How To Find Missing CNAME Record Of Blogger Blog Again For Custom Domain

I will like to share this challenging question that really disturbed me. I really turned all around the corner getting in to BLOGGER HELP FORUM for help. For several days I got links to follow both from my domain host as well as referred links from BLOGGER HELP FORUM that let me turn around and around with no concrete answer leading to a solution to my problem. 
FOR ALL WHO HAVE GOTTEN THEMSELVES STUCK AROUND THIS ISSUE, we got  questions like 



Questions like... 
    -  I lost my CNAME for blogger
    -  I deleted all my DNS Management Records [Blogger] Can It be restore? HELP
    -   I accidentally deleted the A record for my domain. What can I do to restore it?
    -  I accidentally deleted All my dns records for my domain. how can i restore the 
        default records for my domains?
    -  I added a domain to my blogger and i remove it from blogger and from godaddy.com
        i deleted CNAME from Records on domain manager on godaddy now i need to RECOVERY 
        CNAME how i can do
   -  Yesterday I unfortunately deleted for "host @" in DNS Zone file's Cname Record. So, I 
       can't find my domain in browser. Now, I add new record for it. But, still not accessing my
       domain. How can I get back my domain? Subdomains of this domain are still working.
You can not imagine what those in such a situation are going through, See the Cnames that come up the first time before disappearing,

When we by mistakenly delete the CNAMES, bloggers gives no room to see them again, both the first CNAME common for all blog domains, www directed to ghs.google.com and second CNAME that is particular to each domain. 

The third party redirect will not direct you to the error window that displays the concerned CNAMEs. What we notice this time around after fitting in our domain redirect link and clicking on save,  is that blogger saves the link meaning the redirect is functional. We know that our  CNAME(Alias) on our DNS editor board has no details and we are sure the redirect will not work even though process on blogger was saved successfully. 

WHAT SHALL WE DO TO GET THE DELETED CNAMES ON BLOGGER
Note that all attempts to get help from the domain providers will fail since they have no access on your blogger dashboard. 

After much struggle, we fell on this

You will need to know that to install a custom domain name for you blogger blog, the CNAME record is essential for that job. To redirect your blog to the custom domain requires the corresponding CNAME entries in the domain registrar system account. Go and Put the entries inside and your domain registrar. This will take like 24hrs  to redirect your blog completely to the new custom domain.
