Please what is flannel? Isn't it the same as shawl? I saw both on my hospital list..and I'm confused.

I checked Google the only pictures I saw were already folded.

The pink and white with baby girl inscription is shawl (but online is receiving blanket)

while the brown is hooded towel(I see people use it as shawl/receiving blanket)

while d one beside it is flannel(most times it comes in pack like 4 or 3 in a pack) (white with pink dots).

My VVIP mama, I read all sabi mamas contributions to your question
My opinion is that you should talk extensively with your doctor
Nd maybe you seek second opinion but ensure you tell the doctor your medical history.
happy bumping and continue enjoying Village

Thank you cappo and as for my Dr na me and him if I reach Lagos.

Flannel is lighter than shawl and can be used as a blanket. Its also better than shawl cos shawl makes them hot.




I'd say buy just one shawl for outings and naming ceremony and buy a sset of flannel for everyday use.

ohhh..well explained now.

Thanks a lot.

100k will buy basic things if u aren't buying car seat, wardrobe then settle for a normal rocker not pram.
they are the ones that consume the bulk of the money. With 100k u will get the basic flask, bathset,bathing kit, sleepsuit and body suit, hanger baby bed, not cot oo cos cot with bed is abt 30something. Every other thing sha.
Flannel is diff from shawl. you will see it at the store. There's the big one for backing baby and a medium one that can be used as bedsheets or cover cloth for baby.

so shawl makes baby hot? never knew though I bought two, and a set of flannel. Maybe I'll use the flannel more then. I also bought blanket. What purpose does each serve? since you said shawl can be used as blanket, why are the giving diff names when they serve same purpose. Nawa oo

HolySteph:
Chai abeg mommas in the house help me o! The stretch marks just started coming out even with the ori that I'm applying. I can't help the itches. I scratch it like my life depends on it. Sometimes I feel like using iron sponge to scratch its that bad. I hope the stretch marks goes off after delivery? And could be the possible problem for the itches?

sorry about the itching. stretch mark has bastardized the whole of my hips and bum too, thank God there's no itching sha. I count it all joy jare. Anything for my baby. May our sacrifice not be in vain.

Shawl
Blanket
Flannel
They serve the same purpose which is to swaddle or wrap baby in.


Shawl is more cozy but makes them hot considering we're in the tropics where its hot almost all through the year. They're most useful in the first few weeks of life because they're thicker and cushion the baby when carried or passed from hand to hand. They're also nice for naming ceremonies and outings. By the 6th-8th week, you won't even remember you have them.
Flannels are lighter. We don't pack our flannels till were like 18m and we always leave one behind as our cover clothe
Blankets are just thicker and most suitable for cold days.

Exactly! I dont even bother to check mentions. I only check my followed topics. Lol.
Nne thanks for the encouragement ee. God bless you.

Awww soonest my teamie, cmon cheer up ok? Even if a woman has no personal preference for a boy or girl, external pressure to produce one or the other can cause feelings of disappointment, and depression. Think about it like this, a lot of women would give anything to be in ur shoes, so u r indeed blessed. U r also gonna av daughter in laws and granddaughters who will love the hell out of u. So, my darling, pls cheer up ok. In everything, let God's will be done in our lives. Sending you e-hugs.

The shawl I got I only used maybe 5 times (or less), Nigeria is very hot and shawl is something that you will not use often. All these many names is to collect your money jare
