booqee:Trust me your baby does not need any drug for colic, as it will go on its own with time. I use to put my baby on his back and do the bicycle motion with his legs and it does help. Try and avoid using drugs for your baby. My son is 7 months and the only drug he has use is tylenol ( like paracetamol) and that was once when they circumcized him. Except baby is sick pls avoid drugs ma. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Naomi14:smallie is a bad idea o, they have to go to school and still do their own studying too, she usually won't be of much help with baby until the holidays unless u mean post secondary school smallie. I have a smallie but I still couldn't register for my own exam until a time when she'd be on long holidays. |

Hospital is right. It's hard but you'll get through it. Burp her very well when she eats. Bicycle her legs (youtube) when you see she's squirming. I endured it for 4 whole months, I heard baby girls outgrow it faster booqee: |

kelizosuy: if you don't think it's out of place, I'll suggest you put her in a creche near your house for few hrs say like 9am-2pm(I presume you work from home). Use that time to concentrate on your work. Babies will always need attention. my mum helps me with my ds and everyday when I get back from work, she's full of stories on how he didn't allow her do any serious work. When I'm off work and I stay with him too, I get what she's saying. Sometimes I'm like can't you just sit and play in one place, my mum will reply Olorun oni je ka ri iru e (God won't allow such). God guide you aright. 1 Like |

booqee: The name of the drug for treating colic/being gassy is PATIENCE & ENDURANCE. All those other drugs(nospamin, infacol, gripewater etc.) just have a placebo effect. The uneasiness come often and I doubt if you would want keep dosing your baby with drugs every now and then. The cries are heart wrenching I agree and can make you do almost anything but just wait it out. The baby's body system is still developing hence the discomfort. I tried gripe water during our own episodes and it didn't do anything except to make him drowsy. I eventually threw the remaining away. https://www.essentialparent.com/lesson/baby-massage-for-colic-2175/ Cheers 4 Likes 1 Share |

Chirolechick:What is her birth weight to begin with? A newborn is expected to drop a bit of birth weight in the first month of life and then add 1kg monthly till about six months to a year old. 4kg at just two months old in my opinion is a good weight irrespective of her birth weight. Be resy assured that as long as she eats well the weight will come on, also genetics should be considered too as your baby won't be any different from which ever parent or side of the family she genetically stands with. 1 Like |

booqee:Give tummy time by placing her on her tummy a couple of times during the day. Circle her legs in a bicycle motion whilst on get back, gentle rub her tummy, burp her after each feed, carry her on your shoulder with her tummy pressed on your shoulder. Then endure till she's 3-4 months old when she'll outgrow it. Good luck. |

kelizosuy: The feeling is natural for a mother. You sef said they are good so just choose the best out of the good ones. since its close to you, you can easily monitor them by checking on her. Mamas have often mentioned what to look out for so use that as a guide. pray and trust God to guide you through. |

Cohis:lOL raw pap ke, yeah I mean Pap made without adding formula. And pureed food like blended Irish potatoes, cooked with crayfish and deboned fish or chicken, blended bananas or boiled and blended apple, there are a lot of recipes on this thread, I can dig them out for you if you want but you can start with one of two for now until she gets older. |
