Boil some water and pour into a bucket or big bowl. You may add silverbird or put mentholatum in the bucket before pouring the water. Sit with your baby beside the bucket and make sure the steam from the boiled water is reaching you both well. Get someone to cover you both with a thick cloth or blanket so the steam doesn't escape. Stay and inhale the steam till drops of sweat starts forming on your faces.

hello mama, do exactly what anugod said.
Another option I do is close the bathroom window, turn on the hot water faucet and shower this fills up the bathroom with steam, I sit on a chair in there with baby for about 20 mins . It opens her airways.
Better still I have this appliance called a steamer(will snap it when I get home) uses little water and salt. Fills up the whole room with steam. I use it especially at night while sleeping.
I also sprinkle drops of olbas on her bed. My baby had a terrible case of bronchiolitis last month we did all the antibiotics, inhaler etc but that steaming helped us greatly. Thank God for seeing us through.

I read ur diary and I laughed ehn cheesy cheesy cheesy PA toh bad grin grin.

I want to make a suggestion to you. Instead of chewing the meat before giving her,why not boil and blend? That's what I do for my princess now.

You boil ur chicken/beef( or both). Stock it like you normally stock ur meat but with reduced salt. Allow it cook well then debone and blend. If you are using chicken then remove the skin before blending. Pack it in an airtight container and put in the freezer.

You can put it in all her meals even already cooked ones and she doesn't have to chew it again.

I hope this helps. Kisses to ur princess kiss

She also wants to chew on it o.
I have minced meat that I pit in her meals. But she likes to chew meat so I just bite it a bit so it's chewable for her. Hubby has complained tire. But I will try to boil very well and see if she will be able to chew it. Thanks much

grin cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy lol even my smallie that has just seven tooth still wants to chew. Most times I give her the bone with flesh to scratch her gum cheesy cheesy

Yh cook hers softer so it will be easier for her to chew.
You can boil together and remove the ones u need to cook with then leave about two to three pieces to cook more. That will be hers

Dear Mamas,

FTM.

Please my son was circumcised on Friday and a ring placed on his penis. I was told the penis will swell but to press it with spirit and cottonwool. The thing is when I remove his pampers, I see some sort of sticky residue where his penis was.

The penis is still swollen and when I try pressing it, he screams so much, I feel xxxxxx.

I don't know what to do. The matron said if by Friday this week the ring has not fallen off, to bring the baby back to the hospital for them to remove it themselves.

I'm wondering if I should not press it anymore and just wait till Friday so I can take him back for them to remove it themselves.

My grandma said the should have done it another way where you will simply use olive oil after the circumcision has been done.

What are you currently using on her skin? It may be a reaction to something. Stop powder (I assume that's what the white thing is) for now. Sudocrem is strong in my personal opinion, baby tribotan is better

It was based on the instruction by the matron. The issue is the pain he has to endure whenever I try to press the penis.

I have decided to halt the pressing and just wait till Friday so they can remove it themselves.

Plus the swelling is something else.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by glosun: 1:28pm On Jul 09, 2018
I don't think you should press it. When we did ours,a ring was also used and we were told by the consultant not to use anything on it.it fell that same week.

The only thing I use on her skin is chicco cream. I have not started using powder the white thing is sudocream. Also I apply savlon on her water before bathing.
