Mama boys sorry about baby's shakara.. I think you should continue to put him to latch, when he begins to process the sweetness, he might change. Don't give up on EBF just yet.
And well done on holding up without help, it is well with you.

Who will I support bayii?
Our baby or you?
Just be good, for the main time, continue the breast milk feeding via bottle, you can reduce the formula he is taking, ensure to present the breath to him, he would come around.
i pray e comes around... Cs pumpin breast is painful eehhh!!!

Good evening mamas in the house,
Pls I need your help once again o.
I need a non cultural based guidance on care of belly button (navel) after the umbilical cord falls off!
I googled and Google says just to leave it except clean any secretions if found...
I have heard so many different versions, like use hot fabric to press the Navel, tie stones to fabric etc. Grind the fallen cord etc...

Pls can someone educate me on the proper and adequate/necessary care.
Coz my baby's cord fell off on Thursday, and I am concerned I am not doing the right thing.

Also pls how long will it take for the Navel to heal properly!

Pls note I am asking despite Google coz, I remember Google said I don't need alcohol (spirit to clean cord) just damp cotton is adequate, but I latter read somewhere that alcohol could be used in developing countries (Nigeria is one) where there is high susceptibility to infection.

Pls educate me.
Thanks.

Continue to clean with your methylated spirit. A week or thereabout it will dry up.

In my culture we use warm water to press a little while bathing, then use spirit and cotton wool to clean like 4times a day, it falls off 6-12 days, when it falls , the mother or caretaker chew a small quantity of alligator pepper, not much chewing o, place d grinded alligator pepper on the navel and band it with a white bandage or a clean small piece of cloth, around the baby.

I think they stop when d baby is a month old

Hello Mamas...longest time o. How body? grin I'm a June mama (2021). Baby is going to 10 months now and he stands on his own. He's about to start walking. Hubby says we should try for another baby. That's our child is old enough. If God answers his prayer this month, we will have another child by Dec. I'm a bit worried. Is it okay to have another child so soon? I just gave birth last year na. Has anyone been through this before? How did it go?

Medically they will advise to space your children. Your body need to replenish from all it lost from the last pregnancy .
That been said, some women takes in even at 3 months most of the time unplanned and still end up with a healthy child but sincerely, it is not always easy at the part of the woman.
Taking care of pregnancy and a toddler who is entirely dependent on you for everything is not easy dear, talking from experience.
At the end of my sermon, the choice is yours. I am not a doctor, just a mother.

Good morning fellow mothers . Please I need your advise o as I am a ftm. I am 41 weeks and 3 days yet no sign of labour. My hospital is saying I will be induced at 42 weeks if I don’t go into labour. Some people have been telling me 42 weeks is to late that I should have been induced by now. What do you think about this as I am panicking badly.

Panicking will not solve the problem.
Talk to your doctor about your fears .
Trust God completely and He will perfect all for you.

Hmm baby is already 4.1 and its not EDD yet. My dear, if I was the one I will opt for CS. Babies gain weight at 3rd trimester unless you are willing to risk your life and that of baby by taking agbo for baby to lose weight.

@ Expectantmom, able cappo. Where art thou?

I mostly drink water directly from the freezer whenever I am pregnant and this is my third baby. No issues at all. And it is what ibcan stand. I also take tea using dano milk and ovaltine without issues though not regularly. As for orange juice, I can't really say.

Sorry about the pain, ensure you eat what your body accepts. Very soon this phase will be over......
I'll suggest you skip the ferrous and try folic acid till your body is balanced... Also you can go for scan as you are 10 weeks already and your LO is visible enough.

Seek your doctor's opinion ma... People give birth to big babies normally as well but I'm sure they were certified to go ahead by their doctor. I remember reading the BA/BS of one mama here that has a 4+ kg baby without tears(she said her vagina was on fire cheesy)... Your doctor will either certify you or not so please consult him/her

Please don't panic as its not good for you and baby right now.... I don't know why your hospital insisted on 42 weeks if you don't fall into labour but I'll suggest you go for a scan to be sure baby is fine because as they grow in there, the space reduces for them....

Also do more of trekking, squatting and other things that can trigger labour. Safe delivery ma'am

If it happens this month, congratulations afterall many mistakenly concieve shortly after giving birth and many even plan it that way but if it doesn't, I'll suggest you hold on a bit especially if you don't have anyone to help you arothe house and with your baby cos it's you it will take a toll on considering that your baby is totally dependent on you and pregnancy comes with different packages..

If you also feel ready physically and mentally, the golden chair is waiting for you wink

Try ‘nipple shield’. He should believe he’s sucking from the bottle with that.
