WHY WON’T MY BABY SUCK?

Believe me…I know that feeling... when your baby rejects your breast milk. It can be a very disturbing moment for mothers and some take it very personal. In most cases, breast refusals are temporary and could vary with the health or stage in development of the child at that time. It is important to know why your baby won’t suck and know what to do to encourage your baby to suckle.

Before getting worried over your baby’s refusal to suck, quickly check the number of feeds your baby have had or is completely refusing in a day. Check nappies if wet as this can cause discomfort for the child  and also check the number of wet nappies in 24 hours because urine and stool tells a lot about what is going on inside your baby’s body.

MONSTER IN-LAW... CAN I HAVE MY PEACE?

It was an intense prayer session that evening in our room… my roommates and I back then in the school hostel. We organized a ‘thunder and fire’ prayer session against our future mother in-laws and any wicked treatments attack from them. Ngozi rounded off the prayers by inviting the Holy ghost to slay our future mother in-laws like in the days of Egypt when the angel of death visited. Yes! We wanted them dead before we got married. One will say we were been childish and stupid but we were guarding ourselves, in the way we knew best as at then, against any and every future attacks from our prospective mother in-law.
