Keji3:Do u breastfeed? Do u eat well? If so, I don't think there's a need for multivitamins. Also,was ur LO diagnosed of any infection? I think u should seek a 2nd opinion. Congrats and welcom onboard 4 Likes 1 Share |

Pls mothers giving super apeti, cypri gold, cypron.....syrups to babies shd think twice. Those drugs are bad enough for adults not to talk of babies! A chubby baby doesn't mean a healthy baby, being healthy is the most important. 5 Likes |

Good morning mamas. Please sorry to digress, its six weeks now since I put to bed yet the dark coloration on my neck and the dark spots from the pimples I had while pregnant is yet to fade. I have used black native soap, longrich soap n coconut oil yet no improvement. Please any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks. |

Keji3:My LO was also given those drugs. The multivitamin is to help ur LO's immunity and antibiotics is to help fight infections. But the antibiotics shld be administered for only 7days or so. Ask ur doc to b extra sure. But it's normal that ur LO is given those drugs tho |

Jenonye: Normally, the problem is the other way round...i.e Mothers needing advice on how to get their LO to sleep at night. Your baby might just not be much of a sleeper and would rather be active. |

Keji3: Are you sure the antibiotic isnt for you? Everyone knows you dont give antibiotics when it is noy needed. Does your child have an infection? No. So why the antibiotic? Pls dont scatter your baby's natural process of building immunity. Antibiotics are not so good in ppl with infection, talkless of people with no onfection. Antibiotics kill both good and bad bacteria, e no dey look face. That is why women are advised to take natural yoghurt after fighting a toilet infection etc, cos the antibiotic would have killed the good bacteria, making them more susceptible to a stronger infection. So for a newborn who needs all the good bacteria he/she can get, an antibiotic is not a good idea...except he/she has an infection the body cannot fight....of ehich,tests would have been done. Pls go back to the hospital or call your doctor. Ask why the antibiotic was given. Antibiotic is not paracetamol or abidec. Besides, majority of the antibiotics we have are for babies older than 3months. It is a cost-benefit ratio that pushes doctors to preacribe antibiotics in babies younger than 3 months. So how a doctor would randomly give an antibiotic, beats me. 6 Likes |

shndy: No matter how you drum it in some people's ear, mba!...Nothing dey enta. I saw a big baby one time, at the health centre. Chubby kid...! But unknown to you, this baby had not taken 1 single vaccination shot...not 1....not even OPV drops. Now a mother somewhere will see that one and start self-medicating her kid, thinking chubby equals healthy. 4 Likes |

lamdec: My 2 kids had theirs fall of at about 2 weeks or a little over 2 weeks. I didnt bother myself, cos it was not infected, neither was it smelling. I didnt do any hot water pressing either. All i did was clean with spirit every 3-4hrs or so. 2 Likes |

Jenonye: Maybe you should try and simulate night time for your LO. Though that could be a bit hard, pull the curtains down perhaps and ensure everywhere is really quiet! if h/she wakes up does he/she cry? maybe you can leave the child lying down in peace if not crying.... avoid doing any activities around/in the same room baby is sleeping in the afternoon too. Hope these helps.... If not free the pikin abeg |

Jenonye: at least yours sleeps during the day...that was my baby not too long ago...you put her down 10 mins she is awake...except you are carrying her...then at night every 2 hours but one day she just flipped and started taking 3 hours day time nap and 12 hours straight sleep at night... try minimizing noise, swaddling, thats wrapping well in a blanket to give the illusion of being carried, you can try low music as well but just know that THIS TOO WILL PASS |
