Good day all.

Thanks

Greetings to everyone.. You mamas are doing a great job here...

For the mama asking about BCG, my baby took a 2nd dose and the scar is showing now.

In other news, how do babies differentiate meat and the likes from normal food? My baby will not eat her food again once she sights meat even when I try tricking her she'll spit it out. It baffles me o.

Again, she doesn't like food..., like after 5 spoons she loses interest. I can't point any food and say she loovess it. She's healthy but not adding weight in my eyes (only her feet seems to.. Lol). The matter tire me

Thanks, that's how I feed him, I keep giving till he starts protesting but I searched online before and saw some mothers on other sites saying their baby eats 240ml daily so I said let me ask here.
Thanks

I tried the garlic method, but I mixed it with salt. The useless thing was still in the room that night I put garlic.
I just hate them so much, they irritate me.
I guess next time I will just add only water.
Thanks.

Good day all

My 2 weeks old baby is having little little bleeding from the stomach button (navel) , we have tried cotton wool and methylated spirit severally but no it did not stop, and am not really happy about this, mothers/parents in the house should tell me what to do, GOD bless you all
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by StrongWoman333(f): 5:21pm On Aug 11, 2018
OK nobody told me that when ones baby is crying, it will be difficult to concentrate on what one is doing. Whenever MIL is bathing my baby and she starts to cry, I have to grab her even before she finish dressing her up. I will stylishly tell her to give me mY baby that I will finish dressing her myself after breastfeeding. So a scenario happened this morning I was in the kitchen cooking I told my dh to assist grandma bathe baby...in the process, baby started crying I came out from the kitchen not feeling comfortable with the cry. DH and MIL told me to go and finish my work that i should allow her cry and if baby didn't cry while in the hospital, it won't have ended in praise and the doctors wouldn't have given her to me. I dont know what came over me i think i went crazy for a moment...shouted back at them that I can't concentrate when baby starts to cry. embarassed embarassed embarassed They started laughing at me.

Also, I find out that even when tired and exhausted, I always find the strength from nowhere to carry or care for my baby whenever she is in need. Motherhood is divine, fun and interesting. My respect for women all over the world just tripled. Mothers deserve special gifts and award everyday especially mothers that have many children, twins, triplets etc...I wonder how they did it. shocked shocked shocked

Sorry for the rant and please ignore any typo error.

Mama's in the house good evening, I experienced this for two of my kids navel, please don't clean that area with methylated spirit again nor use hot water on it when bathing the baby, just allow blood to clot and seal the hole.You can still seek doctors advise.
Thanks..

I read somewhere that if you crush garlic and mix with salt and leave at the corners of your wall, they will disappear.
Personally I haven't gotten round to trying them as they always disappear when I have garlic at home only to reappear when I stock out.
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by Ilyfavoured: 7:58pm On Aug 11, 2018
You are blessed your baby will even take 150ml. My LO suddenly stopped taking cereal and will only take a little pap less than 50ml. Out of food options. She takes a bit of everything after a regular morsel of swallow she's done. The only thing she took well were jar foods which am now out of stock and don't intend buying more....e too cost. Thinking of starting her on multivitamins to up her intake

I don't think you are. Is he gaining weight? You can offer more and see if he will accept.

My dd does that too... Solution is to give meat after food else she won't eat.

If she's eating 5 spoons satisfactorily, make sure its 5 spoons of a very balanced diet.
My daughter is a slim kid who has lots of mood swings when it comes to food so i make sure d lil she eats is well cooked. When u carry her, u go feel d weight.

I n DH were very slim as kids so we wanna assume her stature is hereditary.

I also placed her on a daily multivitamin syrup (u may need t ask ur Dr to recommend) just so my mind is at rest.

Its in foreign forums where i saw oyibo moms claiming their babies eat 30ml six or seven times a day that made me start wondering o.
I dont want to underfeed cos someone said its important to feed them well at their baby stage when they are still developing physically and mentally.
