Not to bathing water please. You can put it in hot water for steam inhalation, just like you do when you have catarrh. That's put in hot water, carry baby, cover your head with a big towel and let him inhale the steam. Just 2-3 drops at a time please. It should never come in contact with the skin please, not even in bathing water, it's way too strong. @Pearl05





Alright senior mama, the bolded is well noted. Thank you.

Dear mothers,

My 10 weeks old breaths noisily as if catarrh is blocking his nose while sucking breast, especially if not served immediately he calls for it.( I haven't notice it while formula feeding) Is it common trend for babies their age? Has any mother experienced it and please what step did you take to correct it?


What is this SILVERBIRD that mothers mention here?

Where can I get it pharmacy, supermarket or open market?

Can any mother post the picture of silver bird for me to see what am looking for when I go to get it.

What are the uses please.
Make una no vex I be JJC

Abeg leave that baby alone. Don't give any drug is your baby's nose is not dulling with catah and breaths with his nose. Your baby is fine. It will stop in due time. My baby started the nosy breathing stuff at 12 days went to the clinic for 6weeks appointment, doc said i should leave it alone and oga google said same thing

How do yo do it? Juice it out or puree it? Do you warm it a bit before giving ?

Please what other fruit can 10 weeks old take.
After peeling, I cut into cube shape and use fork to press, drain the water into a cup and give baby. I don;t warm at all since I did not refrigerate before giving her.

@ d bolded, I don't know. why I give water melon is because is tender in the stomach, just like normal water.

MMR and chicken pox is taken twice. Waow, where is your health centre?

I meant you have to pay for MMR and yellow fever as primary immunization ends at 12 months, but MMR is taken at 15 months. It is measles that was given for free. We have not taken mmr as baby is not yet 15 months.
Health centre was in rivers state

My mum used to put rub or mentholathum in the water when I was a kid. Or you can do just the hot water. I've stopped using silverbird, its just too conc for my kids, even to inhale.

Mamas please I have an issue to discuss with you people. The day care my Daughter attends I saw spatula ( turning Stick) with the creche minder and I asked her what its for she said she uses it to turn babies that refused to crawl on time. I'm just worried Cos I din't expect to see that type of thing there she said its part of the job they do. I'm just worried ....I've also heard of situation where they use it to beat children under their feet... undecided

Please you don’t need a soothsayer to tell you that you need to remove your child from that school because one day one day yawa go gas

Pregnancy causing fever is a myth. Go to the hospital and check if there's anything wrong with him.

I use mentholathum, silverbird is very strong for my children. I just drop it on the bathroom floor during bath time or in the room before we sleep

Ha!, In that case I think it's not safe for children under 3 yrs . I mix mentholathum with blue seal Vaseline to rob on his feet and ribs region after bath on very cold days.

Sing for her and rock her to sleep when she's crying.
