Dip cottonbud into mentholatum and insert inside her anus. U can repeat that till she poops. My baby poops immediately i do that. Try it cos It works like magic. Gripe water works for my baby too.
Also make sure she sucks enough milk fron one breast bfoe giving her the other cos the hindmilk which is more nutritious comes after they suck the foremilk.
Hope this helps

You can also try bicycle kicks move her legs in cycling motion. Warm water massage on her tummy can help too

@lovinam
Yes i said Mentholatum and it works for my baby. Are u concerned about the menthol? Well, i use baby mentholatum and i think the menthol is not too peppery. Before i started doing that, i took my baby to the hospital and the doc inserted suppository into his anus and he pooped. I've used suppository before, after delivery when i couldnt excrete and it's peppery.
( hope u understand what i mean when i said peppery, might not be the actual word to use)

I guess different pple with different method. My son had it at 6weeks and it wasn't on his body alone, it wiped of his hair. I got Nizoral shampoo for 1000naira (as recommended by a friend), when I want to give him his bath, I rub d whole body and head with d Nizoral shampoo, wait for 5-7mins then use same Nizoral on his body and head to bathe him without using any other soap. I did this for one week and d nla was gone but I continued for another one week but reduced it to once a day b4 stopping. His cream was aveeno eczema cream.

The active chemical in Nizoral is 'ketoconazole'. U can look it up online to kno more about it

Also watch what u eat too so as to kno if ur baby is reactin to a certain food.

pls wats d solution to nla?
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by Nita2013: 5:46am On Apr 08, 2015
Some advice has been given already but I guess it's d first poop that is hard thereby blockin d others from comin out too. Once d 1st poop can come out, she ll be able to poop. Then pls drink lots of water as well.

May God bless our little ones.
Pls my sabi mamas is it true that wearing diaper for a baby throughout d day and night isnt good? Some people said its only when the baby is going out that its necessary because it causes rashes and its good to free the bumbum at home. pls kindly talk from experience and if yes how wil i manage the urine and poo when at home without using diaper.

You can do it but not for long hrs and not after feeding him, so to minimize potty accident. Don't stretch the airing o cos children once they get used to something they love it to continue it

ur baby s too young. mayb wen he s older and you re ready to start potty training, u cld stop wearinh diaper at home. Use good diaper and wipes, change wen soiled/wet then u wont worry abt rashes.

If you use a good brand, you will have no rashes. Airing the bum is good tho....but 30mins a day is okay...not longer than that.

So sorry dearie, don't take it personal. the reason why we are here is because we wanna learn. Also, the fainting and dying are all jokes you too can laugh off. As Lovinam said,majority of us came from the "ever loving" pregnancy section so we are like families. I'm sorry one again.
