Dudu Osun for baby I've not heard this one in my life TBH!!

ROTFL. I'm sure she meant black soap (ose dudu)its commonly used among the yorubas, some even mix with osun. I will surely take it along with the koinkoin. I hope I get the palm oil, dat palm oil massage too is good, our mothers believes a baby massaged wt palm oil can never have body odour. Dudu osun is a no no, but ose dudu mixed with osun (thanks Middy O for reminding me) is a must o

What's the difference between Dudu Osun and Ose Dudu? Same difference, all na packaging.

Nerf you know our stories are similar, I lost my own preg @ 22.5 weeks shortly after you. Private hospital on Bourdillon o!
My friend's sister almost died in the UK from infected CS site last year. Gross negligence ni o.

So UK too de struggle o, NHS isn't all that in my opinion
sorry for your loss....
UK? Infected CS site... Wow.

Some negligence shld also b blamed on some
Patients... Some patients over sabi is too much ... They'll try all other means like self medication, advice from people before coming to the hospital.
And some patients can lie... Lie about everything.. What's even for their own good.

Seriously ladies. ..c'mon with all these concussions n applications put into practice wen medical expertise were not existent at the time.

The medical practices have had gaping leaps in development and after spending thousands of dols for these cuties una wan still baff n massage with concussions n palm oil...really. .weh even nafdac no give clearance haba...
Mk we tk am easy ooh.

The pead nurses who says give ur baby a sponge bath/rob instead of the regular one we dey do is because of the sensitivities of these babies' skin.

Bekoo let's tune down with all these self claiming babalawo weh we wan turn here. .....even in the village they have started using baby soaps. .lol. ..
Let's be cautious with what we apply onto their skin and even into their mouth. ...pls

A patient that was taught how to use a sitz bath goes home and does what the mum or mum inlaw tells now end up having complications like a fistula, Even had d guts to sue d Hospital, of course she ended up embarrassing herself.

A patient who has CS and is as dirty as shii... Plus instead of coming to the hospital now decided to press the suture area with hot water.... Or the one that refused to take her antibiotics. Or the one that's saving money and wants to b discharged etc.

A woman came to the hospital with her sons circumcision site practically rotten... Guess what that was not why she came. She came becos of fever. She was hiding the circumcision tingy from us.

I can go on and on... Some patients are overzealous plus oversabi.. They want to dictate what shld be given to them.. Sometimes so Rude.
I'm not going to defend any Dr but some patients are more than a handful. I know how many times I've had to ask a patient to sign that he or she is going against medical advise.

honestly you took this out of my mouth.
Even ordinary powder with talc isn't good for a baby... Which powder doesn't have talc? It causes lung damage... But no matter how it's preached people still use it.. The way women pack it on babies body you'll wonder why the baby is so white...

Vaseline blue seal is good for baby skin. Sebamed baby soap is $5 approximately I know it's expensive it's very good too. There are different products made specifically for baby skin.

I think the excuse is that out mothers used it and nothing happened so we will use it. You've forgotten the people who made it for our mothers ain't the people making it today. Then it was genuinely for good health and skin... Now it's for more profit and how much more profit can b made plus the copy cats.

Yep! Spot on. Very negligent set of ppl, Dr's don't remember patient's history, even with their IPad in front of them. (Grey's Anatomy wanna be).

They could not manage common contractions, adviced me to go home and watch it. Till pains graduated into labour and water broke. End of story.

Please shine ya eye o! I know things happen but this was gross negligence!

Thank God for restoration.

@ Joleenluv and peebles. So sorry about your refusal. Like someone mentioned earlier, it's favour , real divine favour. Nobody can predict the VO. The best thing is to pray hard and prepare hard, I wasn't even asked about my salary or hubby's own, even, statement of acct wasn't checked, but me don finish the interview the previous day with prayer for favour. So pls reapply praying hard for favour. We eagerly await your success transcript


Thanks twingirls I've reapplied again I believe God once again this time I will say a successful story.
