My baby also have rashes and my neighbour recommended moju powder, is it ok for rashes... My baby has this boil at the back of his head, they burst it and puss came out last week. But since this week I noticed that the boil is spreading, and so we took him to the hospital today, doctor prescribed drugs for us ERYTHROMYCIN AND VEMFEM, but am still scared of giving him the drugs. pls has any mama experience such. Thanks, my baby would be 1 month on Sunday, he is too young for drugs. |

christybabe:Pls talk to a pediatrician bfr administering those drugs,erythromycin esp. Its kinda nasty(from my experience) and d pediatrician asked me to discontinue immediately wen my daughter started complaining of stomach upset and throwing up. It wasn't a nice experience. If its a pediatrician dt prescribed it I suggest u try seek anoda opinion. |

christybabe: My 2 daughters also had this issue which is always peculiar with babies.What we use is natural antimicrobial creams like PROPOLIS CREAM,ALOE GELLY & ALOE LIPS. We mixed them together and it helps a lot despite the fact it took time but it worked. |

Good morning beautiful mums, I am new here and urgently needs ur advice. My one month old baby has blocked nostrils I have use silverbird, nasal drop (otrivin) and steam her body. She is neither coughing nor feverish, pls what else can I do. She also have mucor (ipin) coming out of her right eye. Thanks |

ginababy: please do not use cotton bud ever again. that thing does more harm than good. ear infection just like common cold are some of the things some babies face in their first one year. most times the discharge stops on it own without the use of antibiotics. keep an eye on it for a day or two. if you still notice the discharge, then see your doctor. no, i do not think co-sleeping has anything to do with ear infection. make sure while bathing him that you do not allow water or soap get into his ears. |

Moboz:U can get vitamin C drop for her and make sure u always drop baby oil on dat soft spot of her head don't allow the spot to get dry at all. Apply mentholatum on her chest and back, foot and palm, wear chest covered cloth for her. pls don't expose her. This phase will surely pass away. As for d eye discharge, clean with warm water and cotton wool don't use bare hand to wipe. if it persits don't hesitate to see her doctor. 3 Likes |

Moboz: are you sure you are using original silverbird? get the original silverbird and dilute about a capful of it with coconut or olive oil. then apply the diluted silverbird on her crown. that is, on her head. it works like a charm and clears blocked nose with the nasal drop, use it sparingly as using too much will irritate her nostrils and make the congestion worse. get mentholatum and apply it on her feet before putting her socks on. i wont worry too much about the discharge from her eyes. just wipe it clean gently with a moist cloth. it should clear on its own. if she's being exclusively breast fed, breast feed her often (make sure you are eating well- lots of fruits and vegetables as you pass on essential nutirients to her). if she's not on EBF, then ensure she's being fed the right amount of formula and also about 10ml of warm water once a day 4 Likes |

christybabe: all these rashes are caused by over dressing/over wrapping a baby. nigeria's weather is really hot and babies do not need layers and layers of clothing. i have mentioned it here that even the woolen hat, i was told to stop wearing it for my son by day 3. in addition to this, my son's bath regime has been this from day 1 - boots baby liquid soap, dettol (specifically bought from nigeria and i do not understand why people claim dettol is too 'strong' for babies. savlon does nada !!), coconut oil for his skin and sebamed shampoo for his hair (introduced at 3 months as i had previously used boots shampoo). till date, he has not had any rash, boil, pimple, cradle cap or anything. i am guessing those drugs are antibiotics and there's really nothing you can do at this stage but to give them to him since the boil is spreading. at one month, he is not too young for drugs, if he's got an infection, it has to be treated with antibiotics which is why mums have to be proactive and be on guard and try as much as possible to stop these infections in the first place. 3 Likes |

Moboz: MIL told me the stuffed nose is nothing to worry about, it will clear in time. Traditional explanation is that water entered baby's nose in the womb. Doctor also dismissed my concerns. I've tried suctioning (both with frida and with mouth) but no catarrh coming out. I've just bought saline drops sha, will use tonight. |

Hello mamas in the house , Pls I need your assistance with my 2months old babie, she started coughing yesterday and catarrh too. So i did steam inhalation for her with a lil eucalyptus oil in the water. ..mucus came out of the nose tho but the cough still persist and itz getting uncomfortable for her. Please what can you suggest I use for her? Cc: Zaynie pls can I do sugar and palm oil solution for her at 2months. Thanks |
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by helovesme(f): 12:51pm On Aug 13, 2016 |
osas4g: Give her warm water. You can also apply metholatum on her chest, back and sides. There are mild metholatum for babies so look for one. However, if the cough is "chesty", please take her to the hospital to see the doctor. He will check/listen to her breathing and ask certain questions and then decide whether or not she needs mild antibiotics. |

helovesme: I'm sure it's d water n soap while bathing him dat caused d ear infection. As at yesterday d ear was bringing out purse n very painful too + fever bt subsided in d evening after I administered d first dose of d ear drop d doc prescribed 4 us n dis mrng der was no fever, no trace of liquid from the ear. We were also given antibiotic n asked to give 5ml bt I'm giving him 2.5ml. I'll do exactly as you advised. Tnx a bunch. |

Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by helovesme(f): 2:40pm On Aug 13, 2016 |
ginababy: My dear, why na? Doctor prescribed 5ml so why reduce it? For the doctor to have prescribed both ear drops and antibiotics for a baby that young , it means on checking your baby's ears there was a lot of pus/discharge. Please stick to your doctor's prescription of 5ml. Also ensure you complete the total number of days you've been asked to administer the antibiotics. It's important to effectively administer the antibiotics as this will ensure the infection is totally gotten rid off and also prevent further future complications. Eg. Partial deafness. 3 Likes |
