realpearl: Was a lab test carried out before the prescription? If no, its better you see another doctor and insist on a test. 17ml is threemuch in my opinion. I want to believe it is a typographical error and a costly one at that. It is usually 5ml for that age. I yamu not a doctor so please see another doctor. In the meantime, administer paracetamol syrup to bring the temperature down. 1 Like |

julieeni: Daycare will help. Just make sure you do proper checks before registering him in one. At least while he is there, you can breathe with ease, pamper yourself and rest your body. It's a phase though and some babies remain clingy for a long time despite enrolling them in creche. Once they sight you again during pick up, they resume being clingy. Go easy on yourself... |

17ke? Mba nu, see a real doctor, they will run tests and give medication that is appropriate. Generally for infant malaria sef they give dispersible tablets for you to dissolve in 5ml of water. 1 tablet in the morning, 1 ant night for 3 days realpearl: |

Are you sure you didn't put your hand too far back while trying to clean his tongue? Scanty malaria with no fever isn't likely to cause vomiting, but let other sabi mamas comman chook mouth Tessie89: 1 Like |

Good morning mamas. Please come to my aid. See pix of rashes on baby's face. She's 5weeks plus. Her head also have the dry scaly thing like dandruff. Been using cocnut oil n combing that. But I'm very concerned abt the face especially the whiter part that keeps spreading. Started baby tribotan on doc prescription but it's not changing the whiter part. Pls sabi mamas advise pls. |

rabluk: This looks like heat. Please make sure ur baby's room is well ventilated. I will advise you continue with baby tribotan, you should see improvement in 3 days. Your baby is too small to try other things. When your baby gets to 6months, I'd recommend authentic herbal cream for heat rashes or nappy rash. It is N100 and effective. There are 2 types, but the more effective type is the one with a lady's face and not the one with a boys face. It is made of aloe vera and some other soothing oil. Rising powder is also good. |

rabluk: Is this just on her face or all over? I feel she is reacting to something. What do you use on her skin and in bathing her? Tribotan usually does the trick for us tho |

realpearl: I know I've used attenuate but I've forgotten the dosage. I also think that for effective treatment, the drug is taken with another malaria drug. In this case you were given emaquine. There's this thing about malaria being resistant to some medications hence they had to start combining them for effective treatment hence we have artemether/lumefantrine, pyra/sulfadoxine and others. Most of these drugs are administered according to body weight including paracetamol in other for it to be effective. So the dosage for 7kg and 10kg may be different. Next time you are given a drug for your child, read through the leaflet, look at the dosage and adverse reactions. Use your calculator to compute the dosage. Have your Dr' s no for clarification. Go to a big pharmacy and ask questions. NB. Paracetamol is given 15mg per kg. Some brand has 125mg per 5ml or 120mg per 5ml. Let's assume your child weighs 5 kg. 5 x 15mg = 75mg If 120mg = 5ml, 75mg = 75mg/ 120mg x 5ml = 3ml. I hope you understand my illustration. Thank you 1 Like |

rabluk: Pele mama, I had the same issue last week and mamas here advised tribotan which I started using since Sunday, as at today it has peeled off and I keep seeing improvement. I know how worrying it can be but have patience and keep using the tribotan, also practice good hygiene, take it easy on the fan too, it will clear off. |
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by mamatwiny(f): 1:01pm On Mar 22, 2019 |
rabluk: Ur baby is too small for the herbal cream. Continue with baby tribotan and you will see improvement in 3 days |

rabluk: If you are using ori(shea butter) for her face. Stop it for now because we have been experiencing too much heat recently. Its not compulsory to rub their face with oil/cream. When you stop the ori, observe again, if the rashes persist even with administering tribotan then her bathing soap may be the culprit. Cheers |

Tessie89: When my baby had vomiting, we went to hospital and they took his blood for full blood count and malaria tests. They also did physical examination and his tonsils were seen to be enlarged. The lab result was positive for both tests and he was given malaria and antibiotics. When in doubt please tell them to take his blood samples for lab test. |
Re: NEW BORN BABIES! Are U A New Mum? Then Lets Discuss Babies Here!!!!! by rvpbae: 4:11pm On Mar 22, 2019 |
rabluk: Stop the ori and watch her for now. Ori might be too heavy in this heat. |
