angeltolly: Does it have a pus. Is it very long? Please see his doctor. My doctor did a minor surgery on dd when she has it. But hers was longer. In two days it healed. It is well. |

helovesme:This is how i expected it to be o, all the excess preparation to enter just makes me uncomfortable. Anyway, as long as they still sha let me enter, the next few days I'd just start to sit there and breastfeed for over one hour and see whats really going on. When I came on my creche inspection tour, I saw that they had enough hands, and even had cameras which I could request to see, which was an added bonus and they kept repeating that they had an open-door policy as if it was such a favor to have one, schools that have open door policy didn't even make as much noise. |

Giddyperson: Apologies for late response. I have just picked this up in my mentions. I laydown to breastfeed and my most comfortable method is to breastfeed with the left breast. that is, baby sleeping on my left side. I make sure there are no loose clothings or pillows around to prevent any risk of suffocation. You should also try to adopt a late/bath time routine. What worked for me is this: Say for example, I am aiming for bedtime of 10pm, I will bottle feed my son with formula at 9pm. Then he has a bath for around 9.30pm. I use the boots night time liquid baby wash. After bathing him (whilst still in the bath tub), I massage his entire body using a flannel with slightly above warm water. The massage takes about 5-10mins and my son loves it - I feel it relaxes his body. Massage done and he is dressed up in night clothes -usually a onesie (light full body suit). I make sure the lights in the room are dim and I just lay him down and breast feed him. Sometimes I play a lullaby on YouTube (works wonder ). With this method, he only wakes up max once during the night. I sometimes tweak this routine by bottle feeding him with formula after bath time and then breast feed him till he sleeps. 1 Like |

Looooooooool. Welldone, day 1 is always the hardest. Gradually you'll adjust. I don't even call again at all, just whatsapp if I want to tell them something important. And unlike you people, creche is near home not office so I cannot pop in at all spiceeamiee: |

Please can I mix Gerber rice, pap and formular for my baby? I have only tried to feed her cereal twice: yesterday and today but she cries so much while being fed, spits out the food and then goes into a frightening coughing fit. I have tried using spoon and plate and a feeding bottle, no way. In fact since this afternoon,She has started crying at the sight of her feeding bottles. She thinks they are all cereals, even when I tried to give her water, She rejected it. I don't know if it's this particular cereal she does not like so I will get another flavour tomorrow but I would also love to vary her food since all she can take now is pap, cereals, formular formulae and breast milk |

spiceeamiee: I typed a long post on a similar issue. Please read below. Hopefully, you find it helpful. helovesme post=: in addition to the points raised above, buy one pack of cereal at the time until you find a brand/flavour that she likes. For now, go for a cereal that has got bananas incorporated in it. they are usually well liked by babies. Aptamil has a creamed banana porridge cereal for babies. It already contains milk but you can add small scoop of formula if you wish Cow& Gate also has a creamed banana porridge cereal for babies. try either and hopefully your baby should like it 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Ha! Mama! This singing and dancing sontin, we go get the time so? . This may actually work with my baby as she likes being tickled and talked to but where the time na? Maybe only weekends. You wrote about 6month old babies. My baby is only 4months and just took cereal for the first time yesterday but she is not taking it well so I'm thinking of mixing this one (rice cereal) with her pap plus formular while I buy Heinz which she can then drink alone (with formular). Hope say we no go purge sha helovesme: |

katchycouture: my son went through a phase when he would refuse to wear his diapers or pull his trousers/diapers down. the issue was that before I say jack robinson, he has pee'd on the floor or in the kitchen (which he found rather amusing and fascinating) or worse still pooed in his trousers. so I insist he wears the diapers and he keeps his pants on. he has been wearing pampers pull up pants since he was around 8 months so he pulls down/pulls up his diapers himself with ease. sometimes he wakes up with dry diapers in the morning. the 'signs' are all there that he is ready to potty train but I won't do it till he clocks 2yrs 6months because once I ditch the diapers, that's it and I want to make sure the transition is accident/drama free. I am not in any rush at all. |

spiceeamiee: Apologies. I didn't realise your baby is 4 months old. I am not an advocate of introducing solids that early. I am also not an advocate of ogi. mixing rice cereal, formula and ogi together sounds like too much to feed a baby that young. personally, I will never do it. I believe that a baby should be on strictly milk (breast milk or formula or both) for the first 6 months of their life. Your baby is obviously not ready to be weaned. why not stop the solids and continue with just milk? There is no need to rush/force her. at 6 months, they have better head control, greater sense of smell/taste/colour and their organs are more developed to process/digest solids. the chances of them becoming fussy eaters are also slimmer. my son was on strictly milk (breastmilk+formula) for his first 6 months and he didn't have his first spoon of cereal till he clocked 6months 1day. Looking back, I have no regrets. 4 Likes |

Hi Mamas, pls welcome me. I have been a senior guest on nairaland since like 5-6 years ago. I officially registered to nairaland yesterday cos of this page. I have been an ardent follower of this page right from the pregnancy thread. I initially registered myself (for my mind o) for March born cos I share the same LMP as nicoleswizz. I have been following her, giddyperson and sansa143 back to back. i was kind of scared when they all gave birth and doctor kept on telling me 'baby's head is not down yet'. story for another day. I want to thank all mothers on this thread for taking out time to provide solutions when its needed. Baby Israel is 6months and 11days 14 Likes |

completey: Thank you. I later went to the hospital today. It's a tissue Doctor said to watch it if it will grow longer or resolve itself before Tue. It's either he ties it so it can fall off or they will just trim it off or silver nitrate will be used to burn it off. He said no cause for alarm. 2 Likes |
