Good day mummys in the house. Pls my baby is five wks and he has cough and catarrh. I'm using Evans septrin for him but he still have difficulty in breathing. A friend recommends ampiclox drops. Pls I don't know if I should combine the two or give only ampiclox. Meanwhile I say kudos to the op, its quite educating |

rezzy: My daughter's caregiver said the same thing because she spoon feeds her cereal and she collects it well while i bottle feed her cereal because i feel spoon feeding is slow and a lot of work and i want the feeding to be fast so i can move on to something else. 1 Like |

Hello mamas, please i need some contributions. My baby is 2 months plus and is on EBF. i feed him anytime he gets cranky or sucks his finger. What I'm trying to say is that he feeds at least once in 1hr 30mins. I'm starting work soon and really want to EBF him for 6months. How many mil will i express that will take him from 8am to 1pm when i'll be home to express more and 2pm to 6pm when i'll be home. Please mamas with experince, how did you do it? Thanks in advance. |

Ann2612: Pls let him finish his septrin dosage and don't use anything else for now. My son had both about 3 weeks after birth and the Dr advised me not to use any drugs on him so he could build his immunity. After a week, it went on its own. He is 6 months now and has not had it since then. Antibiotics are very powerful drugs and shouldn't be administered consistently on babies or even adults like paracetamol. 1 Like |

MGeey: Try and establish your routine for him before you actually start work so he can get used to it. Start expressing and bottle feeding him now so you can determine how much he takes and when he takes it. Then it will be easier for him to adjust when you start work. It's difficult to use other people's estimates before babies feed differently. 2 Likes |

MiracleMum: Lol....I feel you my sister. Spoon feeding babies sure teaches one how to be patient. But then, we can't run away from it. Pls try to create time for it, even if it is once per day so he can get used to it. They surely can't use bottles forever. And the good thing is that it get easier with time. 3 Likes |

mydreams25: For the first 3 days to one week, it might be like this but it gets better with time. There is really no big advantage other than the fact that his food might be restricted to only cereals, pap and milk. Yet, at 6 month plus, babies need to expand their diet. Even as you bottle feed him, continue to try spoonfeeding. Spoonfeed him when he is hungry as he might be more willing to eat it then. |

Kimoni: 4 where, I tried it wen she was hungry, c cry of d century. It wasn't fast enough 4 her. Now I'm tinking of trying wen she is not so hungry. D funny tin is she collects spoon wen its adult food o, bt 1ce its her cereal, na war. |

MumZ: Then you no no get problem naa. Lol If she collects adult food with spoon, don't worry yourself jare. It's not like she will still need to learn how to use spoon later. She already knows it. The day will come very soon when she will start accepting. You can just continue trying weekly or maybe bi-weekly to see if she has changed. 1 Like 1 Share |

NoQualms1:I think u may have to taper off breastfeeding, instead of going cold turkey. U can start with reducing and/or missing daytime breastfeeds like every other day for some days and then moving on to night feeds. The pain will be lesser dat way. 3 Likes |

Chyvy: Thank you. I've been feeding her only at night for some weeks now. She's not taking this weaning easy at all, she's not been active as she used to be since yesterday and today she stooled about 5 times. I'm just confused, dunno what to do. Help mamas. |

NoQualms1:My dear, nighttime feeds are usually d hardest to stop but like I experienced with my lo, if u usually feed say 3 times per night, u can start by missing one at a time, the feeds closest to nighttime so at d end u are left with early morning feeds. Even if she cries, u wud have to ignore her. Its unusual for her not to be active, what solids do u feed her? And is she taking them well? About d stooling, is she teething, running temp? Or could be from d foods u're giving her? pele dear, it is well |
