Good morning Mitchyy
Please did you mix the Shea butter/perm kernel oil together till you got a smooth paste, or is it separately you use it?

Please can you upload a picture of what the cream looks like?

Also, I was told at the hospital not to use soap and powder on baby till after 6 months. Is this normal?

Yes, you mix it on your palm and then apply.

When i get home i'll modify this post and upload a pic. You have to look for the original palm kernel oil. My mum sends the original one for me every month. It's light brown, while the fake is black.

Not to use soap on baby? I've never heard that o. Baby soap was even part of my hospital list

Comtem2011, Pintoxx, thanks mamas!!!

phunmykay:
@mompurity2 your boys are too cute to be ignored,well done..
@sabi MAMA n.papa pls can I introduce pap,cereals and formula to my ds he is 5months2weeks but he now sucks extraordinary now e my br*ast is cry for help,he is on EBF

Just bear for the remaining 2 more weeks till they reach the 6month mark.
You can introduce formula now if you wish. No one takes home a medal for 6months EBF, it is just a recommendation.

But for the pap and cereal, just chill a little. Please. Pele

thank you so much ma. Will try all you said

gud moni mamas, pls help oooo d manual breast pump I bought no pump out milk oooo cud it be because of my big burst or because of my flat nipples

Mitchyy are you Lagos based? Can I get the palm kernel oil from you?
Funny enuf that was the only cream my mum ever used.

Mitchyy can ur MIL jus make crayfish n soya and fish for me.no corn.so i jus be adding to d already made pap.please help me ask her.2 weeks more to 6months mark

faari:
This gas thing is beginning to get to me.
1) She grunts and stretches anything she wants to pass gas, and now she'd fold her legs when she pees. I was told infacol or gripe water but we dey EBF and I'm worried about giving it to her. and someone else said nospamin

2) And she has this wheezing thing she does when she eats or sleeps. I complained but was told nothing in her throat, two days after the attached picture came put of my baby, twice. Thick mucus. And The wheezing I can still hear it but reduced though. I have been giving her vitc once daily, started three days ago.

3),What can I use oo. And one more thing, she doesn't suck that well. I'd even force her to suck after five minutes and she will begin to cry. Five minutes and she's done, will remove her mouth and off to sleep. What can I do? I am lactating enough and I even learnt to express the foremilk out a bit before I breastfeed so that the little she takes is d hindmilk. She sleeps and sleeps and sleeps. Feeds inky like five times in a day, maybe twice at night, even with abidec.

3) when she feeds these days, she poos while or right after feeding and it is green and a lil foamy. She hardly poos now and only when she feeds or just fed.

4) what can i use for diaper rash? Its this red patch on her vulva and butthole. Should i change hee diaper? We used huggies withe a ribbed effect and now we use one without. Someone recommeded Pampers premium.


She is 6 weeks old now.
Please help ooo.

1.My LO grunts and farts as well. I think its normal
2. Same thing. He only does that while sleeping at night and by morning he's OK again. His pediatrician checked him and said he was OK.
3. My LO used to do same. Falls asleep after 2 mins and I was told his father did same thing. So I try to wake him up by rubbing his cheeks, hands or legs ..change his diaper in between feeding, burp him etc. Also I tried to feed him with bottle 2ice a day. With the bottle, even when he sleeps off I just remove the bottle and put it back in his mouth and he continues sucking. He sucks for longer now.
4. Diaper rash, sudocream. Then use petroleum jelly to prevent the rash. Change her diapers often.

Prayer time!

Our heavenly Father, We bless you today. We thank you Lord for your faithfulness, your mercy and love towards us. We come before you to appreciate you for your grace upon our families.

Indeed, we are grateful, ancient of days our hearts are filled with gratitude, for you alone have seen us through from January to February, your grace kept us from March to April, your mercy took us from May to June, your Love has been a banner over us from July to August, you have been our very present help from September till now. We exhort you because we know that you will see us thru the remaining of the year even as we put our trust in you.

Thank you Lord, for how far you have brought our husbands and kids. We bless you because as we go about our activities in the remaining of this year, we will gain speed. Lost opportunities will be recovered. Restoration will come to us and our household. Our heaven will remain open and our earth will continue to produce.

Favour will attend our ways. The treasures of darkness and riches in secret places will gravitate to us and our families. We will see no more disappointment neither will we be stranded. Our meal barrels will not be empty.
They will speak concerning our kids in high places and our kids will stand with the enemies at the gate, no evil will befall them in the name of Jesus
Amen.

I'm thinking of trying dove sensitive but I'm a bit concerned about it getting to my son's eyes as this is sometimes inevitable during bath time.

Please does it contain a "no tears" formula? I know it's technically not a baby's soap or marketed as one.

There is a Dove Baby soap (it's more common in the U.S. though), but Dove Pure and Sensitive isn't a tear-free formula.

Pretimum and rofemiguwa, Amen to your prayers and thank you for saying them.

For the mums exchanging tips about the electrix breastpumps, those prices are quite high (and will probably climb higher). If I may make a suggestion, in the U.S. you can actually loan the expensive breastpumps, all you need to do is buy the suction plastics and sterilise everything else. Perhaps some mothers may be willing to do this, I for one cannot see myself paying over N150,000 for an apparatus I won't be using for upto a year.

Ganjababe:
Dear Sabi mama's,
Please, my baby will be 6 months in 2 weeks. What solid can I be giving him by then? He's currently taking Pap. Only milk is not enough
N.B: I tried giving him Gerber rice but he doesn't take it well, except if mixed with the Pap and Milk (messy right?). I know but he seems to take the combination well

Do a search, there have been numerous posts of weaning foods, ideas and tips.
Seach for key words like weaning, puree, cereal

You can try page 529 and read the pages before and after if you cant find by search.

@ ahnie welcome back,howz big zino dooing.warm regardsregards
@ helovesme greetings ma,good to see u now frequent here.weldone!howz big boy

rofemiguwa:
Mitchyy can ur MIL jus make crayfish n soya and fish for me.no corn.so i jus be adding to d already made pap.please help me ask her.2 weeks more to 6months mark

Yes she can. She can customize the soya meal and include or exclude any ingredient you need.

Let me know the quantity you need. I'll advise you buy just little first to see if your baby accepts it, before buying more, to avoid wasting money.

We can talk via Whatsapp 07039796890

Yes i am. I'll have to ask my mum to buy yours and add to it when sending. What's the quantity you need?

The woman sells the small nestle bottle water size for 1500.

I was against my mum using it initially but now i'm very grateful.
