Hey guys. I got a nice lady to talk about ideas on planning those birthday parties. She really stressed that you should not overspend (she's actually worked with an event planner but I told her to write it as a mum). So here goes:

Nothing to worry about for now, it takes up to 25 months especially in preterm babies to close up.

However if by 18months it's still open talk to your doctor about it, even then it's still nothing to worry about.

Be sure he drinks lots of water cos dehydration cause it to sunken.

For some babies, it does not close till when they are 2yrs+ sef. Please check with a doctor if you're worried to put your mind at rest.

Mummies please help my pain

My 12 days old baby was circumcised today and the hospital used the traditional method of cutting. I've been crying for my baby since.

I was going to take him elsewhere, don't know y I let them go ahead. I am still in shock of it n trying to change focus to how to maintain it till it heals.

He was given pain reliever and we were told to apply penicillin regularly. I can't remember if they told me how how often to apply it. Pls how often?

Was this method used for any baby here, can someone guide me on what to expect? And what to do? I can't find info on it and I'm beginning to get worried already.

Pls help me

kazchick:
Don't mind my moniker grin grin
I would buy the Vit C and give him. I am just tired of the cough and he constantly getting flu. The thing is affecting his weight as he does not eat as much as he can since the catarrh blocks his nose. I try to suck it and I wld now catch the cold angry

For the weight, I want to start giving him pap as I read that it makes babies add weight. I also want to make Tom Brown. At what age should I start to feed him that too?

Just want my baby to be healthy and chubby. 6.4kg at 5 months is small na.

From 6months is OK for tombrown,if the child is not allergic to any of the components.
Try adding cod liver oil,it also helps with the cold and weight,if you don't mind the taste.
I prefer any brand made in England.
That moniker does it reflect a town of chicks.

nothing to worry about,also did the traditional one for my son though it was not intentional,the pain would only be much on day one but would subsequently subside.just make sure you pour enough olive oil on the cotton wool on the peepee so that it can fall off easily or to make it easy when you want to remove it.penicilin application starts when the plaster or cotton wool has been removed or fallen off.it would be healed before you know it.

Pls help me

Chai. Even us that did plastibel type didn't find it funny, talk more of traditional method.

We were given both paracetamol and vit c drops. Para was for 3days and vit c we gave for about a week to help d wound heal.

We were asked not to put anything till it fell off, after which I religiously applied penicillin at every opportunity plus I wore a bigger sized diaper.

Pele dear.

@ Cappo Anugod, baby's hair is kiss kiss, which style do you make for her, my baby's hair is full too, but I'm scared of plaitng it cos of pain.

Also how do you make apple and banana puree for your baby. My baby has refused taking formula, I did 6 months exclusive feeding for her.

What other food can I give her? although she takes pap but very little.

Don't worry mama, he'll be fine
Think same was done on Ds too, and he did great
We just gave para on the 1st day and followed up with vit c until it was completely healed

We were told to apply oil for about 2days,remove the bandage,and then apply penicillin ointment at every diaper change.

I got tired of making puffs every day, so we decided to start experimenting. grin You can plait that two hand style (matting or wetin dem dey call am?). We plait all kinds of styles now, we just loosed shade, cheesy last week we made two steps, cheesy maybe we'd make chuku next. grin
I simply distract her with lots of play things and cartoons, and hopefully we have a drama free time. It's worth it for me cos the one we just loosed was made on Sunday. We loosed today, made puffs for tomorrow before washing for the weekend. She hardly even notices when she's busy playing, so I don't think it hurts her much. I hold it lightly tho.

As for the puree, you can cut up the apples into bits and boil then blend with little water. You can make carrot puree same way. No need to boil the banana, just mash, maybe add little water to lighten it. But don't do banana puree too often o, cos it could cause constipation.
We did exclusive too, but my baby eats any and everything, except okro. She looovves semo and egusi. cheesy But we do mostly baby foods for now cos seems her system is not very ready to process much adult food. We fight over cerelac most times but she takes formular pretty well.

Poor baby cry

This is what Nurse Kaffy thinks. I simply copied the post as I'm not sure I can relate it verbatim

[6/7, 8:21 PM] Nurse Kaffy: Olive oil or penicillin and gauze roll Can be gotten from the pharmacy to dress it till it dries
[6/7, 8:22 PM] Nurse Kaffy: Care should be take to prevent stimulating bleed at dressing change
So alternate days can be good if hygiene is maintained(no poo stain or urine)
[6/7, 8:22 PM] Nurse Kaffy: And before dressing change, it should be a bit wet to prevent pulling

the same method was used for my ds, what i did was to apply olive oil religiously to soak the bandage, removed the bandage the following day and started adding penicillin at every diaper change. Also avoid water touching it.
