Mamas in the house, good afternoon ma, how are our babies, toddlers and children doing?

l just want to be enlightened, my son(almost four months) is putting virtually every thing that comes his way in his mouth, hands, clothes, anything even if na phone

i'm of the opinion that he might be teething....


Dharyor1234 darl, how's my baby doing?
As for the putting stuff in the mouth, I guess is normal for growing babies to do that as my 9month old still does that teething or no teething.
Just make sure things within his reach are clean like teething rings etc. Pls put phones away as they can carry bacteria and we don't want that for your cutie.
If he is drooling, it might be teething and for me, I don't use teething drugs, if temp is high, I use cool cloth to clean his body with my thermometer nearby, too high, I use panda and watch it.
Cheers.

try strepsil for the sore throat. There's one strepsil that contains honey and paracetamol or something. You can also drink a tablespoon full of palm kernel oil it feels good on the throat

Good evening world people.. Plz I need help. My 2weeks old baby girl has some rashes on her neck. She is quit fleshy down there (neck area) .. It hurts her more when the room is hot ( I almost cried with her this afternoon).. My sister recommended ABF3 cream for me to apply on the affected area. I don't know if her skin is ready enough for such creams. Plz if anyone has conquered this situation, Biko help me out here.. Thanking you all in advance

This just made me laugh my first kid was like that for a long time. What I used to do was that when I get up I will just arrange pillow by his side so when he is using hand to look for me and he touches the pillow he will sleep back thinking am still by his side.

No ma,your child doesnt need the help of any drug to teeth,its a natural process and so will happen with or without any drug.you could help him by getting him "teething rings" which he can chew on and If there's a case of fever,you could also give paracetamol.

Thank you ooo jare....

baby tribotan is good. Since she's fleshy it might be heat rashes caused by folds in the neck. Buy agnesia powder and make sure the area is never wet by applying constantly. You can use tribotan morning and night and use agnesia all through the day.

Pls use baby tribotan but mix with shea butter cos it will burn ur baby's neck if u use it alone.

PRUNE JUICE or prum is the answer for stooling for children. Get the fruit and do it yourself. He won't have trouble poooing again. My friend daughter used it and I even use it as an adult after I gave birth for easy passage being recommended by my pediatrician . I have it in my fridge too in case my baby has any form of constipation.

You should be able to get it in any big mall like shoprite, Game and any one around you. They may call it prum or prune. Or buy the juice one but please make sure it's 100% prune if you are buying juice

Crush ginger, soak in hot water, add lemon/lime and honey..
Drink, gurgle.
It always works cos ginger has strong anti-inflammatory properties, lemon is a good antioxidant and disinfectant and honey is just soothing and sweet grin

So glad to read all the wonderful advice here from all the mommas in the house; though am a father with a 3 weeks old baby, i always look foward to this page to read and pass the wonderful info to my wifey. Please this is our worry;
My baby suddenly started having rashes on her forehead, dosctor says we should not cover her too much because shes big (4.2 at birth) and we heed that advice. My wife suddenly develop cold/cough/catarrh and i was scared that she will pass it on to our baby, took mum to hospital and shes getting better but within 48 hours, baby started having running nose; its so painful to see her struggle with breath. But her appetite is good, shes EBF and she feeds well and poo well( like 4 times a day). My MIL sometimes put her mouth in my babys nose to suck out the mucus sometimes(i dont knw if this is right) and baby feels good for a while b4 she will starting running her nose again, she does not sleep well as before. We only give her Vit C every 3 hour and Panda cold/paracetamol. Rashes due to heat and now catarrh due to cold AT THESAME TIME. Pls advice.
N.B I'm also planning to take her to the hospital on mon or tue, preferably a general hospital because i notice that our private hospital does not have childrens doc(peadetrician).

Hello daddy. Cold /catarrh may also be as a result of infection, not necessarily exposure although exposing a child aggravates it. For the rashes use baby tribotan. As for covering up, try to keep baby in cotton clothes, don't use wool cap or those wool shawls, also avoid direct fan/AC
MIL sucking the catarrh is the best way to relieve baby as she cannot blow her nose yet. Also do steam bath, get a bucket of hot water, add 1/2 drops of eucalyptus oil to the water and let your wife carry the baby. Cover both of them with a big cloth so they can inhale the steam. It will clear both their noses. If symptoms persist after 3 days, she may need antibiotics so to the doctor
