worries there. Although I switched to mobaby products (shea butter), and his colour is gradually returning. |
justifiedcoyy:Lol, this is very funny. I think I can understand why you ran away��. But try to brace up for next time. She will draw strength from your presence. DH was with me all through and I was really glad because holding him gave me the "push" to push�� even though he chop small beating from me and I nearly bit him. |
tatacherie:Great. Please keep us updated. Kisses to your little darling. |
