@Op; why are you making so much noise mate? undecided This matter never reach make you bring am come Nairaland nah. Aside the other foods' your wife gives your son; he also needs milk to help in developing his immune system, bones as well as his brain development.

In regards to utilising the SMA Milk; try and have a daddy feed time once a day with your son. That once a day is when you will prepare the SMA milk yourself and feed him with it and voila; problem solved. No be everything na em you go make gra gra all the time. Be playful with your wife and let her know that you will like to feed your son once a day as well when you are back from work and that including milk in his diet will give him calcium and make him have strong bones grin. How difficult is that? undecided You think if you tell her that, she will not like it or she will say no? undecided

In regards to the worn-out cloths; all you need to do is go through your child’s wardrobe and get rid of all the worn-out cloths yourself and replace them with the new ones that are already available. If you don’t get rid of them, your wife will continue to wear them on your little one. Tell your wife playfully that you will like your son to be trendy with his new cloths cool; it’s not that difficult.

In regards to her being a rude wife and not listening to even her mum; you already knew that when you were dating her and you turned a blind eye to her rudeness so you have yourself to blame for ending up marrying her knowing fully well that she is a rude individual.

You are missing the point. Op's complaint is that people have advised her on changing the child's diet but madam is stubborn.

Then he should try and feed his child. He can prep his food, not milk but food. Maybe his wife have no idea of other food to feed. I'll look for the babies food thread link and give him. https/www.nairaland.com/4758545/baby-foods-recipes-weaning-solids?
Seriously, everything is not war

At that month I was still mashing food for my DD, she's the pickiest eater I had. 3 days I left her with her father, she ate custard, cereal and tea throughout. Since then, anytime I want to leave the house, I always mash or give him her food timetable but I'll come back to her telling me that she ate indomie, goldenmorn and mendemende.

The kinda advice I read on nl tires me out.

Quietly talk to your wife.
Why was your child not breast fed or was it complemented with milk?
Is milk the new food you want to introduce to a toddler? My son never liked plain milk when he was that age, he'll spit everything out.
Is your child a pickyeater?
What other cereal have you bought?
Beverage?
What happened to other homemade food e.g mashed potatoes, beans with plantain etc. Finger foods like fried potatoes, pancakes, bread, plantains, soft baby carrots etc
Natural fruit juice nko or fruits like Apple, banana etc
The milk can be added in pap or cereal.
Warm water first thing in the morning can help with the constipation.
Or is it only amala that you eat in your house?

Everything is not war, war war.
An 18m old has passed plain milk stage.Better taken with cereal, oatmeal.@op you and your wife should sit down and draft a food time table for your baby.That way the meals can be balanced.

lolz @ buying carton of SMA milk for an 18m..That child is supposed to be tearing chicken by now as well as other nice meals the family eats.My baby is hitting 8m next week and i am even praying for her to be 1yr fast so she can eat family food.Pls sis, on another issue.My daughter prefers to eat with feeder now.I started solids with pureed apple anf potato at 4m.She was eating it well when i spoon-feed her.

At 7m+ she doesn't open her mouth when she sees spoon.Doctor and my mum said its because she is teething, that most babies hates to chew cos of the discomfort to her incoming teeth.Even if i use my fingers,she barely opens her mouth to eat.My mum suggested i enlarge d hole on her feeder to use.I tried it,she guzzled everything.
I still try to spoonfeed her daily.She eats a maybe two spoons and starts turning her head away, avoiding the spoon.

Once i transfer it to a feeder and thin it out with water,she eats it sharp sharp.Abeg help me look the matter,cos i read online that feeding baby solids with a feeder wont make them know food is meant to be taken with spoon,and they won't eat well with spoon.

Had to shorten the quote.

Lol @tearing chicken. Every child is different.

Continue with the spoon, you can also buy that feeder that comes with a spoon instead of teat. I believe zaynie have it or you can check the market for it.

Congratulations on your child, was wondering why your hair thread wasn't updated. Never knew someone kept you busy.

Abeg we've derailed this thread finally. Op will soon come for us.

Today, I told my wife to start feeding our 18 month old son sma baby milk once a day so he could take in all the necessary nutrients from the milk since he was never breast fed.

Note: he eats cerelac in the morning, yoghurt at 12 noon, Eba/Amala at 4pm and cerelac again in the night. I mentioned to her to find a way to feed him sma milk at least once a day but instead she started arguing with me.

What do i do?


Why did your wife deprive your son, the most important start up meal (breastfeeding).......?....

She does not want her breast to sag or reserving it for your pleasures?.......

Let your wife take care of the baby and stop stressing your self

Just buy the milk and keep it where she can see it

Oga grow up and be a man.

That she's your wife doesn't mean she's a robot, beside the way you tell her
to do something will determine the response or reaction you get from her. If you will get the best from a woman stop acting like a lord around her, treat her as a partner and you will see her serving you.

So because of this matter now you come to nairaland?

Return her back to her parents house, she's not wife material. How dare she tell you how to feed a baby she carried for nine months and nurtured till 18 months?

Send her packing jor, go and marry another woman that will take care of the baby she didn't carry so she can feed the baby according to your specification. If the new wife doesn't comply, send her packing and marry yet another woman.

Keep marrying new ones till they are ready to do a better job than the actual mother of the child.

Come back and tell us how it goes.
Your brain is paining you. The mother is a doctor for her to know what is best for her child, even against that of a certified doctor? keep constituting nuisance up and down.

My previous comments were sarcastic, I hope you saw through it. Mothers go through a lot nursing their children and no mother will deliberately put her child in harm's way. Tbh, most kids would have stopped breastfeeding at that age and would be on pap or solids.

I'd suggest you talk to an elderly woman she respects or take her to seek counselling.

There are more issues to worry about in marriage than issues like this. If you're getting tired over this small issue, wetin u go come do if one wey big pass this one come?

You don't sound like you still love your wife. Is there a problem like that?

The next one you'll marry won't cough the way you want her to. Quit that marriage and marry another one. By the time you're on your tenth marriage, you'll realize that marriage is about compromise and respecting partner's opinions. If you don't love your wife, just come out and state it instead of using something as flimsy as baby milk to send her packing

PS your son has outgrown SMA baby milk. There are other age appropriate milks with the right amount of nutrients he can consume.
