zimunachimdi: Babies will seat, crawl and walk when they are ready. They need to be able to control their neck and back muscles themselves to be able to sit up unaided At 4 months most babies i.e. 95% CANNOT do that WITHOUT support! It is advised at this stage to sit them up and support their backs, head and sides with cushions and do not leave them like that for long periods or un-supervised. 6 months is the ideal time, that is also one of the reasons, weaning is also advised at 6 months as babies can control their necks and hold up their heads better at that age. 8 Likes |

Doubledouble: How old is he? Sometimes the answer is finger foods. You can cut boiled or fried yam/potatoes soft boiled carrots, toast and the like and just give him after his 4 or so spoons. He will eat it at his own pace. Try not to give too much snacks, as he may start prefering that to proper food. Also do not leave him unsupervised when he is self feeding due to the risk of choking. I always make sure i have bread at home so if my dd is being fussy which she usually isn't, i give her toast sliced to a size she can hold. And she will sit there happily sucking it, tearing it up, throwing it around and going back to pick up the pieces to eat. The only downside is the cleaning up afterwards...lol. 1 Like |

Doubledouble: potato chips and dodo. Then carrots cut very slim in long strips. Even puff puff with all its oiliness (they need the carbs and calories). Finger food baby can play with. Have you tried Spaghetti, just break it into small bits. |

kotias003: Keep pumping.it will eventually flow. 4 latching.try putting the whole black part of ur breast into baby's mouth.do it gently.once he gets a good grab of the nipple he will start sucking. If u have a big nipple try supporting ur breast by putting ur fingers under and lifting d breast to support. If ur baby isnt opening his mouth well.bring him closer to breast gently pressing his nose with the breast.he will respond by opening his mouth more. Then put ur little finger into is mouth and adjust ur nipple a little more to enable hold on to d areola more(the dark part of the breast) release the pressure.then rock him and sing to him. This is u reassuring him that he can keep sucking that mummy is here and everything will be alright. If u dont get it the first time,try again n again. Everything will be fine just take it easy. For d poo.i dont know.about d frequency.my ebf baby was pooing 6 times a day till she was 3 months.then she didnt poo for 3 days den went back to pooing once a day since den soetimes once in two days. I think as long as the poo is healthy.yellow poo no mucus or blood..its okay. U can go see a doctor if u r really worried. 6 Likes 6 Shares |

Kotias003 check madam zaynies old post she posted the fenugreek sellers num the lady waybill to me in phc. Also as per your lo not latching. I was once in your shoes. Its because he is already accustomed to bottle or cup nd spoon. What i did in my case was i forced her, my mum held her head while i was putting her to breast, we did that like twice and rite now am the one complaining of sucking. About lactating I will advice you eat more after eating get a little rest then you pump tgen drink alot of water when i say alot then it means like every 20mins 1lit. I hope it helps. All the best sis |

AlphaHandMaiden: Thanks a lot ma for your response...I can see now I spell your moniker wrong... We are 12 days shy of 13 months. I will keep trying though, have given him lots of finger foods except toast n dodo. I stopped the snacks over 3 weeks now. We tried this afternoon, he finished his beans n fish porridge...yaay!!! The cleaning up is the most annoying part...I have devised a new strategy of putting their highchairs on the mat...so, once they are through all I need clean is the mat n not the carpet...whew! Thanks once again... |

Mamas that may want to do hot steaming for their kids, do it without adding anything just the hot water is okay, use bucket instead of bowl, keep the bucket on the ground and turn baby's face towards it, cover both of you with thick towel, to do this easily local sit is advised. Your baby will sweat and the mucus must come out by force, pls use your mouth to suction it out (its your baby, don't get irritated). Do this anytime he sneeze hard with mucus. After the steaming, apply mentholatum on the chest, back, feet, ribs and palm, wear chest cover cloth for him/her. Do this morning and night, the cattarh will flee away. 1 Like |

@Ozycy and the other mama, can't remember the moniker...thanks for the heads up on the groundnut paste. I tried it yesterday and it came out real smooth and sweet...no water needed at all...downside was my preggie sis visited and insisted on peanut butter made by moi...that's how I became groundnut roaster and blender...you can mix with all sort of things, I mixed hers with olive oil and honey. Thanks once again to all mamas...I now have a freezer full with groundnut paste, by the time it runs out we would have moved on... 1 Like |

zimunachimdi: Please he's on point with his weight. Abi you want a baby you can't carry? 6.6 is a good weight for that age. Most important thing is that his growth chart is steadily climbing. Lol at the sitting thing. My baby can lift his head at three months and everybody is praising us. (You must have taken a lot of calcium etc). Traditionally, boys sit at 4 months and girls at 3 months. Oyinboally, 4 months is an assisted sitter. Why the rush self? Who sitting epp? You can never please those who want to be displeased so get rid of all the pressure. 1 Like |
