STERIMAR BABY NASAL HYGIENE

Baby was having fever, cough and flu for the past 2 days. Was giving her baby paracetamol syrup for the fever. She was very disturbed by nasal congestion. Ophelia has very bad nasal congestion which caused her to lose her appetite. She refuses milk whenever i tried to feed her. Out of 6 ounces of milk, she managed to finish half of it, the rest went into the sink. Dehydration was the major concern at that point of time. Was busy google-ing on how to make an infant blow her nose!!! And it still remains a misery now!!! Brought her again to see a paediatrician, as i do not know what else i could do for her. After a general physical examination by doctor, I was told that her lungs was clear, cough may be caused by irritation. Thank God! Medications free, except paracetamol syrup when necessary. He prescribed Ophelia a nasal hygiene spray to ease her nasal congestion issue.

Well, this is the baby nasal hygiene prescribed by the doctor. (My first encounter on this product) Consist of 31.82ml sea water and 100ml of purified water (ratio) in this pressurized container.

Sterimar is a UK based company that produces variety range of nasal hygiene (from drops to spray) for infants and adults.

* A mummy will always "asked' MR GOOGLE for everything to double check before giving anything to their child :)

Additional information provided as well and usage recommendation.

The tip of the nozzle is covered with a plastic for hygienic purposes

Pay attention at the nozzle. The tip of the nozzle was designed 'blunt' and it will not hurt your child if he/she struggles during application.

This is how we positioned before putting it into our baby's nostrils.

The pump is really cleverly designed so that it can work whatever angle you hold the can at. The sea water come out as a very fine spray. Ive tried it on myself ;(out of curiosity) and I find it quite gentle and it does cleanses my nose miraclely! They also recommended it for daily cleansing. I found this product quite useful as well.

This product is no doubt has done a great job and i will continue to use it to cleanse my baby's nostrils daily besides relieving nasal congestions.

I would rate this product a 4/5. (nothing's perfect right? )

PS: The above review is based on my tried and tested experience. Please consult a doctor before usage.

Morinaga Formula Milk Review

Breastmilk is indeed benefits the most to your baby. What if you have inssuficient breast milk like me? I'm alternating breast milk and formula milk currently. Choosing formula milk will cause you much headache as well because every mother would want to give the best formula to their child. I was giving this very expensive formula to my little ones in the beginning but she ended up with constipation. Brought her to a pediatrician for the issue and he advised me to get her Morinaga formula milk. I wasn't that convinced giving her this in the beginning as i have never heard of its brand before. But i still have to give it a try.... Tried to search up for more information pertaining to it and yeah! managed to find some. Morinaga is a japanese company that produces infant formula and other stuffs like beverages, ice creams , desserts, health foods etc. etc. You may look up to their website if you wanted to find out more about them. https://www.morinagamilk.co.jp/english/prod

Infant Oral Hygeine

Caring for baby's oral cavity plays a very important part too. It helps to set a stage for a healthy mouth and to prevent oral thrush (a very common infection among infants) Ive practice very strict oral care for my baby since birth. Very easy steps to follow to maintain a healthy oral cavity: Equipments: Cotton, luke warm water Method: 1)Just lie your baby on your lap or put her flat on the bed, 2)roll cotton onto your index finger, 3)dipped cotton into luke warm water, 4)start cleaning your baby's oral cavity in a circular motion and repeat the same steps with another cotton wool each time. I usually use filtered/ boiled water to clean my baby's oral cavity. There are plenty types of oral cleaning solution in market used for oral hygiene, but to me, i think water is already sufficient. Things have changed, gotten more and more advanced, whereby i have encountered some very new oral hygiene sets for baby while strolling in the baby shop. This is the very cute

Basilic Milk Powder Dispenser

Being an outdoor mother, baby bag contents are very important. Choosing a suitable milk powder dispenser is equally essential. Lots of factor that i will need to consider before purchasing one. Here I am going to review on the baby milk powder dispenser that i am currently using. This is Basilic milk powder dispenser, BPA free. Contains 4 containers that can be separated according to your needs. Instructions behind. how to take care of the milk dispenser as usual. The dispenser comes in a few colors if I'm not wrong, mine is a girl, that's why i chose pink. :) Containers can be seperated according to your needs. Here's my Review: Durability wise, absolutely not an issue. I have bought one for my boy 4 years ago and he is still using it. That is why I'm getting the same thing for my girl. Ive tried some other brands, one big container with 4 separated compartments , It lasts me for 2-3 months only .... plastic cover broken all of a sudden. Basil
