TEEKAY2000:

Was the drug prescribed by a paediatrician? Am 100% sure a Paediatrician can never prescribed cough syrup for babies...pls mothers when we take our kids to hospitals we should always ensure to be seen by a Paediatrician .

YES Its 100% Pediatrician and its not even NIGERIA ma.
Note: I have never taken my baby to any other doctor apart from Pediatrician.

Ha! Thank you o cc @hunniesuzie, @ Abiagirl777. Why is there no course called ChildCare 101 where they teach these things so new mothers dont don't have to worry unnecessarily?

Jina24:


You baby is fine and her poop is within range. No probs at all

Thank you ma :l

blackFTM:


Personally I think it is normal because according to science their stomach is yet to develop to a level that food can stay very well. For the next month expect poo as she eats. Its only recently that my 4 month old started pooing once a day and sometimes he won't for like three days. So don't beat it. It is normal

Because the syllabus is different for every child. You will have to buy new handout for each new child... lol!

@giddyperson, @naomi14, everybori. Im about to give up on breastfeeding. My milk supply has refused to be reliable. My baby was patient at the beginning when there was almost nothing coming out such that i had to supplement with formula to stop weight loss Ive drank so much ogi that if u cut me ogi might flow before blood so dont even volunteer that advice again. She's no longer patient to suck such that even now that its flowing beta than before, she will beat my bt and start crying if its not fast enough. N once she's annoyed, na 1hour + cry be that.

My ability to sleep at night is disappearing before my very eyes. Cos she used to be content to suck bt from 8pm till daybreak. Last night i had to make a bottle before she could eat enough to go back to sleep. I want to know if there's any other solution before i give up n face formula only.

Don't feel bad about you've tried already.If you wish to supplement you can.l,it doesn't make you less a mother.the koko is that baby is healthy and reaches her milestones.

sexyjuly:
thanks ma.i appreciate ur kind response n suggestions.

not only skineal is dangerous. funbact A, visita as well.they are used to treat skin conditions and are easily absorbed by the skin.
If you must mix the ori, please use either coconut oil, palm kernel oil, vaseline blue seal, olive oil.
Alternatively there are a wide range of baby products available. chicco,pears,zimzim,johnsons,etc
the milder, the better

thanks for d kind advice bella would surely do as u said.

U sound like me exactly. I went from c cup to f cup bras. Of what use is this kain size? I tot it will be pouring like ocean.
My usual routine,bt milk after bottle feed then her Last bottle feed after her 8pm bath then from 12pm till 6am she feeds twice on bt milk but last two nights, maybe her appetite has increased, na im she no gree suck. She will put her mouth to it, decide its not enough and cry like i have offeneded her spirit.

I will try expressing during the day as suggested while she's taking formula. Ill also look for fenugreek cos ure the second person telling me about that. Lol @20months.

Liftedhands:
You don't have to give it up! Some women just don't lactate well no matter what efforts they apply. Keep offering both .

Mine too didn't flow well despite having breast made for ten women.

What I did was to feed my son formula every 3hrs and breast milk in between! Breast milk wasn't our main meal and we did just fine.

Formula feed stops at 8pm daily and he will suck whenever he he wakes up till 8am when I make his bottle of milk! We still breast feed anyways at 20months *covers face*

However try some of this.
Fenugreek powder.
Moringa tea.
Uda pepper soup.
Bitter leaf soup cooked with cocoyam.
And see if any will work for you.

Naomi14:
@reniduke, don't give up nau! Rice and tea works for me. Try what this mama said. Am sure it will flow better but if it doesn't, continue with formula so your lo doesn't go hungry.

Please explain. Mix rice with tea and drink ? Or tea after rice?

Abiagirl777:


continue ma,he will come around eventually.mine lasted up to a mth,it was so bad dAT dh used to massage my back cos of pains while trying to make him latch on,we even visited the hospital where the paed examined his mouth and my tips then told me that he'd come around.just persevere...

thank you so much ma

Its as if you're here oo. Everything u have said i do. Except for freezing expressed milk. Its not plenty like that. I used to give her any that i express asap so i stopped expressing and just feed her. I dont want to do strictly formula and i like as she was switching from formula to bt with ease. Im at my wits end cos it seems every two weeks im back in this insufficient bt milk supply phase.

AlphaHandMaiden:



Why not give formular as her last meal before bed so she can sleep longer and you too can relax a bit.

If she wakes at night you can try breast feeding.

During the day: you can alternate formular and breast feed, if giving formular and you have help, let someone else feed her and you go and express so your supply can be maintained. Inbetween the formular feed, you can breast feed.

You can freeze the expressed breast milk and use at a later date.

Also try not to wait she is visibly hungry before breast feeding her, since the lil' diva is impatient. That way everybody is in a relaxed mode!

Drink loads of fluids, especially water as you are breast feeding or expessing, it helps a lot.

Pele! If you still decide to go strictly formular, there is nothing wrong with that as well.

Lol! Normal Rice with stew then tea. My breast will full eh, it will even be pouring. try it. Your own baby wants to eat, my lo doesn't like to eat. She sucks for only 7mins in 2-3hrs. The rest will just be pouring out

ride on darling! Ekene needs all the breastmilk..lol

20months is good; I wonder why boys find it hard to give up... my son is 27months and he still sucks! I'm not worried cos the milk is sufficient for him and his sister and since it's still available to the sis, why hoard it from him...efforts I made in time past didn't stop him so I gave up! any day both of them are tired, let them stop

kisses to my handsome Ekene

I think All babies do both. No need to be concerned unless there are other issues. It's sha your right to watch her sleep at night. I used to do same for my baby. As the old song goes who sat and watched my infant head when sleeping on my cradle bed my mother

u can mix ori with skineal or funbact. The ori will be much like a size of medium relaxer container with 2skineal or funbact A. No side. Effect

Please stop this! No side effects you boldly say? Do you know what steroids are and how bad long term use can be to an adult how much more an infant?

TWO TUBES EVEN!?

I have been seeing people write no side effects, no side effects.

Side effects are not always immediate, or visible.

Sometimes it's gradual, it could take months or even years of using a product or consuming a food before one sees the side effect.

You might think baby is apparently doing well, but that might not be the case.

So because your baby doesn't have an immediate reaction doesn't always mean it's safe.
