Staph kwanu? Chei I'm laughing so hard here

Prettyhurts:


Is inu wo, colic? That's how my DD had colic then and my MIL said it was staphylococcus and brought her colorful medicine(twas smelling garlic and ginger) that my SIL gave it to her children. I just handbagged my DD anywhere I go,she complained tire that too much education is disturbing me, that I'm not even a pharmacist. Thank God for hubby that warned her, if not my matter for don reach village. She's still my paddy even though she ignored me cos of that.

I tried colipan, didn't work for me(made her to pass gas), I laid her on her tummy, burping after feeding and waited it out.

Sorry dear, is a phase.

since your LO is on medication, why not watch for the next 2-3 poos. If it remains bright green, you may need to speak to another pead to put your mind at rest.

Please what is your definition of jedijedi cos means different things to different people o.

The fact that she isn't sucking well, are you sure she would accept something else? At 3 months, all the baby needs is milk. If you want to introduce formular, then it depends on how much you can afford.

Y not introduce formula and hold off on the frisogold rice for now. Ur baby needs more of milk than solids at 3 months+

there are so many formula in the market to choose from; SMA Gold, NAN, Aptamil, Enfamil, Lactogen, Similac etc

Please try to find why she's not feeding well. Leave cereal till she's 6 months old but if your LO isn't feeding well with breastmilk, formula might not make a difference

Mamas good morning. My baby has been throwing up since every fees yesterday evening because someone fed her ice cream yesterday. Ice-fucking-cream! Who Does that? Who feeds a 5week old baby Ice cream? My 47years old Sister in law that you expect would know better. I'm literally shaking as I'm remembering this. Now my baby is throwing up at every feed. She throws up every thing she is fed and starts crying and then I have to feed her again and she throws up and starts crying. This is how it has been since last night. We would do n go to the hospital, just waiting for hubby to come and pick us up but she has managed to sleep and I'm wondering if anybody has any remedy for me.

Meanwhile, make una help me judge this matter as I'm about to go off tangent and insult somebody not minding she is almost 20years older than me. My husband comes from a large family of 9children and he is the last born and you know how large families are. Although they same mother and father, kwanta dey plenty so I dey try stay on my lane but I'm very close to my husband's immediate elder sister who had her baby 's birthday yesterday so everyone was there. I was in the sitting room with my baby but tge party was downstairs so this my eldest SIL (let's call her A) comes up with their eldest brother's daughter who is 9months and she starts feeding her ice cream. I did not say anything but in my mind I felt it was wrong. About 30mins later, I wanted to go downstairs and take something so I have my bay to my husband's cousin. Less than 10mins ,I was back and I saw my baby smacking her lips with A trying to scoop more ice cream into her mouth. To say i was she'll shocked is an understatement. This is a 5weeks old baby for pete' s sake!! How are you feeding her ice cream? I quickly dashed and carried my baby from her and said (not to her face though but loud enough for her to hear) that she should never try that with my baby. I angrily left for a friend's house close by and did not return to the party until my husbAnd was ready to leave. Now SIL A married quite late and does not have a child. That is where I entered trouble. I was told she went downstairs where the party was and started crying that she carried my baby and I insulted her, that is it because she does not have a child? That I shunned her snd told her never to touch my child. Hubby called to know where I was and he came and I explained to him. He told me not to pick any of his siblings calls and we went home. Everyone started calling hubby telling him to put his wife in check, that how can I insult A who is almost 20yrs older than me? Hubby told them that she fed out baby Ice cream and they said and so what? God knows I did not say any of those things. I only said no one should ever in their life feed my baby if I'm not there. Now MIL and FIL are saying I must go to her house and kneel down and apologise. I have told my husbAnd I'm not going. Now baby is throwing up and feeling lethargic all cos someone that should have known better fed her something she should not eat and I'm being asked to apologise for being protective of my own child. I don't want to apologise but I'm being pressured to on all sides and its driving me nuts!

@quoted!!! Please DO NOT GIVE. Only formula and Breastmilk will do at this stage. Some people introduce cereal as early as four month but it is advisable in western world that it should be introduce by SIX month because at that stage their immune system will be stronger to digest and reject some stuff.

My dear i understand how you feel especially now that baby is reacting to the stuff.
Pls for the sake of peace, go and apologize to her. She is trying to black mail u emotional and for the fact that she is yet to have her own kids, everybody will believe whatever she says. It is not good to contend with in laws esp the ones as big as yours, it wears one out .
Just explain to her dat u never meant to hurt her feelings but dat u are just angry because baby is still too young to be fed such.
Like u said maybe she is actually ignorant of how to take care of babies, since she is still inexperienced.
Don't worry, ur baby will be fine.

Omg! Ice cream?! 5 week old baby!

My sis,pls just go and beg her(shebi na wetin she want be dat). I know its hard to do but 4d sake of peace(in your home o). Bcus if anything arises tmrw,yr hubby can confidently & comfortably DEFEND you. Ppl like her can be very tricky and blackmails emotionally. She will understand better wen she have ger own baby.

Smtinlmes IF ders misunderstanding btw sm1 & i,after i explain to my hubby he'll just say "go and apologise o or else na yr own dem go see"! But hubby usually talks & warns them not to mess up with me but me oh,for my body & heart,i go js dey "my lane",ive gat nothing to do with them anymore!
I know exactly hw u r feeling right now bcus no mother wouldnt protect her child & also apologising-for wat u arr not guilty off is hard bu 4 peace' sake in you OWN HOME.
I hope i made sense o

@spiceeamiee, u saw her giving a 9momths old baby ice cream, u didn't tell her that it's not ideal for the baby just because it was nt ur child. Am sure she never knew it was wrong. If u Ve politely tell, she won't give it to your baby.

Take it or leave it, your action was not too OK. People like are always emotional wth little things.
Pls go and apologize to let peace eign
