Akorkor: Like Zaynie already said..... Gradual withdrawal .... this worked like a charm for me. Started at 7 months substituting one breast feed with solids and formulae or some expressed milk. . And gradually cutting out night feeds and giving water... By 9 months we were down 3 proper meals a day and very little breast feeding. by 10 months I noticed my dd wasn't fussed with breast perse so I just pack my thing jeje. And went with solids and formular till 12 months and then introduced full cream normal milk. 4 Likes |

perfectcrown: My niece came with six fingers and we tied it to stop blood supply after some days it withered and fell. |

perfectcrown: Have it assessed by a doctor (may be some one in orthopedics), they will tell you if it is the type that can be simply tied to fall off. if for instance it has a bone structure and for all intents and purposes it is a "normal working" finger, it may be best left alone as tying may likely more harm than good. even if you consider surgery, it will need to be done by a very talented doctor at that. so that the nerves in the hand are not damaged. |

Saw this & thought to share. Immunization Schedule in Nigeria: The Full Course A child is considered vaccinated if he/she has received a vaccine against tuberculosis, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio-vaccine (at least 3 doses) and measles vaccine (1 dose). All of these vaccines should be received during the first year of the baby’s life, over five visits to the doctor, including those doses that were delivered at birth. Vaccinations needed at birth are BCG, HBV-1, and OPV-0. They are given to the babies right after they are is born in the hospital. If a woman gives birth at home, she should still go to the local hospital and vaccinate her child. BCG – this vaccine’s name stands for Bacillus Calmette Guerin. It is a compulsory immunization that prevents the baby from tuberculosis. This vaccine is received on the left arm. Usually, it will leave a small scar, which will be noticeable for the child's entire life. The baby received about 0,05 ml of the vaccine. Tuberculosis is a severe infectious illness which can lead to the fatal outcome without proper treatment. The usual symptoms of it are fever, sweating at night, weight loss, and coughing up blood. HBV-1 – this is a vaccine against Hepatitis B virus. This immunization measure is given to a baby on the thigh, in the dose of 0,5 ml. It is the first dose out of three. Two next doses of HBV-1 will be given to the child at the age of 6 and 14 weeks. Hepatitis B is a dangerous illness which can affect the liver and lead to serious damage or even cancer. The symptoms of hepatitis B are muscle pain, jaundice, vomiting, diarrhea, and tiredness. Sometimes the symptoms do not show up explicitly. OPV-0 – this vaccine helps against polio virus. It is given by mouth, in two or three drops. OPV-0 should be given in four doses, and while the first one is given to the baby right after birth, the next ones will be at the age of 6, 10 and 14 weeks. Polio is a special virus infection which affects the nervous system and might lead to paralysis. Usually, a person gets polio through consumption of water or food which contains the virus, or direct contact with body fluids of an infected person. The necessary vaccinations at the age of 6 weeks are DPT, HBV-2, and OPV-1. DPT stands for diphtheria, pertussis and tetanus vaccine. These three vaccines are combined together and given on the thigh in the dose of 0,5 ml. Diphtheria is a severe illness that can damage the heart and nervous system, and in some cases, it even leads to the fatal outcome. It usually shows up as a thick covering at the back of the throat, which is a primary symptom of the disease and can lead to chills, fever, and sore throat. Tetanus is a special kind of illness that is possible to catch through germs that get into the body through the open wounds and cuts. It can lead to painful spasms and breathing issues. Pertussis is an illness which leads to seizures, brain damage, and pneumonia. It causes coughing spells which last for about a week. At the age of 10 weeks, the child needs DPT-2, HBV-2, and OPV-2. They are all the next doses of the vaccines that were mentioned before. At 14 weeks, the baby is given the following vaccines: DPT-3, HBV-3, and OPV-3. The next vaccination has to take place when the baby is 9 months old. The little one has to get the following vaccines: Yellow fever vaccine – this one is given to the baby at the right arm in the dose of 0,5 ml. It protects the baby from the infectious disease called yellow fever, which usually is common in Africa, especially its tropical and subtropical areas. The symptoms of yellow fever are a headache, vomiting, appetite loss, and muscle pain. Sometimes you can bleed from the nose, mouth, and eyes. This illness is usually transmitted by mosquito bite. Measles vaccine – like the yellow fever, it is given on the right arm in 0,5 ml dose. This immunization measure will protect your child from measles. It is a very viral infection and one of the primary reasons why children in Nigeria die. Usually, the person who struggles from measles has a high temperature, sore eyes, running nose, little white spots in the mouth, and an allergic rash all over the body. Vitamin A – this is not exactly a vaccine, but this vitamin is given to a child as a supplement to boost his/her resistance to infections. To sum up, the primary vaccines that the baby in Nigeria needs from birth to the age of 9 months are: BCG OPV HBV DPT Yellow fever Measles If you have any questions about the other vaccines, you should clarify them with your medical care provider. Generally, these listed vaccines are the primary ones that are compulsory during immunization schedule for infants in Nigeria. Take care of your baby! 12 Likes 10 Shares |
