My baby was like this and I told my MIL that it seems my baby has jaundice cos the sleep wasn't normal. She gave me a negative look but my mother instinct won't let me rest. I took my baby to hospital and it was confirmed. Called my Dr Aunt, she said if I lyk my DS I must wake him up to feed at least every 3hrs so he can pass it out through poo. I started waking him by running tap water on his leg. I didn't say ur baby has jaundice but most babies with jaundice sleep excessively and you must wake them up to feed if you like them cos they need to poo a lot,to flush jaundice out of their system.

Pls ma how did you manage the jaundice?

Since your baby is jaundiced, pls wake her up to feed every 2-3hours

Giddyperson:

Ok biko make sure the jaundice is really gone before you relax. I thought there was supposed to be another text to confirm its gone.

Yes there’ll be another test, am just tired

Ezriela:
Get cotton seed and sugar cane leaves boiled them together for like 30mins and drink it. It serves as your water,discard after 24hrs .Do it for 4days.Pls do not give baby to drink, if you are lactating well, i will suggest you pause formula for now. It was raining then, I did not make use of the sun but the weather has changed now. Expose LO to early morning sun for like 20mins btw 8am-10am, pls cover his eyes. DS sb level was 14% when I went back the 4th day it has dropped to 3.2%.
Please I beseech thee wake LO up to nurse every 3hrs, so baby can poo well. Calm down, this phase shall pass.

Giddyperson:

Pele, biko wake to feed for now. Feed very well so that the second test can come out -ve. After that two of you can rest. Pele

Good evening experienced mamas in the house. I gave birth via cs on Monday and my child had to bottle fed with formula . But I’ve been trying to put him on my breast for 2 days now and he keeps rejecting my breast . I just end up giving him formula. Now my breast are so full and hard and very painful. It’s even leaking. But still he won’t suck. I really want to breastfeed him. What can I do. I tried pumping with electric bottle pump
Today but that thing is too slow . I need your expertise please

gratefulme40:



Haaa..... teamie, this was my exact situation yesterday night that I had to wake up and order a breast pump online. Thankfully, the swelling reduced this morning and the pain went away.

I wore a good supportive bra which I haven’t taken off except when I am going to bath and baby has been sucking as much as she can too.

I also massaged both breast with warm soapy water in circular motion when I was having my bath.

I don’t know if any of these was what helped as I am also a FTM

Other moms with experience will come in soon

Sorry, hang in there.... cos I totally understand the pain as I went through same which is only subsiding today

Ruthiegal:

Okay thanks. I just hope mine does too and he starts sucking coz I’m starting to feel bad that he won’t suck my breast . I don’t want to continue him on formula. At least for the next few months i really what to breastfeed him

His temperature was at this morning was 37.1

So i cooked an entire pot of vegetable soup, and just as I was about to round up with the last stir, it fell face down to the ground .
I already called my husband and he was trying to tell me its not the end of the world, I need someone who understands that it is indeed the end of the world to please sympathize with me. So much wasted time, energy and it was a big pot. .

Also our gas finished so I was using the death trap called camp gas, which tried to burn my hand which is the reason I called hubby to give him a piece of mind because he was supposed to refill before going out. I'm so damn pissed

FloraEC:

Na this Buhari regime, the energy especially with nsogbu ụmụaka join, we'll eat it like that.

Giddyperson:

Woah, thank God you're fine. I was trying to console myself by saying atleast it didn't burn me but that didn't work initially, though I see reason now. I was holding the pot to stir when the pot shifted and I felt a sudden wave of heat from the gas on my hand. I had a split second to choose between letting it scald me and flinging the pot , when I saw my work of art laying on the floor, I started feeling I chose the wrong option

comtem2011:
You chose the right option o. Na person we dey fine dey get mouth chop food.
I can't forget that day and I started crying for people that have had fire accident in one way or the other. The pain is no be here my sister.

I was a boiling meet ni o and I said let me enter kitchen to pick something, the next thing I heard was gboah, In fact what God did for me that day, I can't tell it all cos I was supposed to back my baby, she be chewing gum, one spirit just said no and I dropped her. Had it been she was at my back, only God knows what would have happened to her. Even though the thing didn't touch her, I was confused when it happened. Instead of me to apply first aid on my body, I was busy touching her body to be sure she's fine. It was at that period that the thing enter my body well. Chai, pressure pot accident is damn bad. I just thank God it was not my face. I for don become ojuju Calabar by now.

Even me i join you too thank God cos na cry u for dey cry now.
