Since you said the water in your area is not too Good, I think that's the culprit. Bm leaves a white stream on clothes which goes away completely when you wash. We have the coloured water ish too in my area so we buy water that is used to wash my baby's stuff and bathe her too. What I did when my baby has cold: mix a little metholatum with Shea butter and apply on the bridge of her nose, drops of silverbird on white hanky nd place close to her pillow when she is sleeping, hospital recommended Vitamin C and baby Piriton , steam inhalation with silverbird oil, running metholatum on her chest, back and feet and within one week, she was back to her normal self Cc @lululuv eksbabe: |

spiceeamiee: It is likely gas. Put her on her back on the bed and holding her two legs, do the bicycle movement I.e. as if she is pedalling. Also hold her legs by the ankle and push/ bend the knee into her stomach. All these may induce farting and remove the gas that is giving the discomfort. You can also bend her over your knees and pat her back. All these help more than gripe water which in my opinion is just a placebo and does absolutely nothing for babies. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Giddyperson: The poo color has even changed a little to Brown now.(TMI please). Will let you know what the doctor say sha. I didn't eat vegetables and also on that day she ate banana, chicken+ sweet potato so I think it may be teething poo as my mama say. |

The people you have told are right. It will pass. Gripe water won't do anything. As her digestive system develops she'll be able to release gas without drama but the grunting and groaning is a thing for now. The bicycle movt Queenhecate suggested will work Akorkor sorry, I find sallah meat go yesterday so I wasn't really online. Sabi mamas don talk, hope the poo is looking better now? spiceeamiee: |

J0hnTrevolt: Focus more on using disinfectant (original dettol) to rinse ALL his clothing including bedsheets and pillowcases after every wash. There are also antibacterial washing powder available that you can used to wash his clothing. Stop the use of his current body cream/lotion/oil. Stick to original Vaseline blue seal. 3 Likes |

Ammy5565: How old is your son? He might need a course of mild antibiotics. If the boil still persists, I will suggest you take him to the hospital. Boil can be very painful even for adults. You can give him paracetamol pending when you see a doctor. 1 Like |

Sabi mamas please help oh....my DD doesn't like to eat anymore. Meal time is now war time, we try not to forcefeed her but she doesn't like to eat. We have just introduced solids and most times we have to distract her with water so she can open her mouth for food to enter. I have bought frisogold, Farley's Rice cereal, her pap is with banana/apple puree with similac as the milk.....but she still won't eat. The only food she eats well is amala and ewedu, she likes boiled Fish too. Biko help oh, I have tried sweet potato and fish but no luck.....no waka pass abeg. She is 7 months old |

semilore12: At least she's eating something. Why not continue to give her what she likes rather than try to force other types of food on her. My son is 8 months old now and he just started accepting cereals willingly without tears 2 days ago! Before then, it's been formula and breastmilk alone. And then it occurred to me that he probably was not ready for a these foods that I was trying to force him to eat. My advice would be to give her time. Continue to give her what she likes to eat, then every now and then, try again to see if she will willingly take the other food. 3 Likes |
