God bless u mama. How's ur prince doing? 10x for this ur post; i'm in exactly same shoe o. My son is 14m+ now. Never knew weaning a child was this hard o lol but now I jst keep asking "jst how do people do this? " cos the look my son gives me whenever I try to refuse breastfeeding him (after the plenty kicks, slaps, face scratching, deafening screams etc o) jst breaks my hrt to pieces like i'm wickeding him when the thing is there n still soaking up my clothes sef embarassed cry n I end up giving him. Even en papa don dey fight us on top ds weaning matter; everybody yaff taya for us. I promised to wean him end of this month, d month is almost gone n I still dnt have d hrt to get gangster n start d weaning process angry cry
So, mamas pls helep look this matter o
Pretimum i'm so sorry abt ur uncle. May God grant him eternal rest.

I've not weaned a child before ooo but my neighbour told me of how she weaned her son using bitter leaf. She plucked few bitter leafes, smashed it and rubbed the water that came out from it on her tips so whenever her son came to suck, he will just taste the bitter taste and run. She continued doing that for days until the toddler got tired of looking for the bitter stuff himself.
#Hope this helps#

My sis, I thought weaning a baby is a difficult task before but now, it seems its one of the simplest thing to achieve I. this journey so far. I planned to breastfeed my boy for 1year 6 myths before but different kinds of mouth here and there made me change my mind to 15 months. His father has been complaining, but I kept breastfeeding him, so few days back, his father started yabbing him of sucking, only for me to bring out breast, he looked at me and started smiling, he sucked it a bit and stopped. Another time, he looked at me put his mouth and bite my nipple, he has bitten me like 3 times now without sucking.

Now to the main issue, whenever he wakes up, I give him cereal. That will make him to sleep for like 4 hrs at a stretch. Then I give him Tea again, that take him till day break. Then Crunching Digestive biscuit whenever he feels like his mouth should be busy.
He now wake up less unlike when he was still sucking at night.

God just made it easy for me. Thank you Jesus, it can only be You.


At least, am proud to breastfeed him for 15 months.

You can try another teat. Another trick is to boil the teat till it's a bit tender.

I use avent bottles/teat with a steam steriliser which I believe over time softens the teat.

Another thing is to stick to formula brands. Once you discover a brand she likes, stick to it. I remember there was a certain time (just suddenly) my son wasn't keen on Aptamil but I kept offering it even though he would drink little and refuse the rest. After a few days, he began guzzling everything down and I even had to up the quantity with an extra 20ml.

Tanxs dear. I was using tommee tippee with steam sterilisers as well. I will get Avent and see how it goes

Gud morning mama pls how do I get rid of carrth in my 4 month old baby.

You can use saline drops. Also I put drops of silverbird eucalyptus oil on the clothes so she can inhale. It will ease off the catarrh

You wash with the conditioner instead, so add water like you want to wash and instead of shampoo, use conditioner... some will even lather up. Rinse as normal . It will remove sweat and most of the dirt if the hair is reall dirtyf or a baby, you may not even need anything else.
thanks mam. Kisses to alphababy

Be careful with the warm water thingy so baby does not start pooing only after warm water is used.
