Good afternoon from this side wonderful mum's.
Please I have a question,
My 3 months old baby boy poos once in 2 weeks and when he does finally poo he will be crying as if he is in pain plus the poo is usually strong, I changed my diet to mostly fruits, no improvement.
I later took him to c a doctor, and he suggested I start giving him water cus of the strong poo(we were on ebf) which I have started for 9 days now still he hasn't poo for the past 9 days .
Nb: He eats well, plays well, farts well, even urinates a lot but to poo is just our challenge now.
Who has any suggestions on what I can do please

While some babies poo very often, babies who don't poo often like yours are also very normal ma. Keep taking fruits and enough water.. Continue to give him water too so that when he eventually wants to poo, it won't be too strenuous for him..
Eating well, farting well, playing well and urinating well shows he's fine.

It is possible.. Some babies walk very fast cos of the use of baby walker. Try hold both her hands and walk with her as much as possible. My baby was going to be 1 by May but she took her first step march 30 and stopped . We kept holding her hand and doing all we could. 1st of May, her dad called me to come see her walking and that was 15 days to her birthday..

So e babies don't walk until after a year but I hope hers is goinnto be different

Thank you Ma. I will get her a baby walker as soon as I can

Apart from cerelac and Golden morn, what cereals can be given to a year old baby you want to wean off pap.
I also need lunch box suggestions. He eats a fair amount of adult food

I need a hospital that has the Rotavirus vaccine in IKORODU Lagos. The PHC I use don't have it.

My wife and I recently had a new baby, the baby started having serious Colic at the second week. She hardly sleep at night, cries and gripping in pain. We later found a drug called Bonnisan Syrup. It works like magic.
Our baby sleeps well now, feeds well and adding good weight.
I recommend this to all mothers to have. Even though it's a bit expensive but I can assure you it's worth it.
Here is the picture of the Bonnisan and you can check it on Jiji

Single working mothers in Africa face a unique set of challenges as they navigate the delicate balance between their careers and the responsibilities of parenthood. These women, often the sole providers for their families, encounter obstacles that require unwavering strength and determination. Among the many challenges they confront, four key aspects significantly impact their daily lives: ensuring child safety with baby car seats, managing childcare arrangements, finding affordable baby walkers and dressers, and securing a comfortable baby cot.

1. Child Safety and Baby Car Seats:

Ensuring the safety of their little ones is a top priority for single working mothers. However, the cost of essential safety equipment like baby car seats can be a significant burden. These mothers must carefully allocate their resources to purchase car seats that meet safety standards, all while managing other financial responsibilities.

2. Childcare Arrangements:

Arranging reliable childcare while working full-time can be a logistical puzzle for single mothers. They often rely on extended family members or community support systems to help care for their children when they're away at work. Striking a balance between work hours and finding suitable childcare arrangements is an ongoing challenge.

3. Affordable Baby Walkers and Dressers:

Providing a comfortable and nurturing environment for their children is a fundamental concern for single working mothers. However, finding affordable baby walkers and dressers can be a struggle. These mothers must carefully budget and prioritize their purchases to ensure their children have the necessary items without overspending.

4. Securing a Comfortable Baby Cot:

A cozy and secure sleeping space is essential for babies, but purchasing a quality baby cot can strain the budgets of single working mothers. They often need to seek out cost-effective options without compromising on safety and comfort, considering factors like mattress quality and durability.

In the face of these challenges, single working mothers in Africa display remarkable resilience and resourcefulness. They seek support from their communities, explore affordable options for baby equipment, and engage in diligent financial planning to provide their children with the best possible care.

While these challenges may seem daunting, the determination and love that single working mothers pour into their families are a testament to their strength. They strive to create safe, comfortable, and nurturing environments for their children, even in the face of financial constraints. As we acknowledge the challenges they face, it's essential to support and celebrate the unwavering dedication of these remarkable women in Africa.

You can start by cutting her finger nails regularly to avoid scratching her face further. Get original honey and apply on the wound. The scar will fade off with Time

If baby is still experiencing this, I will suggest you stop eating bread altogether.

Same as my baby..
I was advised to give her orange though I haven't given her because I'm on EBF.
Kindly let me know if you've gotten a solution.

Mama's pls I need help. My baby is 12 weeks old and spits up so much whenever I take milk. I noticed it when he was 2 weeks old and kept observing him, at a point I stopped taking milk but I am really missing milk. I resumed taking it 3 days ago and we are back to square 1, any remedy pls? I am exclusively breastfeeding.

I first clean with warm water with a very clean towel. Then use cotton wool to touch gently with spirit. It worked so well for me.

pls what’s the best spirit one can get for a baby? Thanks

Good evening Mama's

What else can be done

Dear Nairalander
I'm reaching out for urgent assistance regarding my 5-month-old baby's recurring rashes. We've tried multiple antibiotics, including injections, but the rash keeps reappearing in different areas of his body. It disappears during medication but returns once treatment ends.
Please find attached a picture for reference.
Thank you for your prompt attention and support.

Good morning mamas in the house, pls I need help oh. My two year old poop comes with little blood. Believe me, I have taken him to the best hospital in my town, different medications here and there. Even my Sister visited a pediatrician abroad concerning him and he was prescribed probiotics only. I was told to give him fiber base food which I have been doing. The blood stoped for some months and started again last week. Took him to health center and the pediatrician gave him antibiotics and yet. But he’s not running temperature and he eats well. My problem now is the blood. I was told to use scents leaf which I have done but yet. I’m so scared. I need advice or have anyone experience something like this and what did you do?

How hard or soft is the stool?
Can you pick up any part of the stool with 2 fingers?

I suggest you barb everything after which you will be massaging the head with palmkernel oil allover. It will regrow evenly and strong.

You voiced my thought.
This is the best way to handle it

I would advice you to drop all eye drops for now and try what worked for us.

Just like you, I took bf back to paediatrician when I noticed the eye discharge, (this was about 9days after delivery), she prescribed eyedrops and antibiotics which I religiously used, but nothing changed.
I consulted a nurse who told me to get Eva bottled water, boil, cool and pour back into bottle.
Clean the affected eye with this water and cotton wool like 3-5times a day.
Mode of cleaning is to gently clean from the inner part of the eye outward, and it has to be a one-way thingy.

Hope this works for you, as it did for us.

Owh how I miss Tutu82 ' inputs here 😉.
The Lord be with you my darling sis.
Our love to the Triplets🥰

Pure honey applied on any scar daily for a month works wonders.

Good evening, please I want to ask what type of cereal can I buy for a 6 months old baby?
She's has started taking amala, beans & rice but she's not taking Pap. So I'm thinking what cereal I can introduce to her.

The choice is your's to make.

I personally use Cerelac for my kids but there are other brands like Nutrilac, Nutrend, etc.
