The guests wont arrive at the same time so the program of events seems just right for an indoor gathering(i assume).... Make sure you have music in the background and the adults will be gisting anyway. The children you may entertain with cartoons or building blocks

As per walking, he will walk at his pace. leave him it's nothing to fret over. Same for teeth too wink

Thanks a lot. Esp the entertaining the children part, they definitely can't sit all just looking. smiley

@Megilicious and FexCathy: Thanks for your encouragement. Sincerely I felt so bad yesterday,even had to leave work early.

I can totally relate to this! It is probably colic. Pls try as much as possible to burp him after each feed. You can place him on his stomach facing ur laps and rub his back gently just to get rid of gas. Also you can reduce your milk intake cos it could be affecting him also. Don't worry mama, it's a phase and it will surely pass! God bless ur LO...

Hello yummy mummies.

Pls help me out. My 6month old poops 3 to4 time's in 24hrs. Sometimes it seeps through his diapers sometimes not. This has been on for a while now. He takes formula and friso cereal. Pls is this normal? Plus he has been crying a lot since yesterday. Could he be teething?

Good evening mummies, how are the lo. Please i am worried, my 7+ months old son has been stooling for 2 weeks now. Loose stole immediately after feeding. I took him to the hospital and he was given emgyl, antibiotics but the antibiotics made it worse so i was told to stop and give onky the emgyl. He is taking zinc 10mg and we v finished the last dose(10th one) today but the stoll has not stopped. He is currently feeding on only cerelac rice cereal and nutriben 4 cereals. These are the things he eats before and he use to poo like once in 3 days before. What can i do abeg as he is now lean. He refuse ors. He is crawling, has 2 teeth, hyperactive as well.

The milk in his cereals maybe aggravating the stools. See if you can give meals without milk for now pap is good for eg
then isomil is soy and may be used for this period. Till the stools stop.

@ sheweezy, hope his utensils r properly washed? Better still u can try changing his cereal, try friso cereal its very good with my baby sha. Hope the stooling has reduced.

Happymama most people start from 5 months, although I heard it delays their milestones.

I tink u should cont bf more frequently, since he s stil 2 months. Or u can try aptamil if ur baby is on formular.
Other mamas wil contribute aswel.

Mamas Biko answer her ooo!
I still use Johnson for my 22month old and her sis uses Baby aquaphor .
Y not try the famous sebamed, if you don't want to use the baby one you can try the one for adults. Either one of them should work fine for your children.



thanks maam,i thought of it too but was hoping to hear othet mama's experience.will try d sebamed

[quote author=hajarahbadmus post=42118500]@beryl thanks for the ideas.. I am really grateful. I was just thinking its quite early for him to start colouring..
I will get more videos for him.. I have some story books on my phone nd he enjoys listening nnd flipping d pages.. in fact whn he is engrossed, I must not touch it. he is learning how to operate it sef.
teachers nd educationists in d house please come to my aid

dunny.. my boy also broke out with measles lastweek. but if u c his skin, u wont know. wht I dd was: I stopped sponge whn I observed nd wasusing only soap for him morning nd night. I used his sebamed, calamine lotion nd 7keys herbal mixture..
After d episode, I continued with d soap nd adin dudu (made from palmoil) no regrets..
u can try sebamed soap nd original coconut oil as
his cream. then let him take cucumbers nd carrots.. the benefits r great for skin rejuvenation . I used to soak cucumbers in my Los water during d episode. .

God bless u.i tried getting d original coconut oil here in abj bt d one i bought also gave them rashes nd hubby said i shld stop it.i will gt d sebamed soap nd lotion for them.wt do u think?

Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by shiller(f): 5:14pm On Jan 23, 2016
ma,wat i learnt here as home remedy for colic is
During bath,masage his belly wt warm/ hot water(nt too hot)....
Always use ur hand to rub his belly(anticlockwise)....
Use his leg as if ur riding a bicycle....dat it reduces gas,it also works 4me too

oda mamas wil contribute.

I also read somewhere that it's dehydration
Chinwendym massage baby's tummy with hot water and the old women around me also taught me to pour warm water over babys anus and it also works like magic. Baby Josh likes it and whenever i do that he even poops

Give him breastmilk, then more BREASTMILK, plus additional breastmilk. That's all he needs and its more dan enuf.

Could it be dryness? Maybe you should shampoo with regular baby shampoo and oil the scalp with coconut oil and/or shea butter

@missmalachi, your baby will sit when she is really.
If there was a way to post video, I would have shown you my baby refusing to sit at almost 6 months that was in May. I saw him took his first step in August. So please don't feel bad.

Yes oo. My baby was 7 months when I became pregnant.
It's not going to be too easy but you will definitely cope. Is she still breastfeeding?

The Lord is your muscle.
