curvymama grin sorry sha but I don't know of any particular cure. I think you just manage it like every other condition. The beauty of MS is that surely it must end someday. Be it 3 months but kpatakpata after 9 months it must surely end. So just console yaself with that inugo(you hear)? Keep trying different things to alter the taste in your mouth, distract yourself by watching or going to the movies, sleep for Africa cheesy take strolls, change environment or travel. Sorry dear. Hugs.

Ok I'll keep trying to keep on keeping on
Thank you, sis

and I didn't react to it....but then I never react to any drug so maybe u can take precautions like other mamas advised. The midwife told me to take it after a heavy meal.

Teamaugust and other mamas, is it weird that I have not experienced braxton hicks contractions at 35weeks +3? I only read about it here. They say the tummy tightens, my tummy always feels tight so that description does not work for me.
Are there people who never have braxton hicks?

Machine wash. Lowest, not child care
Persil non bio and comfort fabric conditioner. Hand rinse so many times.


Dunno about affordable breast pump but I think I prefer manual pumps, I get creeped out with the thought of plugging my boobs with Nigerian electricity undecided

Milk? Dunno. Always did ebf and glucose for first days till the milk flows

For breastpump,the kinyo double electric pump is good and doesn't consume much power.
I used washing machine with setting baby care on my lg washing machine and had colour mix up with the clothes so I have put a stop for now to machine.

My sister it is really well. God bless our LOs, my face is swollen, eye balls heavy feeling dizzy as a result of sleepless night. We circumcised him this morning and he has not stopped crying, i so much pity him sha.

To d remaining pregnant mum PLEASE use this period to rest well ooo vigilante is real except u have siblings or inlaws to help out with chores.
May God make it easy for u.

Mamas please which is better coconut oil or engine oil for d circumcision site?


Please don't use any oil on that part. My son was circumcised on Saturday and he only cried that moment he urinated. We were given paracetamol and asked not to apply anything. The ring came off on Tuesday on its own.


uthor=queenhecate post=58675921]thank you all. am still reeling from the whole debacle.

please this vigilante is killing me, I had to go back to the hospital yesterday as I nearly had a seizure yesterday. constant headache, chest pain, swollen legs you name it and nobody to do omugwo for me join.

my bp was 180/92 and the doctor prescribed sleeping pills and scolded me that I should sleep when baby sleeps.

fastforward to yesternite and I was looking forward to sleeping as I was told baby will get it from breast milk and sleep too. na so sleep carry me oo but this little rat for wiaaaa.. She woke up her usual 53times when my breast aka her soother removes from her mouth.

am just a walking zombie this morning. my husband is so worried too. I am feeding her now to see if she can drop off so that I can sleep awhile.

I really don't want to go on hypertensive drugs as the doctor threatened.

sleeping after childbirth has always being my problem as if the adrenaline will refuse to come down.

women dey try oo.

Paracetamol is safe in pregnancy

Though when I was pregnant I avoided all other drugs except my prenatal vitamins

Sometimes, let her try sitting in a dark and quiet room, she should not watch TV or press her phone when she has the headache

You can also place a damp towel on her forehead

All these worked for me then

But I discovered that I had this burst of energy from 5pm every day!
So I will sleep or try to rest from morning till 4pm, I'll take a bath and then stroll to the market (it is 50 Naira bike ride from my house). These strolls helped me alot

BS!!!!
First of all, i wanto give thanks to Almighty God for this priviledge to be parents to this great gift.
On Thursday evening, i was having this reoccuring lower back ache so dh and i tot to time it to see if it could be contractions. Lo and behold it was coming more frequently but i insisted we stayed at home and go to the hospital on friday morning. Dh was not having all that as they got more serious so at some mins to 12am we left the house to the hospital.
The doctor on duty(not so nice man) did that VE on me (not painful tho, once the hand gets to where its going) and said i was 5cm gone, i was happy and knew we would meet our bundle of joy early that morning.
We were admitted and the contractions got more intense but i was still laughing tru it. DH was with me so i had someone to put all the pressure from contractions on.
At 7.40 am with strong and mad contractions, the Doctor checked me again and said i was 8cm gone, i was a bit relieved that soon just soon baby boy will arrive.
Fast forward to 11.30 am the MD gangan came to check on me, did the VE and said i was just 8cm gone that the other Doctor was just being generous but he will say the exact thing as it is. At this point i was terribly disappointed and frustrated. Like how can i be 8cm since 12am? With this mad contractions that seemed like i was gonna give up. I said all sorts of nasty stuff to Dh cuz my body was no longer mine, but i kept declaring positive words to my baby and begged him to yield to them.
After the MD(ohh such a godly man) did the VE, he broke my water and said they should administer Oxytocin to hasten the whol process, hmmm that was when i knew real labour.
My sisters that thing is out of this world, i had wicked and strong contractions that were so consistent, my body was no longer mine, i thought i was gone, DH was trying to console me but i told him not to touch me, i wont wish that thing on my enemy cuz it is hell.
When they hit me, i would scream the nurses would say i was pushing but i kept saying "i'm not pushing this baby is pushing me". Ohh the nurses too were angels, such young ladies with a good heart, they were with me all the way, encouraging me and praying with me. They kept saying u're doing great, just try some more. God bless them.
At some minutes past 1pm, MD came in and said i should push intensely when i had the contractions and ohh i was happy that we were almost there. I pushed with all my strength and might, and after about the 4th push and a big cut, at 1.40pm, my hunny bunny popped out with such loud cry, he was placed on my tummy and he was soo warm. I just started thanking God, praying for the Doctor, Nurses everyone around. I bursted into tears, same with DH he could contain his excitement.
All the while, our phones were off cuz we didnt want family members to suspect anything, my mum had called my mil and everyone was worried sick but thank God it ended in praise.
I still sit think about all that labour pains and wonder about how i survived mehnn it was just God. I dont know how soon i wanna take in again cuz i just cant forget all that pain yet but my mum says God has a way of making a woman forget all that and soon again i would start to think of having another child. Well, we shall see how it goes.
Thank you all for the prayers, answers to questions and congratulatory messages. God bless you and yours.
My fellow teamies that are yet to drop, may it be swift and smooth for you in Jesus Name.
I pray God makes it easier for other preggy mamas and grant our ATC sisters their desires.
Peace.....

You don't have to start walking if it makes you tired before you go and faint on the road. You could visit a friend or go to the mall and window shop/see a movie, attend a random church program. Places you could easily sit when you get tired. From my experience, the days you leave the house are always the easiest and it helps fight the feeling of depression. If you don't feel up to any of it tho just forget it, in a couple of months now when you are trying to get pregnant again wink you won't even remember this feeling.

After taking that my garden egg leave juice and condensed milk, my sisters, I start purge ooo. I kept on purging and purging. I took 3 bottles of sprite mixed with salt and sugar before I got myself back. Don't know if the concoction made me purge or my system just decided to purge itself. Next time, I will chew the thing, no juicing sef.
Just thought I should share since I posted it here before someone will decide to try it.
Good evening mamas.

Sorry mama. But i suspect the condensed milk. Why didnt u try it with ordinary liqiud milk?

When i was pregnant with my first,i juiced ugwu and mixed with liquid milk to boost my blood level and it really worked o cus i dint need any blood after d cs.

Team september.How are we holding up?
I had to go to the hospital on wednesday due to light contractions and mucus discharge.I am currently 32 weeks.Doctor scanned me and said cervix was closed and no fetal distress.He gave me ampicilin and salbutamol to stop the contractions.He ordered strict bed rest of 16hours per day.I went to work and my boss told me to leave the office and give her a call when baby comes(8weeks)!
Blood pressure 90/55.
I have been home since wed and its not easy just lying down.woke up around 5:00am with those contractions again.Hubby made me a cup of tea and I ate with two slices of bread.It stopped and i am lying in bed as i type feeling sorry for myself.
I am tired!!!!!!
