Kingsmum: it could be anything but if baby isn't in pain or in fever, it's probably not life-threatening. |

Though i know many thumb suckers do it out of habit. Try to distract him when he starts sucking, with a toy or biscuit. if everything fails- TAKE IT TO THE LORD IN PRAYER ![]() 1 Like |

Pelupelu: Have you administered PCM for the fever? It may also help to knock him to sleep! For the cold you can use eucalyptus oil to unblock the nose. Pour some on a face towel and hang it on his chest so he can inhale it... that should help. Massaging the chest with a warm towel too may de-congest the chest! Also try and Place him in a quiet room and rock him gently maybe all the distractions are not letting him settle down. Backing with a wrapper usually will settle many babies who are restless. |

sayoberry: Instead of the ordinary pap from only semi or corn , I have one that is richer in nutrients and no child will ever refuse it no matter what. Some of the ingredients include wheat tamba fonio millet tiger nut ginger etc Its very cheap. Look up at my previous post you'll see the pix. Thank me later. |

Good morning mama's....i just gave birth via C-section a week ago and am suffering from gas badly, I don't have appetite so the major thing I take is tea. Could it be d milk causing it? Also my baby refuses to burp and it's making her very gassy and fussy. Am even thing of changing her milk from Nan to aptamil if it will help. D only time she poops well is if I press her tummy wit warm water. Am just confused jare. |
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by helovesme(f): 12:27pm On Jan 16, 2016 |
igb400: Switch to aptamil. It's about the best formula in the market. Are you breastfeeding as well? Please try and breastfeed so matter how short. I know it's painful with the CS scar but try. That way you can adopt "combination feeding" (breast milk and formula). You shouldn't make the milk for your baby too "thick". I always go one scoop less than what's recommended on the label and it has worked well for my baby. - no constipation or any tummy issues. For example, if it's 6scoops recommended on the pack for 200ml, I use 5 scoops. Regarding gas - try and get Trebor or any sweet with mint. It really helps. You should try and eat. Experiment with anything - vegetables, fish, oats and even Are you taking pepper soup? If yes, you might have to cut down a bit. Spicy food also causes bloating and gas. I can relate to the pains and discomfort from CS. Pele dear. Don't worry, it's only a phase and it will pass. 1 Like |

Kimoni: Kimoni. Please do you mind sharing the meals you introduced to your baby after 6 months. What you posted is exactly what my health visitor advised. I have a book from my health visitor on advisable list of food after 6 months, et al but it will be great having practical ideas from you. Thanks. |

sayoberry: sweets I hv successfully minimised my son's sucking.. WITH PLASTER! not the regular one o! the type the use in hospitals. . its wrapped I blue nd yellow plastic. I used to wrap the finger like 5 times .. long wraps o! the boo will sit the it and use his 6 teeth to remove them one after the other. so I made it tighter. whoops.. he has stopped sucking during the day and he sucks onces in a while at night.. I decided to free him snc whn he is awake he doesn't suck. whn I hv the time I will resume the plastering again.. * at some point, whn I bring out the plaster, my son will submit his finger without hassles.. and the plaster will last for 3 days o stats.. b4 I started changing it everyday *after a week, my boy started forgetting. . and will only suck whn he is asleep nd he doeant want to wake up yet.. I figured it was out of reflex.. *it cost me 3 sleepless nights with lots of pinches , slaps, blows..due to frustration *whn ever I pukk off the plaster, he smiles nd feels the finger with his other hands, pulls it nd screams. . *like this finger is still in existence* * I DDNT GIVE UP! COS HE FRUSTRATED ME * MY BOY NOW EATS EVERYTHING ND ANYTHING THAT'S IN A PLATE ESPECIALLY JOLLOF RICE.. 6 Likes |

FexCathy as regards formula for infants, it really depends on d baby and ur pocket. This is because some babies react to some formula. As regards aptamil, it's a UK based formula and according to health Professionals in d UK, amongst all other formula it's d closest to breastmilk cos of some nutritional content. U can't see aptamil in US shops (at least I av never seen maybe others av seen). In d US, similac, enfamil, gerber and d likes r termed best as well cos of d nutritional contents. In Nigeria, Nan is termed best (it's d most recommended by health professionals). So my dear it actually depends. If u try aptamil and ur baby doesn't react to it, then u can continue but pls follow d instructions written on d container. Also not everyone can afford these milk cos they r pricey in naija. So some pple just stick to Nan and d likes. My son started with similac but had to change to aptamil when I started buyin similac for 12k and he finishes it in one week. Told my hubby it was suicide mission to spend 12k every week on formula alone. I almost changed to Nan when getting stage 2 aptamil was like searchin for a needle inside grass in darkness but was lucky to get someone comin from d UK thus stocked up d quantity he ll use till 1yr 6months. I hope my lengthy explanation helped FexCathy: 7 Likes |

Nita2013: God bless u ma.. Fex, pls just go for what u can afford. babies rarely react to nan, lots of fake smas in d market, frisolac is good, thrive signature is also good. my lo took all of it. cow and gate milk is good as well. just go for wht u can afford 4 Likes |

I tried sma before aptamil and based on my experience I prefer aptamil. I t it here and decided to give it a try and I didn't regret it. The nutritional value is higher than Sma ( I checked). I don't know about others cos ivve been team sma for years. FexCathy: |
