Pele
Try steam inhalation with eucalyptus oil aka silverbird. Or put few drops of silverbird on her bib or in her cot so she can inhale it
keep her warm too
Vitamin c will also help her
Saline drops will decongest her nose

Read about your struggle with feeding her solids
Try giving your dh to feed her
Today my ds finished a whole bowl of cereal and cried for more! Guess who feed him? My dh.
Thank u will do dem dis weekend.I pray she gets better cos I can't stand it anymore

It may just be that the mucus that clogs the nostrils of newborns has not drained fully. This stuff happened with my 2nd LO and I was told that it will drain with time. It was worrisome cos it was hard to watch my LO look like he couldnt breath while suckling. It went away on its own. Be patient. Kids are different .If there is no other distress baby will be fine





Amen, thanks mama.please like when did it disappear

Seriously, this issue of a creche made me come out. I went to check my DD at creche today and unfortunately she vomited twice, first time was when i was about carrying her, she vomited her banana puree, the second time i wanted to feed her breast milk, i noticed she dint want to suck; thank God i didn't put nipple in her mouth, she just vomited "Big time" the second time the sweet potato puree i told them to give her. From just two days i started creche with my baby, i noticed her tummy is always full, its like they love packing food for their Tommy.

This morning, her teacher was telling me i should be putting more food for her after i put Banana puree for fruit, sweet potato mixed with crayfish and 12 ounce breast milk with formula oooo. She said i may be adding Tom Brown and i was like (Seriously for a six month baby?) She doesn't eat much like that now. I have never seen my baby vomiting so much like these. Am so worried? @enque, feddy27.

For the vomitting, maybe they just finished feeding her not long before you carried her. Also do they burp her when she finishes her food?
2 things triggers my dd's vomitting....if she doesn't sit up or rest after eating, and if you try to carry her immediately after eating. So we leave her sitting for like 20-30 mins after meal before anyone tries to carry her.

You know what quantity of food your baby eats on a good day, so pack what you are sure that she can finish. She just started solids na, so take it easy...one day at a time. All that food plus tom brown again?? Haba na! I think its a bit much...except maybe she won't eat dinner when u guys get home.

how long does she stay at the creche??

Sooooo mamas let me share my experience this week !

Dd has been having a bit of congestion and we suspected that she may have a sore throat as well. It was generally ok during the day, however at night there were a few wheezing moments.

So i tuesday, i stayed home to watch her as she was really not her usual self. I noticed she was breathing very loudly and seemed to be using a lot of energy taking in deep breaths. Plus her cough just sounded nasty! ( note: this is after all the steam inhalation, olbas, eucalyptus combo for 3 days oh)

So i took her to the local doctor.... that was where i was told, we need to call you an ambulance. If she appears to have breathing difficulty, it needs to be treated as an emergency!

Eh hen! Ok oh. Before i could say "aturupoyoyo" Out came the nebuliser with steriods being administered and we even got the full siren treatment to the larger hospital. I have never been attended to so quickly in my life..lol!

Long story short she had Croup! Which is a a result of a viral cough, but it causes the airways to be inflamed and swell up resteicting the flow of air. Symptoms are difficulty breathing and "barking" cough - which basically sounds like a high pitched bark. She had to have an oral steriod administered to reduce the swelling and low and behold the child that was doing wan-kind before was now running amok and scattering the whole hospital.

It apparently usually affects children between 6mo - 5 yrs and ranges in seriousness from mild to moderate and severe. older children and adults may have it but it hardly developes into severe cases. And it happens mostly or starts at night.

Just thought to share in case it may help anyone.

DD is doing good now.


Thank God she is better now.

Maybe I need to take my lo to the hospital too. He was coughing non stop this morning. The one with phlegm abi mucous , i'm not exaggerating o, vomited the formula I gave him. I'm sure he would have sore throat cos even as an adult, i cant cough like that and not have sore throat. I couldn't even dress him heavily like i use to cos his body was quite warm but as at the time I was dropping him off at the creche, the consistency of the cough had reduced. I started giving him the sugar and palm oil this morning. I hope it gets better, but if the reverse is the case I think I will have to take him to the pediatrician tomorrow morning. He has been having difficulty breathing around early morning due to his nose being blocked and would sometimes breathe through his mouth. His breathing doesn't have that wheezing sound though.

@ Suzy: be patient, it is not easy to be a mom of a picky eater. I have 2 picky eaters, but i'll suggest you keep trying till you get what your LO enjoys. First deworm him/her, then try Farley's Heinz premium rice cereal. Start with little quantities and see, a lot of picky eaters like it. its about 1200- 1900, depends on where you live.

Will surely try this.

I take 3 spoon full in his plate and slowly mix water. I dilute the water so it's not too hot.

Just put small quantity of water, then mix and see how thick it is. Then you can adjust to your preference by adding more water but add little by little
Usually if I make it too watery, feeding becomes too messy. So when it's too watery, I just add a spoon or 2 of cerelac

i think the trick to avoiding watery cereal is adding water gradually, watching the consistency as you mix.
